the under fullboat
 

I was in a hand recently at a local cardroom in ca.5-5 no limit 500 max buy-in 3 players in hand, button($1,500),me first pos(sb)($1,200) and utg($1,100)
utg limps-everyone folds to button who makes it 35,I call (44)def borderline but running good and could double through with set. utg calls
flop j4j
i check, utg checks,button bets 150
i smooth call, utg makes it 400, button folds, i move all in, button calls fast, final board j4jk7 me(44) utg (j7)
Obviously i lose almost my whole stack.utg was a gambler for sure but any thoughts on my play of this?? thx [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

What's borderline about that? 35 represents 3% of UTG's stack. Sure, being OOP sucks, but that's an easy PF call.

Also, your post as others have said is just a bad beat post, but I would lead out on the flop. Nevermind results, with these stacks, doesn't leading out make more sense?

Seriously, what were you thinking? Moving all in getting almost 2-1 on your money when you're 77% to win the hand? UTG made a bad call for sure, calling the all-in with a ragged J, but he outdrew you. You got your money in when you were a big favorite and there's nothing else you can do. You'll win this the majority of the time, so keep doing it.

Re: the under fullboat
 

if you dont want to get outdrawn offer to tell the UTG gambler with J7 that you have a full house and will show if he folds his jack lol.

My thoughts? Get more money real fast, 'cause you're not going to leave that table until it breaks.

Nice job getting the demented idiot to go all-in with top pair seven kicker. If you can keep doing that you have a long, lucrative career ahead of you. Not all morons are quite so obliging.
