Firstly, thanks very much to Greg (Fossilman), the Son of Mogh guy and everyone else that offers such great advice and analysis on this forum. You make the game more enjoyable for a huge number of us.
So, I slipped away from the office this morning to play the $30 buy-in (T1000) and $40 re-buy (T1500) NL hold'em at Lucky Chances. First hand of the day, I'm SB. SB & BB are T25.
I'm dealt 6 /images/graemlins/heart.gif 3 /images/graemlins/heart.gif. 3 callers to me. I check. BB checks. T100 in the pot going to the flop.
Flop comes A /images/graemlins/heart.gif 8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif3 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
Out of my remaining T975, I bet T300. BB folds, Unknown early limper goes all-in with his remaining T975 (I'm just happy it was the first hand so I don't have to confess to not knowing exactly who had what in their stacks), folded to me. Sort of based on a Cris Brown thread I was reading yesterday, where she had a flush draw and believed her A outs were good, I call (thinking I have 11 outs). Comments? Poor initial bet on this flop? Is a baby flush draw too small to call an all-in here? Does the pair tip the balance?
Results below.
Cheers, Benn.
He had A,3 for two pair and the flush never came. /images/graemlins/frown.gif
