Re: QTd in BB
 

I'd cap it. Nobody gets credit for a better flush yet, especially since the turn also completes an OESD.

call and check call the river.

there aren't any flush hands that button can have here that we beat. he most likely wouldn't limp J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9:diamond or worse being 15% vpip, and you have the Q and T. the possible flush hands he has now are A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (he'd raise the AKs).

hope he has a set.

at first i wanted to call here, see if CO caps and if so check call the river. if CO didn't cap i would bet the river to trap him between, but looking at your hole cards, we're not looking too hot here.

Re: QTd in BB
 

Does everyone like leading the flop? I realize we have an equity edge and want to build a pot, but it would suck if MP2 raised, and would it be so bad to try and hit our flush for free? I also don't think we're taking this down right now on a coordinated board against 3 limpers.

I cap the turn.

But there's 6 combos of 77, and 3x3 of each of the set possibilities for a total of 15 hands we beat versus the two flush combos that we lose to. We'd need to discount the losing combinations very heavily (like by 90%) to be behind his average range, would we not?

we really don't have a read on how he plays postflop, but the average tight passive 15/5 guy is going to have a very hard time 3-betting the turn with any set on this turn. that leaves the 6 combos of 77. do i think he 3-bets them here? not very often. by capping we also run the risk of folding the other dude.

Grunch:

Pre-flop: bet
Flop: good
Turn: call 3-bet

Cap and cap the river if the board doesnt pair up

Here at 2+2, we like to cap every street even when we've made a second best hand. We don't like to look weak tight in the eyes of our peers.

To ESKiMO-SiCKNE5S: Capping this turn and river is probably a significant mistake. What range of hands do you put the button on that you are ahead of? It's pretty obvious he's in love with his hand.

My weak tight perspective: I call the three bet and fold the river if it looks like the river is going to be capped. I don't mind showing this hand down for one more bet on the river, but I'm reluctant to put any more than that in. 15/5s don't limp with Jxs from the button, nor do they 3 bet a J high flush facing obvious aggression on the turn.
