Your line is completlely consistent with any pair 88 - and the thought of you folding it here is absurd....Call me crazy but his line looks like 6x....14 11 1.8 is really nitty - and id def need a read that hes getting out of line to make a turn call..let alone a river call....Im also not sure why we are even betting the turn - do you really think were getting 3 streets out of 22 33 44? ....... .hmm rethinking this hand a bit...Are you assuming that...1 he never takes this line with a med pair 88-JJ - and pretty much plays bluff-catcher with them?...If so - hes certainly polarized between nuts air here.

]]> Comment on When To NOT Watch The Flop by Christina Carabini http://talkflop.com/blog/2010/04/when-to-not-watch-the-flop/comment-page-1/#comment-8328 Christina Carabini Sat, 25 Jun 2011 06:57:54 +0000 http://talkflop.com/blog/?p=398#comment-8328 While its easy to get lost in a hand on the flop and tougher still to learn how to navigate the scores of tricky river situations that one is faced with in the course of a given session the pre-flop decisions tend to be pretty straightforward. If Im playing a short pot where only a couple other players are in the hand my decision on whether or not to raise pre-flop with AK in the blinds hinges on whether I think my opponents will lay down their hands if they more-or-less miss the flop.

I would like to have around 20x the intial raise in implied odds to call. If you don't have the odds, then don't get down when your dream flop comes. It won't happen often enough to warrant the pre-flop call. The AA hand, yea...bad fold. If he really hit a 2 or has 44, do you really think he would push into you like that? Doubtful, more than likely he would look to checkraise you all in. His bet screamed "scared". He was probably thinking you had the AK and didn't want you to see the turn or river, so he pushed you off the hand. If I were in your seat, I would have put him on 33-QQ (not 44), and complete air like KQ or a big Ace. Nothing wrong with peeling a flop with the KTs if you are deep enough in chips.

Still really hard to getaway from your hand. It’s very rare for players to raise a turn bet without a huge hand, unless they are a really good thinking player.
