Bottom 2 pair on the flop are both a great and dangerous hand. On one hand, it is hard to put a player on and can beat any pair. On the other hand it is very susceptible to drawing hands. Therefore, I tend to play them a bit more aggressively than trips due to their susceptibility – I generally don’t want anyone to see another card. However, people too often just refuse to give up that TP occasionally leading me to disastrous results.
For example, I recently got killed holding 9 5 os in bb. Flop is Q 9 5. I raise a bet and all our chips eventually end up in the pot. His Q 10 beats me by getting a 2 on the turn and another 2 on the river. Counterfeited by 2’s…. This is not the first time something like this has happened to me prompting my questioning of my aggressive strategy on the flop.
