Button (with 2000) and big blind (with 3000) call. Flop comes JsQs7d, I bet 400 into the pot of 950 to reduce flush, straight odds. How would you react if the button folds and BB put me all-in for my remaining 1900

I hate to fold here and be down 700 chips and left wondering if I just got bluffed off best hand, also trip 7's or JQ for two pair makes sense for the preflop calls. Do I just call and bitch if he flips those one of those hands over? Arg this type of thing happened to me twice today.

p.s. I play mostly online so physical tells are no good

I also agree that you need to bet bigger on the flop. I would really want to take this pot down on the flop. With a 400 bet You are giving very good odds to call or re-raise draws with a ton of draws on the board. I would put about a 3/4 to pot sized bet.

Since opp only had $11 or so left, and you pushed all in for like $70 or so my question is this.........

Do they rake that over bet portion (above the $11)...if so, you are paying a premium to be intimidating. far more cost effective to just bet enough to push him all in.

We all get caught with TPTK sometimes. Like most of these situations I base my decisionon the player making the bet, its he tight loose aggressive etc.. In the tournament example I'm calling 100% of the time. If I lose so be it. remember it goes the other way too!

yesterday I raised 4 x bb with AK and got one caller. flop came 67A, I bet pot he calls (fairly loose aggressive player) turn J. He goes all in. I call he flips over 67 suited the river is a Jack :-)
