When you do not want overcalls

[SlantNGo]

Thanks guys... I could get away with this type of mistake at full ring (not betting the flop) but I think it will kill me at 6-max. I'll definitely look out for more situations like these.

So, results, SB folds, BB folds, I win w/o SD. A little results oriented thinking probably got to me [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

If there was more in the pot it might be worth trying, especially if the third guy has called previously. It's true that you don't want overcalls, but I want it to be more likely that I'm ahead of Villain before I make this play -- maybe he's played his hand like a draw all the way and it the river bricks, maybe a scary card falls and he likes to bet scaries, maybe Villain routinely bluff-donks. We have to think value bet potential + increased equity = at least 1 BB. That's asking a lot on this board with 4 BB in the pot.

It's good to think about this stuff though.

Happy pokering.
