Default Re: Nut low, 2nd nut flush draw, gutshot vs low chaser

[ QUOTE ]

I wouldn't raise all-in on the turn. You've gotten called on the flop and the turn and are raised all-in. You may already be quartered by the all-in guy. You've just got nut low and the draw. Call & see the river. No reason to raise all-in imo. I'm not too crazy about being raised all-in with just the nut low.

Let me expand a bit on my initial line of thinking on the turn allin raise.

I had no history of play with the allin raiser (sir_rebrum), HOWEVER - he had been playing loosely, and was shortstacked. I figured him for a one-way hand at best, since shortstack shoves from loose players usually are desperation allin bets.

I made the reraise to pressure the guy behind me (jasonsull). Remember that I am out of position against him, and flat-calling gives him the opportunity to repot on the turn or pot the river, assuming that I check unimproved. I wanted to turn the tables. However, now that I've had time to think about this hand, my move was inconsistent with my read on him (see the OP).

So why would I want to re-raise? Call and hope to hit the flush on the river and get your money in there.

Remember that I also have a gutshot straight draw, which adds a small bit of equity.

Say I just flat-call the turn. The river bricks. Check? Small bet?
