if you aren't willing to bet out at that flop then you shouldn't raise preflop. flopping 2 pair is about the best you're hoping with kq (strong, but not that strong considering you said "i raised and got a few callers" i'm assuming you were somewhat early position). early position you have to be able to lay down kq. early position, it's not a bad thing to be able to lay down aq. anyway, point is, flopping 2 pair you can't assume someone called your preflop raise with the j10. you have to bet and at least find out, playing as passively as that will cost you much money in the long run, because if someone bets you don't know if it's a steal or a great hand or a random ace. if you bet and get raised at least you have an idea of what's going on. |
