If I keep betting, I am ready to die with one pair, if I check , I risk giving a crucial free card. Just had 2 orbits at the table, both players seem average, no special reads. I haven't been involved in pots so far, so my image is probably more tight. |

Hmmmm what to do what to do.

Re: JJ overpair OOP - 2 callers on Flop
Button's overcall looks pretty scary. I want to check here, but then again I'm a big wuss.

Re: JJ overpair OOP - 2 callers on Flop
I think this is a very tough situation. Id slow way down, as you got two callers on a fairly drawless board. One of em prob has a set. Check and see what they do, if either bets more than half pot, im guessing they are milking you with a set. You shouldnt worry about the free cards too much. If one of them is playing a five that's poker. Betting again here commits way too much of your stack in a dangerous spot. I hate spots like these btw.

Re: JJ overpair OOP - 2 callers on Flop
I'd probably fire half pot...I think thats enough of a slowdown. I'm probably folding to agression. If that gets called i'm firing around 1/3 pot as a blocker.

Re: JJ overpair OOP - 2 callers on Flop
Half pot is $55 not $65. Assuming you lose one caller here, pot would be 220. Then you can fire around 50 again.

Check/push. Check/fold. Push. Decide what is best and do it. |
Re: JJ overpair OOP - 2 callers on Flop
$100 and call a push.

$100 and call a push. [/ QUOTE ] I actually dont mind open push, you'd be amazed at how often A4/55+ call... Also, hands like 45 which may be correct in calling psb may call anyway through frustration/believing they have best hand. If stacks are deeper I like check/pushing... If villains will only bet if they can beat JJ, I like check/folding. |
Re: JJ overpair OOP - 2 callers on Flop
I often see 45 pushing when you bet 100 if they are planning on calling. Not sure why.

Thanks for the replies.
Probably I butchered this one. I checked, planning to fold to something like bet/raise or strong bet/call and pushing any weak bet.

Re: RESULTS
Ugh. Protect your hand, man. No reason to think you're beat just from 2 calls on this very draw heavy flop. Much more likely to be against two draws. Or a draw and a worse pair. I'm definitely blasting away on the turn. Too short to get away if you're beat.
|
Re: RESULTS
I dont think the flop is draw heave. its 234. Only real draw is someone with a 5 in their hand. Doesnt the PSB on the flop protect that enough?
|
Re: RESULTS
Anyone with an ace has at least 7 outs and quite possibly 10. And on the turn, they could pick up a diamond draw.

Re: JJ overpair OOP - 2 callers on Flop
I think with this level of players your best bet would be to make a probe bet of about half the pot. It's a form of small ball. I don't see how anyone can really raise you in this spot unless they have you beaten or are ultra aggessive. A bet of that size doesn't really pot commit you and it helps define your hand and the hands you are against.

But note that while the actual holdings are about the best what I could hope for if we bring the money in now, I am still just a bit more than 40% to win the pot. Add the scenarios, where I am toast and I don't think there is much room to blunder big, whatever I do here. |
