Too stubbron?

Here is a hand I played just a few minutes ago.

I have 5 6 of diamonds in middle position and yes I call. Blinds are 125/250

3 players.

Flop is Ace, 5, 5

I bet 500... one caller

Turn yes it is the ace.. pretty sure he hits but yeah I can't let it go.

he makes a really small bet.. he bets the minimum which I think is sorta weird I wanted to raise him there but didn't just call.

River didn't matter... he again bets the 250-300 and again I want to raise him so bad.. why would he be betting so small? Just hoping that I do fall for it and raise him? Anyways I couldn't throw it anyway I call his bet and see his ace 7 off.

la sigh.I lose and curse myself for not letting go.

  • Value bet.

    He wants to bet low enough for you to call, but not too high as for you to fold. If he bets 1000 up front and you fold, he doesnt win the 500-600 that you called.
  • Still seems pretty small
  • stack sizes are important here....

    ^ this for sure... It is meaningless without knowing.
  • Nothing wrong with playing suite connectors but I would raise preflop if you are going to play them. A-7os may have folded pre-flop.

    As mentioned, stack sizes are important- especially at the 125/250 level. If you have less than 20 BB, this is just spewy - more than 40 BBs, raise pre flop or fold.
