Default PF Posters and implied post-flop odds

If there's a poster in the hand and you're limping with a small pair, don't count on the poster putting in any more action than the BB post-flop.

Now, they certainly reduce your post-flop implied odds requirements by increasing your current pot odds, but they don't actually add much to your post-flop implied odds.

Just thought I'd mention this.

I disagree, especially if it is an EP poster. They may not be going to war over pots, but they'll more likely than not be the sort of player who'll see a turn with any sort of a weak draw.

Yeah. It's better to raise to isolate that player's random hand and dead money.

That makes a ton of sense, and you're right that it depends on what position they are in.

Obviously, "it depends."

Having 22 UTG, and an MP1 poster, it's a call, right?

Of course. But starting from around MP, I'd seriously consider raising.

Hell yeah. As long as we're on the same page.

Or you're UTG with AA, and you've got Entity, Shill, NLSoldier, and like 6 other mean bastards, one of which posted in MP2 just to spite you, to your direct left.

The correct play here is to raise and pray that they all fold, then to decline posting your BB, and get the hell out of there. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
