4th hand, absolutely no reads. How is this line? Is checking the flop generally more profitable?

I think ur overevualting a situation that could go either way depending on what he has.

Flop bet is fine.

I see many double posts on here from taipain and others discussing HHs that are basic common situations and most on this board. I think everyone could actually figure out there own mistakes if they just gave about 5 minutes of effort into each one of their HHs, its human nature to want to discuss stuff even if your sure about something or aren't because you like to be praised

Must be what he said earlier. Sorry to post a "basic common situation".

Taipan im not trying to say that, I think your getting way too techincal with the odds and this poker tracker thing.


KISS keep/it/simple/stupid is a method ive been using and the help of a few poker books has made my game go back on track.

And to say this HH is any different then one I post on this forum or anyone else of that matter is "basic" would be true for every situation.


You played it fine, I like the bet to see where your at.
