Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 6824820, member: 305911"] Pre flop: Agree that you can limp or raise here as you did and if you raise it should be more than a min raise. When villain calls here starting with 27 BBs and our raise is 3x I dont expect them to be calling wide. I would put them on something that they think has some value (ie I dont think they call here with 75 off or something like that unless your image is loose). Flop: As already mentioned, way too large a sizing but I slightly disagree with Fundiver above on the check jam route as a good option since this is a paired board and its the card I expect villain to most likely have if my thought process is correct that they are not calling light pre flop. That makes our flush draw a little weaker than normal due to the boat possibility by the end of the hand when all 5 cards come (which is what wound up happening). I think if we do check here and villain has Ax they actually will bet smallish due to they wouldnt want us to fold so we could just check call here if the sizing is small enough and see the turn and also have some showdown value with K high. I like betting the flop much more than checking, especially since we opened pre, and do highly agree here that it should be a smaller sizing to something like 1/3rd pot since Ax is never folding. Turn: Its another bet that is too large as if we are going to bet this big then we should be all in but we dont want to go all in here since we dont want Ax to even consider folding. Therefore, I think we bet small here again (setting up an easy river jam of half pot or so) or we check and act as though we are scared. The only thing I dont like about checking is if we get checked back for some odd reason and then river comes another diamond as it wound up. That would kill all action unless we are up against a boat so my preference would be to bet small here and hope villain comes along or just says 6 BBs out my 19 BBs left is enough for me to just put it all in and then of course we snap call. I may be overthinking a check back as not sure it would ever happen if the villain had what I thought they had after calling a pre flop raise and as played calling a large flop bet but I would not want to leave it to chance. After your bet getting raised only a few BBs more with the hand we have is an easy call. Unfortunately they got there. [/QUOTE]
