[QUOTE="Aballinamion, post: 5646399, member: 289533"] You raised only 2x preflop from EP which isn't a great idea: at the micros, players love to call more than they should and when we are out of position, it doesn't matter if we are holding AA or if we do own a Top Set, we are not in a good shape. What happens here is that by raising preflop so little you make the odds much better for the player in the MP to call not only with pocket pair but with a bunch of connectors and so the player in the SB. It is harder for the SB to widen its preflop cold calling range when it comes a 3x raise, but when it comes a 2.5x and 2x, many players are going to call more than they should with a bunch of pocket pairs, suited cards and connectors (suited and off-suited) After we do raise and get two callers ahead our AA, KK, QQ, JJ etc lost a lot of potential, and we don't own the Ace of Spades, which would be something that completely changes the complexion of the hand. When we are out of position, our posture should be to be checking more often than c-betting, because if MP or SB raises us we are in a pretty out of light spot. Besides, we cannot simply expect to c-bet 1/2 pot after two players called, because the pot is bigger than a single raised pot. The postflop The Flop Here is the point and the core of the hand, we c-bet OOP for 1/2 pot and SB check-raises for more than the size of the pot (4x the time of your 1/2 pot c-bet) and this is very nasty because the flop is so connected and Villain has a lot of bluffs on its range when it does it such as FDs of Spades and the SDs. We could be jamming right on the flop or call to jam the turn if we do own the Ace of Spades, but we don't own it. Very complicated scenario dear mate, but I guess we cannot be folding on the flop yet. If SB sends another barrel OTT there is nothing we can do, but folding here seems too much NIT. Unless, of course, you already have a decent hand history with Villain/SB to have some kind of certainty that it only check-raises flops with two pair or sets or very strong made hands.
