How do I stop paying people off? - Page 2 - Beginning Poker Questions

I don’t know how this will be taken, but I think you took a weak line. You set yourself up for the tough position. I would raise flop or turn. He took a very strong line. Raise pre and triple barrel. That’s an easy fold the way it went. I would have raised flop or turn for more information.

Also, how confident. He has to be bluffing and you have to be right more than 50% of the time for this to be profitable.

We don't have to be right 50% of the time to call ...
Better look into pot odds again.

I don't mind the weak line .. the issue is that you are now overvaluing your hand by thinking/knowing that you under-repped your hand on Flop and Turn. (Which is the same as putting yourself in a tough spot .. or did you?)

You still have to range your exact holding against the 'action'. As I play more PLO my perception of AA post-Flop in NL has been well diminished as 'just a pair' and thus while being the best pair, it's still only 'one' pair.

I'm sure there's a stat out there somewhere that shows what percentage of NL hands are won with 'one' pair or less. GL
