Betting with Two Pair

Postby briachek » Wed Oct 12, 2005 11:24 am

Here are a few hands that worked well when I flopped 2 pair, particularly top two. I've always hated playing them in the past and often just check folded unless folded to me in LP. What do you guys think? For the most part, I fold to raises here, especially on the river. The river is my biggest question. Do you often check call or value bet like I do knowing they would need a pretty big hand to raise you? Normally I bet 1/2 on river which is what I do often when I have a strong made hand too so this can look the same if I have a set or better too.

Hand 1
