a hand and an absolute unknown

i have no raising range on this flop, it is not usual that people will call a raise here w/ Jx, but it is also possible that this villain will, i dont know that cause he is unknown an i prefer calling my all range here to keep his as wide as possible.

vs the average 25nl poker player i consider calling flop is better then raising and w/o no info on villain i do assume he is an average player.

the only draw is a FD and even then we have equity vs his made flushes since we hold the Kd and we have position that we can use to our advantage on turn / river.

when you flat his flop 3bet i think you make it clear you have a NFD /overpairs/ AJ , because 90% of times you will shove your sets here and fold your weak Jx and small FD's.


@bikes
you can rofl all you want, but the last year i donk think i ever made a post that was stupid and/or w/o arguments and/or w/o math behind it.
my posts were and will be ones written by a nit poker player and they will have tight opinions about poker play but they will never be -EV. my opinions will sometimes less +EV then the optimal play,but they will always be +EV.
like every post written is my opinion, not an advice and i state that in my signature.
when i said " see i am right" that wasnt an arogant remark mister, was a statement based on the math done w/ the ranges of an average 25nl player vs our actions, and i say average player because we have no info on the villain and w/o info i assume a player is average , not bad, not good , until i have reasons from his play to think otherwise. if you want you can assume w/o info that this is a bad poker player and stack off this flop w/ 5x if you like, is your choice and i will try to argument to you why i think that is wrong but i will never say "rofl" w/o any explanation.

and now, to be arogant so i can a deserve a " rofl", if you cant or dont know how to see if i am right/wrong w/ my statement in my first post of this thread, just say and i will teach you the math you need to see that vs the average 25nl player calling this flop in this spot is better +EV then raising.

i find this really interesting. I assume unknowns to be 'average unknowns', not average regs for the stake. Average unknowns don't keep their money long and i'm happy to run wide value lines against them. KJ would be about where i'd change my play here.

i agree that calling flop is +EV, but i'm after max EV in spots like this.

p.s. good post

Hey Razvan, instead of resigning yourself to being a nit who is barely better than BE at 50NL, and writing walls of text defending your nitty positions, maybe your time would be better spent figuring out why your approach is sub-optimal.

Bikes was kind enough to give you the correct answer, work out why it is.
