Sorry about the layout, not too sure how to do the fancy posts :oops:

This was my first time on 25NL so I'm not too sure about flat calling preflop. The more I look at the flop bets the more I think I should have folded, correct?

Thanks for any help

:twisted:

Fold that frop. Your raise was great - it got you info. The info was I have a monster - he has either AA,KK 44, or the 2. And even if he is bluffing you - so what, you'll get it back from him later.

Haha, thanks for the replies/welcome. After a few minutes of patting myself on the back for winning $25 I figured maybe it was a bad call.

DaHorror...were you in the room?

What would be the worst hand you'd all call with in that situation?

QQ+, 44!, 22!!!

I may even lay JJ here. QQ I would go deep in the tank for a while (before calling and crying when he shows AA, KK!)

Was just wrapping up clearing my $150 bonus (900 hands tho - ugh).
I didn't know you were a fellow FTR'er or I woulda given ya a shout out.

And as far as what hands I call down with - it's probably a similar range to what was stated above - AA - QQ. However, as seems popular nowadays, I am not unlikely to play passively here and just call the flop bet - see where he wants to go from there. The biggest problem with that play is that overcards are likely, and then you're hurtin. I think you played it just fine - and boy did you run into a very ballsy bluffbot LAG!

Congrats on the hand. Now don't do that again :-P
