    Default Overpair and a GSSD on a Coordinated Board

    Villain is an idiot so I'm having a hard time respecting his bets.
    A couple hands before this one he lead into me twice (flop/turn) and folded when I raised his weak turn bet.



    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (9 handed)

    UTG+1 ($66.40)
    MP1 ($44.80)
    MP2 ($55.85)
    MP3 ($84.80)
    CO ($17)
    Button ($69)
    SB ($19)
    Hero ($109.70)
    UTG ($46.30)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with , .
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls $1, 5 folds, SB completes, Hero raises to $4, UTG+1 calls $3, SB folds.

    Flop: ($9) , , (2 players)
    Hero bets $6, UTG+1 raises to $12

    Hero.....???
    Villain has $50 left.





    Results in white below:
    I shoved for $100, he thought for a minute and then called.
    He had T7 and rivered a FH. I didn't improve.

    Hero has Jc Jd (two pair, jacks and tens).
    UTG+1 has Td 7h (full house, tens full of sevens).
    Outcome: UTG+1 wins $133.80. Hero wins $43.30.
    I think I'm going to give up playing poker.........and take up repeatedly hitting myself in the nuts

    that god-damn min raise again. I maybe raise him half his stack, decent fold equity and you can then call if he pushes, but pushing in the first place probably gets you to the same point anyway I suppose (if he seemed a solid player i'd go for half stack raise, but if he's an idiot you're probably right here).
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    you are oop and there is a limper, if you are raising off the blind here you need to raise more than to $4.

    i fold the flop.

    even if you are ahead, he probably has a 9, or a pair and a gutshot, or something, you are never WAY ahead and could easaily be far behind.

    wait for a better spot against an idiot.

    Damn TA, you should write a book or something. You have this WAY of explaining things...
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.
