You could easily have just checked, saw my hand and mucked. You get no additional information. Or if you want, bet there! Just brutal! But I'll take the Free Money

You played that pretty badly.

1. Never sit with $2 when the table max is 10. Countless threads should sufficiently drill that into everyone's head.
2. If you're raising that hand, raise more. After 1 limper, you would want to raise to about $.50. At least $.40.
3. Bet the flop. What are you trying to do here?
4. Bet more on the turn. What do you hope to accomplish with a min-bet?
5. Some people just fold rather than having to show the embarassing hands that they are playing. Pretty stupid, huh?

I can't argue any of your statements, not a one!

1. But my bankroll consists of $2 only.... yep thats right! So thats ALL I can play with right now.... sadly. No money to deposit right now and I wanted a game.

2. This is a Limp Festival at my table, figured this is the best way to make money.

3. I checked to set a trap, but yes betting the flop would have been better.

4. Can't argue

5. Thats the original input!

Thanks for the suggestions. I appreciate it!

[johnp158]

No prob. Good luck with that bankroll.

[Spuddy]

LOL! I wouldn't call it a bankroll its more of a temporary tryout before I deposit my $100! lol

But thanks again!
