Waiting for the Turn

[Haupt_234]

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (10 handed)

No reads as of yet.

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif, K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls, <font color="666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="666666">4 folds</font>, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (6.33 SB) K/images/graemlins/club.gif, T/images/graemlins/club.gif, Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, Hero calls.

<font color="blue"> I decided to wait for the turn, and raise if a blank falls. I don't normally do this, but it seemed like the better play here. </font>

Turn: (4.66 BB) 7/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, Hero calls.

<font color="blue">It isn't a blank, but a pretty bad card. But I do have the outs to boat up.. should this be a raise since I have a decent chance of being ahead as well as 4 outs if I am not?
</font>
River: (7.66 BB) 9/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, Hero calls.

<font color="blue"> Crying call here??? </font>

Final Pot: 10.66 BB
<font color="green">Main Pot: 10.66 BB, between Hero, BB and UTG.</font>

Thanks in advance.

Rasie the turn, what makes you think BB only has a flushdraw? He could be betting with Kx, KT, QT, or anything else. Raise the turn and call it down if 3-bet.

Raise the flop, he might check the turn when you call, as that flop really cant have missed you.


Here is an example of waiting to raise when you have a vulnerable hand and you aren´t likely to knock anyone out on the flop since people seem to have a hard time with this concept.
