Another hand...


Here's another hand from $0.10/$0.20 NL at Laddies.

I had 22 on the button and limp in with 3 others.

The flop is 782 rainbow. So I've got a set. And am vulnerable to a higher set or straight draw.

The first guy min bets and the next raises 2/3 the pot. Phil Gordon states that, assuming someone is betting a draw, it's a good idea to raise their bets. As if you call and they miss their draws, you won't be able to get more out of them in later rounds. I therefore re-raised the pot back at him. The min-better folded and the raiser called.

The turn was an Ace. I didn't think the other guy had Aces as he would have raised pre-flop. And other than giving him two pair, I don't see how it could really have help him. Anyway, he checked, so I bet the pot and he called.

The river was a scary Jack. Completing a straight draw. However, I didn't think that the chances of my opponent have 9T were particularly high. So I re-raised his pot-sized bet all in. He called. And I won the pot. Nice.
