What to do here?



Posted Mon Jun 12, 2006 8:37 am GMT by kingetje
I always think its difficult to know what to do in these situations. i flop the wheel, do i start ramming and jamming or do i slowly build a pot?

can someone run through what kind of line to take? i'll post the later betting rounds and streets afterwards because it definitely gets more interesting and i'd like to know what are the best roads to take.. this hand ended up a real beauty by the way

I'd bet about 1/2 the pot here. No need to ram as there isnt a flush draw or a decent straight draw out there.

Btw, i consider what you limped in with as trash and would have folded pf.

Jam the pot post. But never ever call from early position with that hand again.
