I might've been more agressive on the flop, but the possible low draw is a tad worrisome. Other than that, I wouldn've have been going anywhere. If it's any consilation (I'm assuming you ran into the King-high flush?) I was playing 3-handed one time and had the nut high on the turn and the 2nd nut low on the river (there was only one foe in the pot with me) and on the river I had the 2nd nut low and 2nd nut high, and my opponent happened to have the top nuts for high and low, what can ya do? You figure 3 people at the table and only one opponent in the hand with you, that 2nd nuts for both high and low you're good at least one way, but I guess not always. |

Re: did I overplay this?
Underplayed on the flop... raise and push off the weak high and low draws.
Nice push on the turn to get rid of any lingering low-only draws. Overplayed on the river. Low hand + spade (possible nut) flush filled up. With four remaining in the pot, your best hope is most likely a split. Call the single bet, call or fold to the reraise depending on your read and SB's action. |

Granted, there's a possible low, and Hero has the 2nd nut high hand at this point. I think more often than not, Hero is ahead on this river (against these particular opponents) and stands to make more money in the long-run betting it than check-calling. Also, I don't feel the flop play was poor, since there are many draws out there that he's probably not going to be able to push anyone out to narrow the field. Instead, he'll just be creating a larger pot that he potentially may not win (depending on how the turn and river play out) |

Re: did I overplay this?
Good points on the type of players you typically face at lower limits at PP, I tend to steer toward the conservative when critiquing... without having been at that table I'd rather err on the side of caution and encourage solid play than assume it was weak, even if it probably was [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
I still would have been aggressive on the flop.. even facing a strong hand like KQ34ds he's about even to scoop and better than 2:1 to split. The only real danger is a double suited set with a nut low draw (not very likely, especially here... and a raise would probably flush this hand out.) Sure, they may call down and suckout with a weak hand, but they're going to have to pay to do it. If they want to keep sticking around playing for half the pot, they'll get eaten alive. I'd agree with your analysis of the river if he had any kind of low hand... chances are good one of them stuck around to hit some kind of low, and without a nut high I'd be concerned about being too aggressive shooting for what is probably a split pot here. |

[/ QUOTE ] In my view, if I'm getting half the pot, I want the other three suckers (two whom are being quartered and one who is playing the 6th nut hand) to put more money into the pot for me to snag. Then again, I'm a crazy agressive mofo |

Re: did I overplay this?
*If* you're getting half the pot a raise here nets you at best one additional bet profit.... if you're confident in the implied odds and think that play will pay off more than once in four at that particular table, by all means go for it.
A little too close to the line in this case to inspire a raise out of me, but these are the variations that make even world class poker exciting [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |
