I think that your bet was a bit much on the flop. You actually want him to draw. You want to keep him in the hand. If he has a bare Ace he is drawing to 3 outs. Those are exactly the situations you want to let people draw. Was this online? It didn't seem like it. He probably would bet hard at that flop with a pp.
Your play wasn't bad just ran into a luckbox. Many people over defend their blinds. I do believe that your preflop raise should be in the 4 to 5 times the bb range not that 3.5 or so is that far off. |
