10/20 NL: Flopped nut Str8 on a monotone flop!: Line Check!
Stacks.
Villian has about 2400 and Hero covers. Cant remember the bet sizes correctly but its pretty close. Hero has 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in SB. Two limpers including button(button is not such a good player. Not crazy but overplays TPWK and 2 pairs.Will raise preflop with any two over cards). I have been playing aggro against the button and he is definitely looking to get back after I pushed him off a couple of hands and showed him a bluff. Hero completes. Flop j [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Hero checks, BB checks, MP bets 40, Button calls 40, Hero raises to 150, MP calls, Button raises to 500. Call or push? He could have something like 10,J or 7,10. He would have raised any decent ace or pair from the button. He could have limped in with a decent suited connector! Here's what I thought. 1. Call the reraise and C/r any non heart turn. 2. Lead for a pot size bet on the turn? |

Given how you played it, this could for sure be fold. If you read a draw, then call and do a stop and go if no heart, board pairing comes. CRing the turn could be disastorous. Pushing can't be too bad either if he is the type to call with many hands - but the player in between you has something as well.
I really hate your flop line. I'd bet out or check call. It's a limped, multi-way pot and there could easily be a flush out there already - with more than one player showing interest. |

MP is this hand a tight aggressive player. I put the MP on a draw or the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] after he cold calls the raise. I did not put the MP on a flush. Isnt that a strange line from the button? He calls the 40 and then reraises... I hate to lose big pots in an unraised hand but I wanted to see how the action goes against a player whos looking to get me. |

It's the strange line of someone who flopped a flush. [/ QUOTE ] Exactly. And he doesn't have the Ace. He wants to get out the Ace. |

I think button now puts you on a set or something that's live and wants to get the money in with his hand while it's good. In any case, it's foolhardy to get further involved in this pot without a redraw; if you're up against a flush you are dead dead dead. If, say, you are up against a set and the A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], which also might give you this kind of action, then you have .33 EV, which is marginally profitable given the size of the pot, but doesn't outweigh the .00 EV you have the times you go up against a flush. Plus it's crazy variance. Bottom line, you don't want to play a big pot here, so things that inflate the size of the pot (like check-raises and reraises) are mistakes. |

Re: 10/20 NL: Flopped nut Str8 on a monotone flop!: Line Check!
Havnt read the thread, but if it wasnt for the coldcaller, I think this is a pretty clear allin or fold. From your description he could have anything including the nuts or a pair of jacks. You beat most hands, so I probably put him on maybe the bare A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] but more likly something liek Jx with the A or K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
The problem ois the cold caller and what he has. He needs something and it very well could be the Ah making it less likely button is full of it. So in my mind button now has the K :heart with something like a J or a Q for the straight draw or the made flush. In anycase you're in a bad spot. I like folding 60% of the time and calling 40% of the time. If you call and coldcaller comes along, you're very dead on any heart anyways, so try to give yourself a better price. If he does have the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] I dont think he'd fold right now given the odds. If he does fold, well maybe the button does have the ace after all. Given no hearts hit the turn, I think I just open push. Might do the same on a paired board, but its very hard to get someone to lay down a flush trying to represent a fh. Tricky hand, but theres no shame in just laying it down on the flop. |

So, you put them on the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] why? Because it's pretty much all you can beat! Fold.
