First blind at the table. If it's any indication, the avg pot ~7.5BB (according to PP).

Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls, MP calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB completes, Hero checks.

 I thought about raising here for like 15 seconds. I figured that I would definitely raise QJs in this spot, so raising QTs couldn't be bad. But I pussy out anyway and check.

Flop: (6 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 players)
SB bets,

 I really don't know why it's so hard for me to decide what to do here...

Ok. Then the only error was not raising PF.

It's close. He can't 5bet you so player dependent it's probably a cap.

You dont want to shut anyone out, so just call.

SteveGriff · #8 08-10-2005, 05:43 AM

I'd call here... you don't want to lose customers behind you when you're on a draw. If you were last to act however the raise is automatic

Regarding the river cap - It's a close decision - but the chances are that he has trip aces as opposed to the full house
