Sorry, I can't get the converter to work, so I'm doing this manually. Here's the hand:
Ultimate Bet $33 NLHE
Hero: 1555
SB: 5425
BB: 6445
other stacks: between 3600 and 11,000 (chip leader)
blinds at 100/200
Hero is UTG with 6 /images/graemlins/spade.gif6 /images/graemlins/club.gif and M of 5.
Hero calls, folded around to SB who completes and BB who checks it.
Flop (pot = 600) = 10 /images/graemlins/club.gif10 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif9 /images/graemlins/club.gif
SB bets 600, BB folds, Hero, (with 1355 behind facing a pot of 1200)?
My reads: The SB just got to the table a couple of hands ago, so I don't really have a read on him. The BB seems to be a very solid and patient player. I have been pushing my chips around and just took a BB vs a short stack when I PFRed (3.5 x BB) from MP with 7s and he called with K/5s for all his chips and hit a K. But the SB probably doesn't know much about me.
I know many of you will say I should have pushed PF, but I really don't like pushing into a full table with 6s. I figured that if the SB had a 10, he would have checked and tried to trap me, and I didn't see a 9 making a pot-sized bet here. I thought I might be up against overcards and a flush draw.
Does anyone fold this here?
