Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
No reliable numbers as I'm just taking a shot. Qualitative reads: UTG+2 seems to be an overaggressive LAGtard, button is completely unknown

I'd imagine your beat, tough lay down though, not sure if I can make it.

Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
Even though the pot is huge, I don't think the third-nut backdoor flush draw is enough to call 2 more, esp. from a check/3bet. I suspect I'm drawing to 2 outs here at best.
I just wanted to make sure this was sound at such an aggressive level, thanks. |
Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
Looks like the right move to me

Call this down. Geez. When all the donkeys quit playing poker then you can fold this. And if they all quit playing poker, you may as well quit too.

Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
UTG+2 check-3-bets???
MP1 cold-calls 3 bets??? You need to improve. You're getting just over 13:1 to see the turn. Your backdoor flush draw may be bad even if you hit it. Your queens are clearly clean outs. 13:1 to take one stab at a two-outer? No thanks. Fold is good. |

He has ace high. And so is the guy who cold-calls that bet. He's trying to make a backdoor straight. And so is the button who capped preflop. He has 32o. Donk, donk, donk, GOOSE! Please stop posting crappy advice. |

"UTG+2 seems to be an overaggressive LAGtard, button is completely unknown"
Folding here is atrocious. 13 to 1 on a draw? You are assuming that he is the one drawing. Overagrressive could have AK, or almost any pocket pair. Button could have capped preflop as a positional play and could have anything as well since he is "unknown." Folding here is a mistake at any Party Poker table. You're the one posting crappy advice. |

Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
While it looks like a big pot, it's going to cost 3BB at a bare minimum to show down. That means he needs to have the best hand and not get outdrawn at least 20% of the time, and that's just not happening. Putting them both on hands you can beat and then calling down is what the fish do.

Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
I think it's a bit closer than people have made out, but still a fold. Assuming we're good if we hit our 2 outer, we have effective odds of 14:1 because button is almost sure to call. If button caps our odds are reduced to about 12:1 though, and to 13.5:1 if he folds. To make up for the odds shortfall you need to win about 8 BB on the turn and river. Given the action so far this isn't impossible, but you could be outdrawn often enough by Kings or Aces or a 5 who build a bigger hand. I'd say that, with the chance you're already nearly dead to quads, would make it a fold.

Allow me to join the fold support group.
Feel free to swear at Mr. lagtastic when he turned out to have by far the worst of it and the queen falls on the turn. By the way, what do y'all think utg+2 has? |

Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
Not just UTG. Button and MP also are staying around as far as we know and like their hands. There are 3 opponents here.

Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
If you fold an overpair of QQ on the flop in 20/40 just b/c it got capped preflop and check/3bet on flop of jack high ... you will get killed on 20/40 on PP. The logic you guys are using is that the other players are all rationale... give me a break. Folding this is throwing away $$$ ... Cap flop and lead turn..

Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
FWIW I put UTG+2 on JJ after the flop action.
MP1 had been doing a lot of limping so I didn't necessarily give him credit for much, though calling 3 bets cold on the flop indicated a dumb sandbagged 5 or a flush draw, minimum. They may be donks, but I'd say the overwhelming majority players even at the 10/20 games I play will instafold for 3 bets on the flop without a big hand or draw. I put button's capping range on AKs-AQs and AA-TT. I'm only ahead of AK-AQs, AKo and TT here, and splitting with the case QQ. If Button is playing AK(s/o) this way he's got at least one big spade, which negates any backdoor flush draw I have. Worst case scenario he has AA-KK, though I think after UTG+2's and MP1s action I'm drawing very thin regardless. I didn't post numbers because I didn't want them to make a difference as I only played a few orbits, but overall on the night UTG+2 turned out to be something like 29/19/4.5 over 50 hands (which of course is irrelevant). Although the pot is huge, at the time I felt that the chances of me having the best hand were much lower than 10% (and UTG+2 check/3bets after the cap with no less than AJ[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], which I'm barely ahead of in the first place), and the times I'm good on the flop, I probably only am best half the time at showdown against these opponents. I'll post results for those curious after I get back from class. |

all rational [/ QUOTE ] fyp ... if more than 1 of the other guys I know are LAGs I'm calling, that's fine. Folding the best hand is a huge mistake, sure. But I've also hung around on boards like this with a less-than-nut overpair and frequently come a poor third (eg to AA and JJ here), and needed to put in a further 4,5,6 BB to get a showdown. That's also a major leak situation. If you get a blank turn and it's raised to you, do you call 2 again? or reraise? In my experience in a normal (not hyper-aggressive) game people who raise and reraise into a large field of opponents can beat top pair. In my post I assumed that Hero needed to improve to win. I guess if you assume that Hero is ahead 20% of the time you can profitably raise yourself, for value. Your mileage may vary. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |
Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
I'm not folding just because it was check-3bet to me. I'm folding because I'm putting my opponents on a range of hands considering both preflop and flop action and deciding that most of the time I'm calling with the way worst of it and when I'm good here I'm not good very long.

Re: Laying Down an Overpair - Party 20
Not putting results in white, because based on the rest of the hand's action you should be able to tell what each player had.

Nice Read DeeJ, I thought the same thing when it came back to me on the flop: JJ and AA/KK for the Button. Guess MP1 was chasing the flush as well. I wonder if the fact that I posted hands suggested to people that I in fact was ahead and made a fold when I had the best of it - to the contrary, I was more curious how close the fold was. I still think it was close, but individual reads and previous hands might have influenced me to fold. |
