Do I need to cbet this flop? The problem is i dont see too many worse hands that call but at the same time a bunch of overcards might fall on the turn/river

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

saw flop

Button ($55.60)
SB ($50.25)
BB ($50)
UTG ($72.05)
UTG+1 ($52.50)
MP1 ($75.10)
MP2 ($50)
Hero (CO) ($50)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 9, 9
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.50, 2 folds, Hero bets $2.50, 2 folds, BB calls $2, UTG+1 calls $2

Flop: ($7.75) 10, 5, 7 (3 players)

You have to bet this flop so overcards dont have the chance to hit. I imagine the first two players would have bet out with any 10

cbet is standard and you have the option to reevaluate on the turn.

No. and you shouldn't only be double-barelling with TP or better!


Lots of people will float flops, and often they pick up draws on the turn. Many players also will call 2 streets with middle pairs.

You made another thread titled 'I always get floated'. Irony?
<@d0zer> how will you learn if I don't berate you harshly?
