ugh, i need stronger protection
OK, I guess my question, I have to call the all-in here right? I have a decent flush draw and top pair with decent kicker. I've got my outs...I think. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.01 BB (6 handed) SB ($$0.86) Hero ($$1.96) UTG ($$1.84) MP ($$2) CO ($$2.17) Button ($$0.94) Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. MP posts a blind of $0.02. UTG calls $0.02, MP (poster) checks, CO folds, Button folds, SB completes, Hero raises to $0.08, UTG folds, MP calls $0.06, SB calls $0.06. Flop: ($0.28) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font> SB bets $0.78 (All-In), Hero raises to $1.56, MP folds. Turn: ($2.62) K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font> River: ($2.62) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font> Final Pot: $2.62 Results in white below: <font color="white"> SB shows Jd 4d (two pair, jacks and fours). Hero shows Js Qs (one pair, jacks). Outcome: SB wins $1.84. Hero wins $0.78. </font> |

Re: ugh, i need stronger protection
You can get an estimation of your chance of winning the pot by multiplying the number of rounds times your outs times 2. Here you have 9 outs (or a little more), so estimate your chance take 9 * 2 * 2 = 36, or a little better than 1 in 3. Taking into account that you might be ahead, and if hitting a Jack might be good, your chances are even better. Since he's betting 78 to win 28, that's about 3 to 1, so you have a clear call.
Your raise was good. This is a good hand to raise with as in addition to your outs you may have fold equity (this would be more pertinent if you just had the draw). |
