Let me get this right. Second pair no kicker, no draw and a call to a raise no less on the flop?? I would fold the flop. But maybe if you have a read sometimes you could raise as a bluff. But I think this is a clear fold.

Are you bluffing at a dry sidepot?

No way. What do you think villain is raising with right after the guy betted all-in?

A ten, a flush draw, overcards...I dunno. I don't see the purpose in raising though.

Just give me your thought process and I'll walk through it.

MP1's range of hands that he'll raise with in this spot is wide IMO. Lets say he'll raise with overcards, a flushdraw, or a T. With the T pairing on the turn it makes it less likely that he has one and I can raise and showdown cheaply in a relatively large pot. If he 3-bets I'm outta there.

Ok I see what you're saying now. The problem I see with this though, is even though you might have an equity advantage over villian you still have the all in player to worry about, which is eating up a lot of said advantage. I don't know whether it is enough to turn it into a call or a fold - or a flop fold even. I think I''ll just either call down in this spot or fold. Bleh, strange situation - thats why I hate posting in the CO /images/graemlins/smile.gif

UTG had very little money left. Don't you think he would stack off with any two arndom cards?

Even a random hand has 26% pot equity heads up against you.


Board: Ts 7c 2c Th
Dead:

equity (%) win (%) / tie (%)

Hand 1: 26.3417 % [ 00.24 00.02 ] { random }
Hand 2: 73.6583 % [ 00.72 00.02 ] { 7h4h }
