tiny pot turn problem 20-40

[mike l.]

i have K5s in the sb 5 handed 20-40. bb is a foolish weak losing player, button is only a little bit better. button flat calls, i call $10 more, bb checks.

the flop is J76 rainbow none of my suit. checked around.

the turn is 8 rainbow. i check, bb bets, button calls, what's my play and why?

i fold. you dont really have an openender. it's a gushot. though it looks like an openender. you could hit your hand and end up on the low end of the str8

I would fold. You have one card to come. With an over card but how good can that be if it hits with the kicker you have? I agree with bernie as well. These are the type of hands you lose money on.

ok glad i folded then. it's a call i make sometimes when im playing crappy though. even if i have the complete 11 outs though im not even getting the right pot odds and implied odds are very iffy against two players. definitely a losing play.

[Ed S.]

Yeah its a good thing you did. Because its a bad habbit to get into if you call down like that and chase. We have all done one time or another.
