Re: Semi-slowplay with underfull
I don't know what I'm looking at. (no results)
I assume you won, but 'flush boy' will still pay your raise on 5th. |

Re: Semi-slowplay with underfull
given 2 dead 4's and 1 dead Q by 5th, I think you have to raise 5th, there is too good a chance that the flush draw will cold call 2, or that he has some other hand that will cold call 2 or wouldn;t call 1, and you might win a 3rd bet by someone betting queens up. Only 1 combination has you beat, unless you really think that the first player won;t cold call this is a big mistake.

Re: Semi-slowplay with underfull
Please explain. I am not thinking just about the fifth street action when I do not raise there.

Re: Semi-slowplay with underfull
I see what you are doing on fifth and I think I like it for the deception value. When the fours are paired and you back down, seat one who is very likely on a flush draw figures his flush has to be good on sixth. You also want him in the hand and drawing for that flush.
If you raise fifth and he figures you for a boat, he likely folds. You may have also driven out seat five who makes a bad decision and hangs around to the end as things turn out. So all in all, maybe you get one or two more big bets on fifth by raising, but you could also end up with nothing more. As things turn out and the flush hits, you end up collecting 8 big bets from your victims on sixth and seventh. If seat 5's hand hand not been so dead, I would agree entitrely with raising fifth. So I think this was a pretty slick play that worked out perfectly for you. |

Re: Semi-slowplay with underfull
You would raise 5th with two pair right or trips right?
Then why the heck not with a boat. The flush draw is comming along for two bets and you will still likely get paid off on 6th. I think you cost yourself a bet from seat 1 and a bet from seat 5 in this hand by not raising. |

Two pair I might fold, depending on my read of the player with the (xx)Q44; he's representing a hand that beats Jacks up, and there's really no reason not to believe him. Actually, if I didn't catch on fifth and he caught the open pair and bet I'd almost surely fold, given the fourth street action. Thus calling is essentially telling everyone I have jacks up but don't want to fold. |

Re: Semi-slowplay with underfull
Played extremely well. My only quibble is with 3rd street. I would complete here if I decided to play. Your call on 5th is perfect b/c you don't mind the likely 4-flush to continue drawing dead and it could confuse him abotu your holding if you hit, which it clearly did. Nice play all around.
