Default Re: A similar hand that I don\'t like - family pot, though

Meh... I guess that's a call. I don't think I'd like doing it, though.

Exactly. That's why your post was serendipitous. Against this table with a pot this big, I don't think it's a big mistake to call but it sure feels dirty when you get 3-bet.

It ties to your post in two ways:

1) Limpers. In a family pot like this, you're getting correct odds to play. In fact, in a raised pot there's an argument to stick with suited small-gap hands preflop with 3 or more opponents.

2) I thought it interesting that someone suggested that you lead your second pair OOP with an uncoordinated rainbow flop because your pair is often good against 1 limper where I think it's clearly wrong to do so in my hand because I'm almost certainly behind. High card strength is more important with fewer opponents. Clean outs and drawing power are more important multiway (high card strength still good <grin&gt.
