97s draw in unraised pot
Would appreciate some feedback on this hand please...
The villain is fairly tight pre-flop and have not seen him play many post-flop hands. NL $1/$2 Blinds $200 Max Buy-In Full Ring 10-Handed UTG folds. UTG+1 calls. UTG+2 calls. MP1 folds. I hold 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in MP2 and call. Everyone folds to SB (Villain) who completes. BB checks. Flop : K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Pot = $10 Villain bets $6. Everyone folds to me leaving the pot Heads-Up. I have a flush draw and OESD though I considered the straight draw as being a gutshot to the 8 in case the villain held an Ace. My image was tight at the time so I tried to win the pot there with a semi-bluff raise to $18. The villain re-raised me making it $30 to go. At this point I felt that the villains most likely holding was 2-pair (KJ, KT or JT). I didn't think he would fold to any more aggressive action and the pot was laying me just under 5-to-1 so I called. Turn : 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Pot = $67 Villain leads out for $25. With better than 3-to-1 odds I call. River : 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Pot = $117 Villain leads out for $50. I fold. Any comments on how I could have played this differently? All comments are greatly appreciated. |

Re: 97s draw in unraised pot
raise the flop:
- he may lay down the better hand - he may check to you on the turn, allowing you to take a free card - it disguises your hand so that if you hit on the turn, you're more likely to get action |

He did. [/ QUOTE ] heh, oops. anyone else tend to gloss over large blocks of text with no white space? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] i'd probably push to his reraise on the flop...you have a very strong draw even with just the flush and gutshot, and discounting the Q outs. calling is fine since he pretty much prices you in at each point. |
