    Default Set against a LAGG

    Villian is 35/20 and aggressive. I know I left money behind here.

    Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em, $.10 BB (10 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    CO ($6.95)
    Button ($1.90)
    SB ($5.95)
    BB ($6.03)
    UTG ($7.09)
    Hero ($9.75)
    UTG+2 ($18.60)
    MP1 ($2.05)
    MP2 ($14)
    MP3 ($8.25)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with Q, Q.
    1 fold, Hero raises to $0.35, UTG+2 calls $0.35, 1 fold, MP2 raises to $1.55, 5 folds, Hero calls $1.20, UTG+2 folds.

    Flop: ($3.60) Q, 6, 2 (2 players)
    Hero checks, MP2 bets $3.6, Hero raises to $7.2, MP2 folds.

    Final Pot: $14.40

    I should have just called him....what then on the turn?

    Hope he puts me on a diamond draw and check if it misses? What if a diamond hits? He'll have to be weary with the smooth call on the flop.

    Would a push to his raise be at all in order on the flop?

    You just got re raised 15 BB's, hes not putting you on a diamond draw. Smooth call and then let him bluff or stab at the turn .. Smooth call again.. Then get your money in there on the river. If a diamond hits hes either going to think you got a diamond or you dont, we havent got to that yet. Half pot it on the turn if its checked to you no matter what it is. Matter of fact just push the turn.. You have too little left behind after your 7.20 re raise. When you hit like this into a PF re raiser... You should let him take charge a little when you set.

    Lead the flop, push to a raise. Check - minraise screams "I HAVE AWESOME CARDS, PLEASE CALL OR PUSH!"
    Don't call at these limits...

    If he folds, he folds...

    Fasi -- I'm the first to act on the turn, not last....how would you play that if I just called the flop

    Renegade -- How much to lead the flop for? Then on the turn if he just calls?

    I lead for about $2.80 here, but then again hopefully by now the table knows my 'standard' flop bet is about 3/4ish of the pot so its standard for them to see that; i wouldn't deviate from what your normal cont. bets etc are.

    3/4 pot - full pot on turn if he calls

    I lead out on that flop.
    Hey knucklehead! Bonk!
