How is my line?

I would 3-bet the flop and go from there. If you get raised on the turn by MP or CO then you can probably let it go.

my first thought too.

What do you put MP on? he's a bit passive dont you think?

[kelvin474]

spydog, can we checkfold the turn UI if MP caps the flop?

[kelvin474]

Yeah I think he has 99/JJ/QQ most of the time based on the preflop and flop action. I vote for JJ or 99 by the river.

Why did you choose to stop and go? I prefer either calling down or calling and waiting to the river to re-take the lead or 3 betting the flop and leading until challenged or check raising the turn.

I don't like calling down or the calldown/river lead because your position is first and the CO is willing to gamble.

Check raising the turn is okay. 3 betting the flop is probably best due to the CO.

Well, he didn't cap preflop so I doubt he is on KK/AA. I'd be really surprised by a flop cap here. I think check-folding is probably correct, though.

I think you can rule out JJ or QQ based on the preflop action.

I also 3bet the flop. The only time I like the SNG is if I'm specifically trying to prevent a free card, usually against flush draws. Here I think you're ahead way too often, so either 3bet the flop or c/r the turn. I prefer 3betting the flop because a lot of times I'll freeze up and just call down if an over hits on the turn, and there are too many overs to your pair possible here.

I was frightened by MP's raise on the flop. I'm always careful when passives wake up, obviously. He could quite possibly hold a 7. Since I only called the flop raise, I donked the turn for information when the Q fell. Since they both just called I was pretty sure I was ahead, with a very small (pre flop action) possibility of one of them holding JJ.

Honestly, I'd venture just a call PF here. Being OOP in a four way raised pot generally sucks balls. I kinda like the stop n go more then straight up three betting it. We may be able to get him to incorrectly fold JJ here, and I highly doubt that QQ is around given the PF action.

HIs raise protects your hand for you. Three betting the flop also has its merits too, as I can see you being ahead here a good amount. Just because he raises only 8% of his hands, doesn't mean that he won't do weird ass [censored] when he does raise(meaning, I could see him turning up A8s)

MP had 99.

[kelvin474]

I think a 7 PFR quite possibly wouldn't cap JJ or QQ there.
