5-10 live and a proper free showdown play. (I think)
Ten handed at Greektown. The SB is a typical 5-10 player here. Probably sees 38% of the flops and can't help but bet when checked too. And won't 3bet or even raise on the big streets without a monster. The turn caller is a pay station.
3 calls, I limp J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in CO, button folds, SB calls, BB checks. (6 SB) FLOP: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] It's checked around. (3 BB) TURN: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] SB bets, BB folds, fold, call, fold, I raise, SB 3bets, fold, I fold...... |

I really don't like it at all. Folding to the 3-bet is a no-brainer, but in relation to WillMagic's recent post, what hands does he have that make this FSP worthwhile? Nothing outside of a diamond draw. I think he has a pair much more often. I'd call down but if I raised the turn and wasn't 3-bet I don't see why you wouldn't bet the river.

A 5/10 party game limping and raising are closer to neutral EV, but in a live game like the one described in the OP raising is clearly > calling IMO. |

And what do you think about the more interesting part, namely the turn?
I'd say its a value raise and easy fold to the 3-bet. But it should be with the intention to bet the river if noone raises, not for a free showdown. |

Re: 5-10 live and a proper free showdown play. (I think)
since there is a caller in between SB and hero I think this a clear raise/fold to a 3-bet. The reason being is that we are likely ahead of the caller and would like to charge him the times he has a decent draw and we should find out fairly quickly if we are crushed by the sb. OTOH, if sb had bet and everybody folds to us then I favor just calling down.
Also, if I raise the turn and am not 3-bet I am betting most rivers. |
