  1. No reads as only played a few hands at the table. So....

    Do you bet the flop and hope one of the callers has a flopped set, big Ace or fancies playing something back at me.

    Or

    Check and see a turn in position with the nuts and hope someone catches up?

    [ ] Good reasoning for betting
     
  9. Easiest bet I've ever seen. Christ you are against 3 ppl that called a raise pre so there is a decent pot already out there. Goal should be to take down the pot in this spot and if you happen to get more out of it then its a bonus.
  10. Thanks for the responses. I Just feel like I always choose the low risk option as opposed to the most +EV.
    I Obviously shove and it folds around.

    wow this has to be a level.
  12. don't be angry you didn't get any action, you pretty much need to hope u coolered someone on the flop to get action because you can't check and let a straight draw hit
  13. well played
