Somewhat loose passive 10-20 game.
Preflop: Loose Player (LP) limped in early position, folded to player to my right (PTMR) who raised. PTMR is a poor, loose aggressive player who was short-stacked. She had about 3 SBs left. I had Kd Jd in the cutoff seat and coldcalled. The button called as did the blinds, and we saw the flop 6-handed.
My thinking was that PTMR didn't need a premium hand to raise here, and was possibly just trying to get all-in. Also, big suited connectors usually do well in big multi-way pots, but I normally prefer something a little stronger that Kd Jd to coldcall a raise. Anyway, was my coldcall okay given the situation or a mistake?
Flop: 3s 3d 4d
Checked to PTMR who bet. I raised, and all folded to PTMR who re-raised all-in. I called.
My thinking was that since the pot was pretty big, it was worth raising to improve the chances of winning if I hit one of my overcards. However, my raise also kind of killed my implied odds for the flush, and in retrospect I'm not sure if it was correct. Any thoughts?
Any input appreciated, and I'll post the results below.
Thanks,
Caddy
