Sigh!!
If you're not shoving the flop then I think you should have done so on the turn
With a limper I prob shove pre
The flop bet size is horrible imo, compounded by no follow up on the turn when the turn card brings a flush draw and opens up all kinds of straights.
Thinking the hand through, villian has limp-called from UTG. Without knowing too much about him/her we can more than likely rule out AA-JJ and for the most part AK. You've hit your gin flop but from the villians range what are we going to get paid from that doesn't have us beat?
PP Tens downwards are not going to put another chip in the pot. A weakly played AK, KQ, AJ or mabe even a fishy AQ/AT will play us off here plus do not need more cards to do so. You have a high rainbow board and there is no point slow playing here. By doing so (I don't count the 100 as a real bet with the pot size, it might as well have been a check) you have allowed redraws for pairs to hit sets and for gut shot draws for AQ/AT.
I'm either shoving on the flop or betting 500 depending on my knowledge of the villian.
Never shove pre-flop to a first position limper with 13 BB's in this situation. Whenever you see a first position limper, alarms bells should be ringing. It's the oldest trick in the book with AA.
Your pre-flop raise was just fine and left you enough in the tank if he came over the top.
I think you know what the problem was - your flop bet was truly awful. You should have made it at least 700 to let him know you're pot-committed and deny him the odds to play on.
Disagree.
And obv his limp isn't polarized to just premiums as he had ATo
Obv sometimes he has aces but those big hands are such a small part of his range,and we have a ton of FE over a standard limpers range and sometimes he calls with like KT or 55 or something stupid like JTs (i've seen people do worse).
Push />Fold>>>>>>Open raise 1/3 of our stack imo
The bet after the fop was totally wrong and should have been at least a pot size bet if not more. If I take the hand down there, I do not mind. If I get re-raised, then I am all-in. They were still two cards to come and anything can happen once they are shown.
If I'm wrong, and it's 13BBs (but it really looks like 17 as take the Villain's balance at the turn then add this to the total pot and you get the balance below the river action) then I flip a coin as to push or fold. It's a tricky one, especially as we have no reads on oppo. Definitely not raising though.
As played, plz plz plz shove flop if you must raise pre.
Oh, and raise to 325/350 rather than 400.
