well no point in overcalling on the river for sure

I think given the massive potsize, and drawhappy board I'm calling the 3bet and raising the turn as the defualt

a pretty bad card came off, so I'm not sure its still a raise

tough hand. You capped the flop so lead the turn, If SB raises i call down, if anyone else raises id have to think seriously about dumping this hand unless its only 1 bet back to you, then just call down.

nasty board for you.

u have to call the river for 1 bet

I think you played this well except for the turn, the check on the turn left you with no idea where you stood.

You advocate overcalling on a 4 flush, 4 straight, paired board? HU I might call, I might even allow someone to call just for sanity's sake closing the action, but there are way, way too many ways to lose this hand, especially with people to act behind you who might raise.

I call the flop 3bet with plans to raise the turn. Scary card came... I check fold the turn... too passive? I just dont think there is any chance my hand is good.

I agree your chances of winning this hand arent good, but they dont need to be. I dont think i can fold a 31BB pot for 1 bet with no overcards on the board.

If im correct 4% of the time i profit.

I wonder if Ed Miller would fold this river.

Fold the river, there is absolutely no way you have the best hand. I'd bet the turn and call if MP3 reraises, but there's just no way you have the best hand with so many people in the pot.

If just one or two opponents saw this river I'd call... but not here.

there's a big difference between calling against 1opponent, and calling after someone has called, and 1left to act ..

HU i call
in this situation you will win 0-1% of the time

Ed would probably bet fold or check fold the turn. You aren't good on the turn here and you have nothing ot draw too. If you somehow get to the river you have a fold as well. Even though you are getting a gazillion to one it doesn't matter since you are never good here. The river overall is burning money.

yes i agree the turn was poor as i stated.

Man ive seen some strange crap in micro limits- but im still learning so if a fold is best on the river then im cool with that /images/graemlins/cool.gif
