reraise more preflop. Other than that, I play this the same way.

Don't minraise preflop.

Bet more on flop.

Hand plays differently from there.

Work on your bet sizing. You're giving your opponents great odds to draw out on you with a wide range of hands.

[NoBBiR]

Don't minraise, make a real raise preflop, to 1k or so. Other than that, I don't think you're folding on that board, it's too drawy to lay down kings.

This isn't the tourney forum either.

re read the people above this post.

Don't ever min re pre flop. Any hand you're up against now knows what you have, has great odds, and is disguised. It is an AWFUL plan. Unless you hate money.

[Yahkin]

Has anybody said not to minraise this PF? I don't think you need to go 1k, but def 750.

Bet the pot on the flop...make him pay to draw.

QJss? That's about the only thing that makes sense other than pocket aces here.

[jmbreslin]

Something like TT is more likely than QJs, no?

[Fluke]

He had 7c 8c.

BTW, it wasn't a min raise... min raise would've been to 400. Thanks.
