i want to know where those ladies stand against the flopped ace right away. if i'm beat already, i want out early and if he's drawing i wanna make him overpay to do it.
Betting out the flop hard accomplishes absolutely nothing. He calls if he has an ace, and calls if he has a draw. I find out no information at all.
