So 1st - Should I have C Bet on the flop, especially since I was the pre-flop aggressor. Maybe at that point the villain had any suited Ace, maybe AQ or AJ. I dont think he had AK or AT because then I think he would have bet my check having a pair with a top kicker. I have noticed at this stakes, a 2/3rd pot will get guys to fold on the flop if they dont have a strong hand.
2nd - and this is obvious especially after plugging this into PS - Why did I open betting after the flop lol. As I reviewed this hand I realized how stupid this was because at this point, very slim chances he is folding, especially if he has an Ace. At the time my mindset was a bluff making him think I had an Ace, but when I look back, my betting doesnt represent an Ace. Really I think if I CBet it changes the entire perception of my hand.
So tell me what you guys think about this one. Did I answer my own question lol.
PS - Poker Snowie did suggestion when I reviewed this hand to check on the flop
Thanks!
