Learning to bet properly
I'm not too happy with how I bet in NL. It seems that I either win a small pot (am I betting too much?) or I lose a big one (did I let them draw too cheaply?). I'm still trying to find that magical FTR way to bet to maximize the wins and minimize the losses. Anwyay, this hand is a perfect example:
Cryptologic
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.15/$0.25
10 players
Converter
Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is BB with J 8
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls $0.25, UTG+2 calls $0.25, 3 folds, CO (poster) checks, Button folds, SB calls $0.1, Hero (poster) checks.
Flop: 7 9 T ($1.25, 5 players)
SB checks, Hero bet xx
So, I flop the nut hand (that's still vulnerable to some draws) in a small family pot. Interesting hand in that if someone's playing for the Ace high flush, 2 of his outs will leave him in a lot of pain. What kind of EP bet is best here?
Off topic: what's up with the 'fros in the avatars?
