    cbet more .20, 0.5 on turn , shove river . if he had TJ or AA Shit happens but at 2nl they'll call down with any Ax, two pair chase their flushes etc.

    What do you mean by too cute with your cbets? Why did you choose that size? Explain that and then what people say will give you a much better idea as to why what you did was awful.

    I'd probably go 0.16-0.20 on the flop. It's one thing if you have AAA and you block a lot of top pairs, but here any/every Ax will call and every QJ/QT/KT/KJ will likely also call the flop.

    Thanks..ctl-f5 worked a treat..

    What I mean by 'too cute' (not very helpful description sorry ) is that I was trying to get as much money into the pot with Villian folding so thought 1/2 pot cbets were better than 3/4 pot cbets. I realise now that I should just stick with the standard 3/4 cbet and get ready to shove on the river. Also, though its only 2nl there are regulars around who may start to read this if I change my cbets sizing depending on my hand. When you have the nuts on the river, then you want to try to bet the max that Villian will call.
