Thanks for the response. I don't think I agree with what you are getting at though. Do we only bet for value? And I ask that as someone who does not like bluffing in a lot of spots.
BUT, like I said to a previous poster, I think that a check raise on the flop represents a lot of things and it is extremely weak to just surrender on the turn, isn't it?
Yes, I agree, if he had AJ, I was screwed from the beggining. But then again, ask yourself, why he is he just flatting my check raise if he has AJ? Doesn't he want to get it in on the flop? If you agree with my argument about AJ (you obviously don't have to), how much of his range does that jack really hit?10J, QJ, KJ etc don't necessarily call my CR on the flop do they? I mean it could, but its not certain.
Like I said before, I think I represent somethings on the flop with my checkraise they could make that turn pretty scary for him too. I think 77 is well within the range of what I was representing on the flop (as is AJ).
And seriously, my heart sank when that turn came, it was seriously one of the worst cards I have ever seen in my life because I was fairly certain he had AQ/AK and was going to give me his whole stack is the turn and river were blanks.
I'd like to hear your response Wizard and again I appreciate your input.
PS, again, my CR sizing sucks badly indeed.
