Default Re: Raise 40 to Lose 80...Love Those Fish!!!

If 2 pair is unlikely with this board isn't a straight unlikely as well? I disagree since everyone limped but I can see your point.

So the reluctance to raise, with this rationale, is that you fear a set. I don't think you will run into a set enough to stop a raise here. What if your opponent semi-bluffed the turn with an Ace and another diamond? And it was described as a loose game.

I can't see not raising here unless your opponent is fairly predictable. I don't know of many good players who automatically check 2 pair because an offsuit ace rivers.

The 55% doesnt apply unless you have a tell on the BB
(overcaller)indicating he's going to fold.

Im still not sure not raising is the right play,
but I know that if I was the button and
I had 2 overcallers behind me, I would
just call for sure in this exact situation.
