Ok so I don't have the hand history at work, but this hand has really been irking me a bit.
No real reads on the important villain in the hand, I must confess I had not been paying much attention to this table recently as I had been running pretty cold and was focusing on another table with a donater on it who was going all-in preflop every other hand. Here's the action:
This is on a $100NL (6Max) table Party. I picku up 10 /images/graemlins/heart.gif 9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif in CO-1. Folded to me, I make it 3. CO Calls, Button Folds, SB Folds, BB Calls.
CO has ~$40
BB has ~$130
I have them both covered with ~$250
Flop comes 10 /images/graemlins/club.gif 8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif 4 /images/graemlins/heart.gif
BB Bets $6 I raise to $15 (Comments??) CO Calls $15 BB goes all-in for ~$120 more, Hero...?
Ok so I could be up against a set, a higher flush draw, perhaps two pair or even an over pair. I'm willing to discount an overpair because I feel that BB probably would've reraised preflop. I'm leaning heavily towards overs with a flush draw simply because going all-in in this spot seems like a play to isolate the short stack. I know most 2+2ers will likely advocate a fold in this spot, although the most interesting question I feel is, what percentage of the time will the BB be making an isolation play here with overs and a flush draw or with something like 108o?
Results to come...
