ok just a curiousity question here
no info on table players
i am holding a pair of 10s from the SB
1 limper so i raise it 3x pre, flop comes A A 9 rainbow
i raise it 3/4 of the pot and he flats (guess this is the problem with being out of position, anyways
Turn card is 5, now we have a flush draw which im not really scared of, i check and he raises, i flat it believing im ahead but not wanting to explode the pot, (my reasoning is i dont want to raise as i doubt a player will call a turn bet without having any part of the flop, but they can definately bluff with worse)
his raise was only half the pot anyway
The river was a jack wasnt sure if i was ahead or behind now, but i want to control the pot and hope for a free showdown,
suddenly he pot size bets, and i got the feeling he hadnt hit, his raise size didnt make sense, it was either he wanted payed off with his ace, or he didnt really have anything, either way he made it so only a hand beating him could call
so after deciding his betting pattern didnt make any sense i made the call, and he showed me a pair of 2s
again, it was a difficult spot which i wasnt comfortable with simply because i was oop, the power of being in position is a scary one xD
anyways, how could i have played this hand differently, or did i play it ok
how would you have played the hand?
