Gutshot odds
Same Party 2/4 game, 10 min's later. I am UTG+1 and pick up QJ. I've been tossing this from up front, but this table was boring, plus UTG limped. I limp. MP limps. Button limps. BB checks.
5 to the flop (5 SB) A K 9 two tone BB checks. UTG checks. I check. MP bets. Button calls. BB calls. UTG folds. Can I call here? |

Re: Gutshot odds
Yes, you can call here. The table seems fairly loose-passive with little raising (especially with AK showing). Plus with a good amount of callers, should you get the 10, QQ or JJ on the turn or the river, you'll be getting a decent payoff. And with the AK showing, should you land your straight, you'll probably find some people to call you until the end.

Re: Gutshot odds
Yoe *really* should have mucked preflop - then you wouldn't be in this predicament [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
You're getting 8 to 1 on an 11 to 1 shot. But you're also getting some implied odds if your card hits. Note that even if the T hits on the turn you run the risk having the J or Q come on the river - which would probably mean a split pot. I think it's a very close call and should probably be folded but may be playable for 1 card. The key is how much can you collect from the other players if you do hit? If you don't hit the T on the turn then you're in check/fold mode. |

Re: Gutshot odds
You can but its a loosing call. 4 clean outs your KJ outs are probably deas to any AX KX, You are getting 8:1 on your call. Your implied odds are a little better as you will make up bets on the turn/river if you hit (assuming that no flush hits and the board doesnt pair) You need about 10:1 to call. Is your QJ suited?, Do you have one of the suit that is two to a flush. These might help your odds a little, but for the most part, there is no way you can call here...

Re: Gutshot odds
Assuming theres no flush draw on the board, you getting 8:1 to call a 12:1 bet. If you hit it on the turn you got 2 streets w/double bets to make up 4 sbs. This is a fine call b/c theres a very small chance of a redraw.
If theres a flush draw on the board, then its a different story. I'd consider folding here b/c you may only be drawing to 3 outs and theres a chance of a redraw. |

Re: Gutshot odds
The call is slightly -EV. It's worth considering anyway because you are closing the flop action and are in a perfect check-raising spot if you make your straight on the turn.
Generally, you should save these calls for times when you have other outs such as when you have a backdoor flush draw with QJs. Or, if you've got an overcard with something like A4 on a board of T,5,2. Or, even better with two overcards when you've got QJ on a board of 9,8,4. If calling with QJo after one limper is symbollic of one of your loose calls, you're pre-flop play is probably reasonable as far as tightness/looseness goes. |

Re: sults
Well, I did call. I also caught my 10 on the turn. Dynasty recommended CR'ing if I caught. I bet out. LP called. BB raised. I 3 bet. LP called 2 cold. BB called. River was a brick. I bet. Call. Call. Should I have CR'd?

Re: Gutshot odds
id call. but with reservations. dynasty mentions that you are closing the action which really helps. the 2 tone board you have to be wary of. especially if you hit your hand of the flush suit. then it can get a little dicey.
one reason you c/r the turn, is so the MP hopefully will bet, get some players in, and then you jack it. there are your implied odds going at 2sbs for each BB put in. if 3 opponents put in 2 BBs on the turn, that's 12 sbs. i dont like the set of 9s play though. he had an easy flop raise. b |

Re: sults
Think cahomeseller learned the hard way why to raise the flop with a set and a draw heavy board?

Re: Gutshot odds
Gosh, I guess I am in the minority here but with
1) the two tone board and 2) the pot odds not the best (I know implies = ok) 3) outside chance at a split 4) Pretty small pot I'd fold...Is the too tight? JW |
