AK in the SB

[JL]

Not much of a read on BB. He's tight and he seems like good player.

Check/call. The flop minraise might mean trips or 2 pair. He could even be trying to buy a free card with a flush. But with just TPTK I think you have to give him the free card he paid for...

[JL]

A check after calling a min-raise shows so much weakness though does it not?

[freechus9]

Yea it does. On second thought, then, bet maybe 1/2 to 3/4 the pot and fold to a raise? If he calls this bet, then I think if the river isn't a club you can bet the same amount of the pot again. I'm still figuring out my own strategy so my advice may not be that valid

In SB I usually raise 3+number of limpers x BB. So in this case that would be $0.50 but at these lower limits I would go even $0.75. You are going to a flop vs 4 opponents and usually 1 pair is no good.

I reraise that minbet to the size of the pot to see where I stand. He comes back over the top, I can let it go. He just calls I put him on flush draw and play accordingly. As is, I put him on Ax or Qx and I think you are ahead after everyone else folded.
