Message: [QUOTE="Xavier, post: 1358143, member: 45194"] You both played that hand pretty badly imo. He played it worse. Heres my analysis of your play. 1 Preflop - This is a clear fold. In the face of a huge raise and call like that you should fold small pairs especially when it costs a quarter of your stack to call. 2 On Flop - You need to bet here now you're in the hand. Since neither bet, its likely they both have overcards and you have the best hand. By checking you give a free card to both players, to improve to the best hand. 3 On Turn - You don't know where you stand here as he may have a big pair, but I think just calling is correct, and making a decision on the river for the rest of your chips. Assuming hes not an idiot pushing all in will just make hands that have you beat call and worse hands fold. Thats not what happened here as he called with a ridiculous hand, but generally just calling is the best play. [/QUOTE]
