Check raise the flop. Pretty much trying to extract value. Betting gives everyone a chance to call behind which they did.
Check raise means you get an extra 3200 in the pot from both callers.
Or take the hand down early.
Second hand.
Same deal. Induce the bet from them so that they can reraise earlier. As played calling pre is ok. Check raise flop, lead turn.
This is where the saving and gaining bets come from. You can't play it passive like holdem, you want people to put extra money in.
First hand, i know i could have extracted more value, i dont think he was going anywhere so it is more likely my bad play saved me some chips.
The second hand, i didn't raise the flop as i wanted one of the players behind to follow. Because the player i was against was the short stack he wasn't going anywhere and knew all his chips were going in with any 2 cards.
