Small FD from SB
 

I played this at prima and haven't found a converter.

I dealt Jc 5c in the SB

EP3, MP3 and Button limps, I limp and BB comes along

Flop comes 8c Ac 8d (5 SB)

EP3 checks, MP3 bets, Button folds I call and BB folds.

Turn Ah (3,5 BB)

MP3 bets, I fold.

My thinking here is that I have to discounts my outs since MP3 very well could have connected to the flop, which now would mean that he has a full house. The pot is small, and even if MP3 missed the flop I'm still very likely behind with my J high. Actually I think a call would be marginal even if the board wasn't paired?

Stats on MP3 33/16/1,6 over only 36 hands.

At first, I wanted to say bet the flop for value. The fact that the A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] is on the flop means wonderful things for you; limping small suited Aces is standard while suited Kings much less so. However it's only for value if three people call, and it's hard to say if you'll get that. Given that your flush isn't to the nuts, I suppose a c/c is fine.

Turn: ugh, well that sucks. Well he liked the flop and the turn, and the only reason I could see him liking it now gives him a boat. The pot sucks too; yeah we can let this go.

Yup I think you are right there, small pot, any A or any 8 beats you even if you hit your draw. Good fold

Was EP3's post-flop-bet play censored by Homeland Security?

Sucky board + small pot + heads-up(?) with someone who liked the flop = easy fold.

Good fold, I think we are drawing dead here tons of times and the pot just isn't big enough.
