Is this an easy flop cap situation?

Kevin · #1 10-07-2004, 12:48 AM

I really struggle with with when to ram and jam big draws and when to back off. Since this is such a big multi-way pot, it seems like it would be exhibit A for when to cap.

I just wanted to make sure.

Cap the turn too if the board doesn't pair.

Not that the results matter... but I think it was the biggest pot that I have won (in terms of bbs - net +29bbs). I just wanted to make sure if 4th and 5th were brick, brick, it was still the right thing to do. Since M2 coldcalled 78o and flopped the ass end straight, I was 41% to win. He was pretty upset with me after the hand for capping the flop "when I didn't even have a pair".

This post is boring. Please don't waste our time.

I would cap this flop heads up every time for value, maybe even against .8 of a person. So if happen to get a multi pot such as this click the raise raise and reraise button as fast as you can.
