Pushing preflop is bad, you still have a lot of chips to play with. I might raise slightly more (1200-1300) but 1000 isn't too small either. On that flop I don't know if you can really get away from it no matter what you do.

**A10Chief** · 09-28-2006 10:20 AM

I think the line is standard for your position. How would you have handled it if you were in EP?

**Phantaroth** · 09-28-2006 12:47 PM

I think maybe you want to raise it to 1,5000 pre flop... this will still probley happen but you're making sixes guy think harder.

Still I think you played it very well. That flop seems like a must push because it is draw heavy and he checked, although the check is a little suspicious... You have to bet that flop... could you bet it 2,000-2,500 then fold it when he pushes all in? :\

**A10Chief** · 09-28-2006 02:04 PM

No way I'm putting over half my stack in and then folding an overpair.

**Sprayed** · 09-28-2006 03:13 PM

I don't mind a push preflop. If they fold you pick up a decent amount of chips. If they come along you have a great chance to double-up or at least close to it. It also saves thinking about how to play the hand on the flop. If I were to raise pre, it would probably be around 1200-1400.

1500 pre

dance when you see the flop

EP I still raise I think, but a 3x type raise.

**Rondavu** · 09-30-2006 11:46 AM

Like 9 out of 10 people don't realize low pocket pairs are shit at high blind levels. He'd probably call any raise you threw at him. Bottom line it was destiny.

**johnny_fish** · 10-01-2006 06:18 PM

There's no interesting decision here. I like raising 1000 a little better than 1500 because of the BB.

	It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside? Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.
