Quiz #2

[Festus22]

Awhile back I posted a quiz asking what the majority of 2+2 posters would do versus what I did when faced with these situations. I thought the results were very interesting so here is Quiz #2. Please post your answers (either raise, call or fold) without looking at other responses. I'll keep a running tab on where the results stand.

Thanks for participating!

[Gravy (Gravy Smoothie)]

1) Raise. If he 3-bets, call and check/call to the river unless the fourth flush card hits.

2) Flat call.

3) Fold, unless he's a maniac. Just because they play any two doesn't mean they raise any two preflop.

4) Bet, raise, 3-bet, cap, as much as possible. Jam that [censored].

5) Coldcall. This hand merits a look at the turn.

6) Bet out. If raised, call and check/call the river. If called, bet the river.

7) Muck.

8) Cap.

[CardCuda]

1 - Raise the cheap st.

2 - Call (UTG+1 = KJ)

3 - Fold

4 - Check Raise

5 - Fold

6 - Raise

7 - Call

8 - 50/50 on this Call/Fold, I'd a played it differently but since the quiz bet the turn i'd probably call it down. I feel I've been slow played considering the the river action. Chop?

[BugsBunny]

Check to get information? What information are you going to get? I bet out on this hand and possibly go for a c/r on the turn (depending on how many callers etc). If I check the flop it's with the intention of c/r *if* the bet comes from my immediate left. If the bet comes from my right I just call looking for the overcall.

Comments
1. Not close.
2. He's checkraised you twice knowing you could have AA/QQ/TT so I'm beginning to suspect the nuts.
3. Not close.
4. I can't think of any reason to do anything but bet.
5. Rainbow flop, I would call. Two-tone board turns a marginal call into a fold.
6. Hard to believe he has worse than AK at this point but the pot has gotten too big to fold headsup. KQ and 99 are likely hands.
7. Very close, but closing the action tips the scale.
8. You have too much hand to fold after no one showed strength on the turn.

Not close, LW. If there's a flush out there, you're drawing dead. The J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] can't be considered clean outs. Also, any T puts four to the straight on the board. I would muck this every time.

[Lost Wages]

Yes you are drawing dead to a flush so you need an overlay on your outs to call. 2 queen outs and 3 jack outs that's five. Don't be so quick to discount your 2 ten outs. What hand do you put the others on that contains a jack? Even if you only have 5 outs that's 8.2:1 and you are getting 9:1 closing the action. Like I said, it's close. I wouldn't fault anyone for folding.
