You want to win, right? Link to post Share on other sites
copernicus 0 Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Theres no definitive answer without knowing the stacks. Generally I agree the flop bet is too small, it shows that you are concerned about the A and he can take a cheap stab with a small raiseThe turn check is a bit confusing but with a safe board it could well be to induce a bluff from you on the river, so folding looks like the right play.
