    Default Well played?

    I am not sure if I should have raised him when he raised me. I figured I would get him on the river, but now I think it might have been a mistake. I was also thinking he was pulling a bluff on me, so I called, and hoped for him to hit one of his cards. Let me know what you think of this, and don't be shy. I am here to learn.

    Preflop, just calling from EP-MP with this hand is ok if you know the tables is passive. I say raise.

    FLop. I bet .08-.10

    Turn. Ill either make minimum bet .02, or check. Turn. Ill make a minimum re-raise here to him.

    You play it routinely.

    I probably would have pushed all in when he raised me on the turn. It runs the risk of betting into AA, unlikely or he'd have played the PF & flop stronger, KK, also unlikely or he would have played the PF stronger, or AT, possible with the PF limp but how many people check from the SB when they've flopped a full house and there was no real PF action?

    thintim, i dont think hes worried about behind behind here. he wants to try and maximize his winnings

    you played it fine. the .06 on the turn after the .10 bet on the flop is a little strange, but i guess it worked here. he just didnt have a hand or didnt hit his draw and folded on the river. its not really that hard to play big hands like these. just bet it and hope somebody has something worth calling
    it's better to be pissed off than pissed on

    I think you should have actually raised the turn. At that point if he felt he had any chance of improving to the best hand he would have called... on the river he'll only call if he DID improve. Assuming he's a dog to improve, then you're a dog to get a river bet called... so bet the turn.
