I think you are wrong Sir Fish, if he wants to gamble he can raise.....never call. Like Mago666 said if u call u lose, reraise and u got a chance he folds pre and if not....then you still got a chance to c-bet/check-raise him on flop. By only calling you need to hit to win and when you hit u dont have a clue what opponent has.

Yeah, and if he don't play like a donk with K/9, u lose all your stack. U can gamble, but not like a fish. Why reraise with a broadway ? If the guy is strong he calls your raise,and he will raise your C/bet or push on your reraise. And after you do what with those rags ? U fold, because of a bad flop, or you hit and u take all. Nice strategy...
Only calling here allows you to see the flop for "nothing". You get nothing => Check, if bet, fold. You get a draw => Bet, if raise call. You hit a str8, bet, if raise, reraise ...
I dont see a real reason to put 20 dols pre flop here, sry

it was ubnlucky for you. sometimes you play versus donk who couldn;t fold two pair on dengerous flop. raise it's better but in this hand you haven;t luck.
