Default Re: 93s from BB (my first post)

I fail to see how this is a nice hand, at least the flop play. I was going back and forth on this.

In a SH pot, it is always best to bet out if you were planning on check/calling. However, this pot isn't big enough to support even that. Hero has 6.5 outs and would be getting 5:1 odds if MP1 bets and SB calls. He needs to be getting just over 7:1 for a reasonable call.

With such a marginal hand in a small pot, I don't see this as a check/call let alone a bet out. Put one more player in the pot and then the pot odds would be in Hero's favor.
