Re: throw crappy top pair away?
Hmm. Interesting hand.
You have the weak side of the OESD, a BDFD, and top pair. This is definitely worth a flop bet. It sucks that UTG raised here, but so be it. I strongly doubt that UTG has 87 for the flopped nut straight, because he would have slow-played it for sure.
On the turn, you're closing the action getting 8:1. Here is how I'm counting our outs here:
4 outs for 2s
1 out for 7s
.5 outs for 6s
.5 outs for 3s
I'm thinking we have about 6 outs here, and this is probably a little conservative.
45/6 = 7.5
The turn is a call.
