Hey, I was just wondering how my play post-flop is. I think I should have raised pre-flop according to the SHC and the fact that they just did a min-raise, but I was getting tired and just about to stop playing. Just curious if making the bet is worth it in the long run. I'm still working on the mathematical portion of the game.
I figured that I wouldn't make a donkbet since I just called the hand.
Let me know what you think.

Thanks!

Hi deving42,

As my personal view about 88/77/KQ on the blinds, you can either call here or raise. calling gives you 7.4:1 for setvalue.

If you decide to raise you would raise it to $1.75 and I think that's decent enough to get heads-up.

Postflop you get your trips on a Mono:h board thus I would always reraise or push it all-in as soon as possible to protect your hand against A:hK:d for instance. If he has the flush, you have an estimate 25% of getting a fullhouse. mostly on micro's they will ignore the monoboard and call you with like K:dJ:s and pay you out.

So I would do the following:
Preflop: Call
Flop: Check/Raise or lead out potsized.
Check/raise to 3-3.5x his bet so you can go all-in ASAP.
Turn: You dont want to see a so if you are still can decide on the turn and you see a 4th , abort mission.

I hope it makes sense

I think you should reraise allin on flop and dont slowplay sets on boards like that-just an advice. I lost quite a few sets in this kind of situation when slowplayed.

thanks for the replies.
Now that i look back at it when I'm a little more awake I definitely should have raised.

push pre is standard, but call is not terrible...

on the flop i would definitely donk to avoid giving freecards to flushdraws
as played you HAVE to checkraise
