Default Re: CONTINUING ON.............5th..



Now I'd fold. The reraise by low board means trip 6s or less likely 9s. If he's agood player, he would not do it with 2 small pairs or even a 9 high straight because both of his opponents have scary boards wih both flush and high straight possibilities. So I believe you must improve to win. Right now you're getting 3.75 to 1 pot odds, but your implied odds are much worse as more raises here or on the next street are a certainty. You're not getting sufficient pot odds to persue a 1 in 6 chance of making a full house by the river, plus a 1 in 9 chance of backdoor flush, which so far is inferior to flush possibility of the 3rd player, with good risk of giving you the 2nd best hand. You also have backdoor straight possibilities, but a lot of cards you would need seem to be dead.
