hand history

hey guys i was wondering if you could take a look at this particular hand and how i could have played it better, i'm assuming i should have bet more on the flop to win it right there but i didn't have any pairs on the board.

Actually, not a bad flop for big slick heads-up. With that stack I might push on the flop.

I'm wondering. If he had pushed all-in after the turn (about $5 and change) do you think the other guy would fold? I'd have to see other hands this guy played, but what are the chances this guy held onto a 7 or a 2?

I think the biggest problem was showing aggression ($3 pre-flop, then $5 post flop) then checking on the turn. It screamed weakness and the other guy took advantage.

this guy called a PFR of 6xBB with 56d? then called a almost pot-size bet when he missed the flop?

he's missed the flop, has no draws, and is being bet into and doesn't fold.

either he's very bad, or very good.

either way, you've got to give him credit - he represented a hand and took down the pot with the lesser hand.

project - it looks like he decided to play the hand regardless of his cards; i doubt you could have gotten him to fold.

I think a turn bet might have clinched this one, I might would have gone for a half pot sized bet on the flop and bet similar on the turn hoping to see a free SD. I'm not to kean on betting the pot on the flop with a miss as you usually have to follow it with a PSB on the turn can get very expensive. Obviously you have to 1/2 PB when you have a hand too otherwise you are giving away to much information.
