.50/1 BB defense

[antneye]

Standard or reckless?

I ddn't really have a read on Villain, but put him on a couple of high cards. With 2 to a flush and strt draw on board I figured there was a good shot I could steal the pot if a heart fell, plus I had overcards.

Can a mod assist me with HH....not sure why its not showing correctly.

If you're going to defend with this then your line seems fine, I wouldn't make a habit of this but as long as you don't get stupid with your attempt it looks well played. You took a shot and it worked. What you have done if he raises the turn? Some people get married to their bluff and think that they will win the hand if they just keep raising. Be sure you can let it go if you meet resistance.

neildewhurst seems to work for me. i just pasted the HH in the frame, selected "Bet The Pot" as output format (did you do this?), and put antneye in the "your alias" field (you can put "hero" or whatever).

If I'm going to try and steal this, I check Raise this Flop. I like to scare the hell out of them early to see what they really think of their cards. CR'ing a flop on a resteal is a pretty common move for me. I also CR with a made hand too, just to keep them on their toes.
