I think its ok to go broke on this flop w/ 2 pairs, I see in Villain's range many draws...

Hello,

1st of all use hand converter! Otherwise it's all depending on the player, it's HU you must at least write some notes on him what you have got, it's easy fold against different opponents and it could be also easy push depending on the oppoenent. Against unknown I might even fold this hand.

Best regards,
Rensu

I would check the flop intending to checkraise my opponent. It's definitely fine to go broke with this hand I think, so it's okay.

Hi all,

Why'd you donkbet flop? In any case looking to get it in on this flop is good.


Thanks for your advices guys.

"Why'd you donkbet flop? "

Well sometimes I like to play the maniac and bet/raise preflops and flops to trap a perfectly unknown opponent like this one, and profit later on from him misjudgment :)

Back to the table... after a healthy self-exclusion _biggrin:

PS. I'll use hand converter next time

Betting here is only really good with history if you:

a. know he will bluff or semi-bluffraise the flop. Or if you have a strong draw and you think he will "raise you for information" (lol free money).

b. know that he will check behind a nice wide range that has good equity against your hand. More applicable if you have JT here and he checks back with a good frequency and balances his check behinds.

Otherwise check/raising is the default.
