Hi Gerv,
is this spot played right? Since it is freeplay I overbet the flop just a little bit. When he basically minraised me I thought that this is not yet the time where I would like to shove because I think that he may be only trying something and either I will pay him big or he will just fold. Therefore I decided to just raise normally. When he called there was no discussion and I just simply shoved turn.
However I´m not sure what would I do if he reraised my 1,20 raise to AI. I would probably call considering the odds I would get.
What do you think?
Opponent is 12/0/0 after 19 hands and no more special info on him.
