So then odds are that the flop will be something like T52, and they'll bet their queens or jacks, you'll take down a big pot. Or, they won't have anything and will fold to your bet, and you'll still win money.
I am somewhat confused in your response.
But, to get to your point (I think) I'll take that Ax call everytime heads up. In that case, he may even continue when he flops his X for a pair. And he may even try to bluff the flop every once in awhile too
Let's take a look: (simple example)
KK
AX
(preflop pot 13.00)
No ace on the flop approx. 4 times (13x4=52 profit)
KK
AX
ace on the flop
you fold (1x13=13)
Total gain out of 5 hands: 39
-----
Your idea of pushing him out
KK
Ax
You bet 10 - everyone including him folds
You win $3.00
(3x5 hands = 15.00)
Total profit 15.00 for the 5 hand same scenerio
Which one would you rather take?
