argh, a micro stakes hand

Ok, so im getting about 4-1 here and I put him on a probable flush draw after that min flop bet. My hand has little chance of improving and if it does improve it doesnt beat the flush. :cry:

Hes got about 1.80 left after the .40 bet on the turn. While i think its possible hes got a weaker straight, i think thats just too horrible of a card to continue. Is this nitty or a good Plan of action?

tough spot. theres prolly no value in raising and not much to defend against, if he has the A:s: he doesnt fold anyway. Call turn and call reasonable bets on a non spade river

I agree w XTR1000 here. That said on boards this draw heavy you need to increase your flop bet sizing. You raised him $.30 in a $.52 pot. Betting 60% pot is no good on a board like this. I would full pot the flop, (raise to $.57).

A full pot size raise would be to $.62 as you have to call his bet, then raise the pot.

yeah i just got bet pot script after i posted this hand, just right click and it pots it for me, i notice a lot more people folding now to my cbets and 2 barrels

u need twice as much folding equity to make pot sized cbets profitable compared to 1/2 pot. Choose your boards wisely to cbet that big

err i meant right click 3/4's it, mouse wheel pots it

im not cbetting every flop or makin them that big
but there were a few more situations that were similar to this where it worked out

is there a way to filter where you cbet in poker tracker, i only have v2
