Pimp,
at 25m with AJs on the J93 dry flop when your opponent takes the check-raise line how often do you figure him to have hit the flop hard with a set or top two? I guess that % would still not be enough to fold out your TPTK hand in that spot.. but I just wouldn't feel too excited having to make the call. It would almost make it an easier call with an apparent draw on the board, right?
Ironically, I have busted out of two tournaments in today's session in very similar spot where I'd flopped TPTK with my AJ and was raised all in on the flop. I ran into a set and an over pair (incredibly..). Some fish at the level I play ($5-$10) at would sometimes show up with an over pair even after limp/calling pre.
There are spots in sngs when I will fold TPTK. Most of the time though I am going all the way with it in sngs. He is going to have KJ, QJ, QT, T8 or JT too often to fold in that spot imo. He will have a set or two pair more often because there are not many draws on this flop, but it isn't enough to fold TPTK.
Hi one Question to the Bet size regarding to the street. Lets take for example the QJs hand where u are up against the FD with 45s (As I remember). U Bet on both streets 2/3 pot size why u dont bet less on the turn there is no new scare card and villain gets less implied odds to call with draws, so actually the turn bet should be lower as the flop bet if a turn blanks?
Giving your opponent worse odds to draw when you have the best hand is a good thing if he will call it. You force him into a bigger mistake. Against weaker players you can make big bets when they are drawing and they don't care about the odds. They just want to see what the next card will be.
i have a question. u didint give an example when on river or turn is 3 heart or 3 diamond , what u do when ? check ? but pot is very big. isnt beter to push all in on turn if 3 diamons dont come ? and if he calls u have 4/1 to win i think is more beter , less risk
sorry for english
