7 thoughts on “Poker Strategy: How to Play Top Pair In A Limped Pot”

  1. Bart, at 1-2 NL raises on such flops are mostly awkward 2 pairs as this villain had. They don't have sets that often bcs they try to slowplay and it's nearly never a draw because most of the 1-2 players do not raise draws. In my experience.

  3. Bart what about Hero leading for $25 into $70 on river? Get thin value from villain's weaker pair holdings, or even a possible inducing of a bluff-shove from his missed draws?

  4. I got this situation on table
    I had 8♥️K♠️
    opponent K♠️10♠️ ,
    table K♥️4♥️Q♠️8♦Q♥️
    and he won as " 2 pairs " .

  5. Biggest Mistake of this entire hand? You did not bet PF with KQO! PUNISH the limpers, and you wont run into this situation often….I would have made it $18-$20PF, and evaluate if anyone 3-Bets me PF.,

  6. I dont think, Hero did anything wrong here. The guy was steaming and only started the hand with a half stack, so he could have a wide range. Its just part of the equation, that even when someone have a wide range, sometimes they will also show up with the top side of it.

  7. I would have folded to the 30 unless it is a really bad player who raised. Any regular is going to have A K, though he probably would have shoved pre flop, so I am guessing he has 10 10 , 4 4 or K 10, he clearly is not worried about he K too much I am only at the flop so excited to see what happened.
