Hero wins $5.22. </font> immediately after this hand, i wondered if i had played it optimally. if you've peaked at the results, you'll notice that i had 1 out left in the entire deck. i tend to limp in with my medium pockets, in hopes of hitting a set... but this is one of the times that it definitely didn't work out for me. i supposed that i should've had an inkling i was beat after my flop raise was all-inned by two players, but at this level i can often expect to see them flip over TPTK, two pair, pair+straight draw, or the flush draw. i know that my confidence seems overly high here, but i really was faltering at the moment on what i should do. i figured that, more often than not, i'd have the best hand on the flop.. and if not, i still had a few outs to a boat (although not in this case). UTG+1 just sat down recently, and hadn't gotten a read on him - SB was tight aggressive and felt he might have had the straight, but again seemed tough to lay down at the moment (hindsight is always 20/20). mistake, or just a tough break? let me know what you all think, it'd be much appreciated. |

Re: flopped set, misplayed?
sb raises after a raise and a reraise... he has a made hand. UTG guy is small stacked... so he might go in on a draw hoping to triple up, or have a made hand.
You also have a made hand and are playing in crazyland so have no idea where you are. You could be way ahead or way behind these clowns. I'd say you are ahead... or behind with live outs often enough here that your play was goot. If you are going to get your chips in on this pot... you better do it on the flop. I think the poker gods handed you a rifle and sent you hunting... only to give the deer bazookas so that they (poker gods) could laugh at you. I'd say at a higher limit this could be an interesting hand... but here... we've all seen these guys make these moves with much much less. |

Re: flopped set, misplayed?
you played it fine. there's no way you're getting away from this hand with the relatively shallow stacks.

Go to the felt 100% of the time on a party stack and flopped set. If you start second guessing yourself, you are making a huge -EV long term mistake.

Re: flopped set, misplayed?
I'd agree with the previous posters -- you made exactly the hand you were looking for on the flop, albeit with two overcards on the board. This is the time to ram & jam, esp. in a Party NL$25 game. People in these games will move in with 2 pair, nut flush draws, and even TPTK sometimes. You hit two better hands, but in the long run your play looks to be +EV.

Re: flopped set, misplayed?
I lay it down after they come over the top. The board is too coordinated and there is a very good chance that if you are not already behind that they will catch you by the river.
I guess I am the weak tight contrarian here but if small blind is not afraid of two raises after his initial bet chances are he's got a pretty damn good hand. |

Re: flopped set, misplayed?
The fact is that with their stacks that small, it will be almost impossible for you to knock them off any draw. So you suck it up and bet hard in order to give them the worst odds that you can. Folding on the flop in this circumstance would be absolute lunacy. Don't let short term results affect what was a good decision at the time you made it.

"I lay it down after they come over the top. The board is too coordinated and there is a very good chance that if you are not already behind that they will catch you by the river. "
this would be the worst laydown ever. if somebody flopped the str8, then by the time he comes over the top you have the odds to call and catch a boat. very rarely will you be against an overset as well. |
