I Checked the flop with the intention of check-raising it. I figure I am in the lead here so I only check raise to 5 dollars. Should I CR more? Anyway, after the non flush turn card I bet 7 dollars into an 18 dollar pot. Should I bet more? He pushes and I call since I have already put half my stack in and with no reads I just figured to be ahead here still more often than not. KK doesnt seem likely since he didnt raise proflop I have 67 so 66 or 77 is pretty unlikely. The only real hand I was scared of was 10-K...

Results below:

gt281h80 shows [ 6d, 7h ] two pairs, sevens and sixes.
StumpySU doesn't show [ 2d, Kh ] a pair of kings.
gt281h80 wins $48.25 from the main pot with two pairs, sevens and sixes.

Ni han.

89 is a possible holding as well.

Yeah youre right, I just left that out of my typing notes, but I have to lead the turn right? The 2 things I really want your analysis on are the flop CR and the turn play.

I donno man, I just starting playing these games again. If there is a chance worse hands raise (which doesn't seem to be the case often in these post-flop weak games) then I like betting out more. I also would check/raise the flop to maybe $6, more if you can get it. You certainly have to lead the turn.

I thought about raising the flop more, but with the limped pot was pretty sure I was ahead. Leading the turn with 7 dollars pretty much commits me to call his push right? At least with no reads it does, right?

I've folded getting better pot odds. Reads good.
