A9s HU facing min-raise, $6.50

Results 1 to 8 of 8

    Default A9s HU facing min-raise, $6.50

    Is this always an AI here? Could I be checking this bet and then pushing/betting the flop? After all flops are difficult for an opponent to hit and a check-push may well cause our opp to fold??

    [58/58]

    Very easy shove for me with blinds as big as they are.

    I though this might be the answer. Unfortunately I was dominated by AJ, which only fuels my passionate hatred of the min-raise
