Hey folks!
Not entirely sure whether this is the place to ask for advice, but without further ado... I've been having issues playing bottom/small middle pairs on the flop.
A lot of the time I'm just unsure what to do... Espacially when oop.
Bet them to protect from equity or play it conservative and check....?
Just for instance:
I hold, say, 56 suited and the flop comes 5 7 T rainbow. I'm oop with 2 more players behind me in an unraised pot.
A lot of the times I find myself just checking coz eyy, in the end, chances are the other 2 players behind me got a better piece of the board then me...
Then both players behind me check as well and the turn comes a J and once again I think to myself, why didn't I just bet...? What turncard was I waiting for by checking? Obviously no card higher than say a 6... The J might have very well married one of the holdings of the gents to the left of me...
But then I see a lot of good players doing the same in such a spot... (So they just check a lot of the times)
What is your opinion on this folks? When betting or checking your bottom or middle pairs on the flop and why? (Either in position or oop)
I very much appreciate your advice/input. Thanks a whole lot in advance and take care!
