Fold or raise pf. Did you have any read on MP3?

Honestly, that stuck out to me as well, and I can't remember specifically why I cold-called pre-flop, but there was probably a thin reason. I should have 3-bet unless he was very passive pf.

I would have played it the same (postflop). Preflop decision for me would be based on their pfr %.
Gotta love that table, 4 players called 2 cold on the flop.

Did he hit his 2-outer set on the river? Or was it a straight?
Either that or he's an idiot.

[fairness]

i don't like the call preflop. book says to call if suited, fold if not. everything else looks good though. don't know how that 7 helps mp1, probably made 2 pair on the river in which case you're good. if he's a tool and caught the bottom end of a straight w/ 56 or a he caught a set that sucks, looks like AK for mp3 for him to be hanging around till the end.

[mmbt0ne]

Pre-flop, I'd usually say raise or fold too.

That action from the flop on is pretty odd. A different player betting into you each time, you raise, and they all call. I probably play it the exact same way. Nobody seems to have a set and I can't give them credit for a straight. You have top 2 pair, so I'd assume you're good here more often than not.

Still, I can't think of any read that would make me *just* call.

[meep_42]

My thinking on this hand:

Pre-flop: As discussed, not sure why I cold called, raising or folding are clearly better.
Flop: Use the PF raiser to protect my TPTK on a somewhat coordianted board.
Turn: Flop play only forcing one out, but I improve, so I raise again here thinking that BB caught his A or made a lower 2-pair.
River: The 7 doesn't change much, in my mind, as I don't think any hand in 'til the river would have improved past my top 2-pair, so I raise again.

Results:
<font color="white">MP1 shows T6s, BB shows 99, my hand is really no good. </font>

Understood, it was clearly a mistake.

[zephed56]

The BB really lost the hand for himself there. He should have raised the flop, I think T6s could have folded.

[fairness]

life goes on man

I think T6s would have folded.

EDIT: eh, maybe not, if he's a fish I think he would have called trying to hit his gutshot.

[/ QUOTE ]

Look a little closer at the hand. MP1 should've jammed that flop.

[RyGreen18]

you would think the BB would check-raise the turn with trips, poorly played...

[zephed56]

yeah, it took me awhile to notice my mistake.

T6s has a double gutshot on the flop, and I believe is correct to call all the way.

edit: That's clearly been stated and I should really read all the replies before posting! /images/graemlins/blush.gif

Do you think calling with T6 is better than raising? A J may chop it or even lose it for you but there's an awful lot of people hanging around.

[afk]

Oh, sorry for the confusion.

If I had been in the hand I would have been more aggressive with my T6s, I was trying to point out that his calls were correct when he made them (based solely on pot odds, really) - Though I would have probably bet out and been more aggressive in general.

[davelin]

Thank both of them for not costing you more money.

[meep_42]

Oh, I do. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I was more interested in my play in this big pot, though. :P
