Hi,
I thought it would be fun to discuss this hand i played a few days ago.
This is a game played by regulars so they know each other better than I know them.
The opponent has been loose with his calls and I get a free flop with K8o.
I check mid pair on flop looking for more improvement of my hand before getting too agro vs loose players who probably have better math knowledge of the game than I use.
On the turn i hit 2 pair and Sin leads out with 120 on a pot of 225.
I raise 80% to 318 and my villain call and Sin folds.
River comes and pot is 981. I lead out with 40% = 404 and is called.
I find when I bet more I get less callers so I tend to keep my bets a bit smaller to induce a call from weaker holdings but with flush draw on the board I felt 80% on the turn was enough to make someone fold the draw.
Should I have over pot bet the turn or what action would you take here or was this player just too loose and not caring about the results?
Sorry about the text. I tried to use the HC here but it says the history is in the wrong format. If someone could help with this also it would be appreciated.
