Eric Lindros up for review

[sublime]

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, Hero calls, CO folds, Button folds, SB completes, BB checks.

I feel I was weak here by calling, should I have raised? Mp1/Mp2 are typical players. Not good and not crazy.


Flop: (5 SB) 3/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 7/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(5 players) </font>
<font color="CC3333">SB bets</font>, BB folds, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls, MP1 calls.

Turn: (5.50 BB) 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(3 players) </font>
SB checks, MP1 checks, Hero checks.

River: (5.50 BB) J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(3 players) </font>
SB checks, MP1 checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: 5.50 BB
<font color="#990066">Main Pot: 5.50 BB, between MP1, Hero and SB.</font> &gt; <font color="white">Pot won by Hero (5.50 BB).</font>

Results in white below: <font color="white">
MP1 shows 7h Kh (one pair, sevens).
Hero shows 8s 8d (flush, jack high).
SB shows 3c 9h (one pair, threes).
Outcome: Hero wins 5.50 BB. </font>

I would probably raise pre-flop half the time, depending on the table.

I would have bet the turn. You are probably still best, and you need to charge them to see the river.

[Trix]

Calling preflop is fine. I would raise if most of the players behind are tight.

[Thomsen]

Bet the turn with overpair and inside straight draw plus flushdraw.

Checked to on the river you have to bet it. avoid showdown make them fold.

[ResidentParanoid]

Call pre-flop. Let everyone in behind you who will make mistakes calling all the way to the river when you catch a set.

Flop: good raise: protect your hand.

Turn: They checked to you, bet and see if you can win it now, since you are vulnerable to diamonds. It's Party 2-4, so if you get check-raised, you're probably in deep trouble.


In general, people at 2-4 play so poorly post-flop that you have to let them pay at least 1 bet per round when you are likely ahead.

Weak preflop? The turn check is pu$$y $hit.

Nice meeting you this weekend.

Did you fishnote SB by saying any two in SB and MP1 by saying any suited king?
