    if he reraises pre flop do i fold

    Mostly, you have the button.  I dont hate a flat to fold most flops.

    Its a tricky flop in some ways as you only really want to raise vs hand that give you action, many insta mucking to the resistance.

    But he had a hand to pay you, kind of.

    Only advice I'd give would be play straight forward if you are still learning bud.

    Many people may disagree here I dont know.  But JsQs looks pretty but just isnt that strong.  I dont think I enter for a raise, even on the button after a limp.  I'm happier to take it 4 way flopping a whoppr, as opponent wont really call wth worse then Q9.

    But it isnt a terrible spot really, just can land you in trouble post.

    If your happy to raise pre, to fold tricky boards its fine, but it would be unwise to fall in love with a top pair flopped hand.

    Credit to you for being open about wanting to learn though sir.

    the trouble is i would probably fall in love with top pair because he just flats my button raise i dont know why he never reraised

    Obv wasnt sat at table but with limping K's UTG am guessing he is confident someone in later seat will do the work for him and pay him off weak, potentially you am afraid bud.

    I'd just fold pre.

    Again peeps will say NO you SHOULD raise with QJ here but I don't feel you need to.

    hand is fine. I raise less on flop, if you are going to make it that big just shove
  • edited July 2011
    all is fine, depends how much he raises pre and if he does raise you have to change your expectations for the flop if you call the 3 bet. You would want to see str/Flush draws rarther than TP.

    I like the button raise with QJs here and you played the hand well.

    if you are reraised preflop you should fold it though imo.
