75c in the BB
Same 10/20 live game at Greektown. It's loosened up a bit.
UTG+1 is slightly loose-aggressive UTG+2 is slightly loose-passive MP1 is loose-passive Button seems average I don't know what I'm doing. Did I get any street right? Give me a better line. Preflop: Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls. Flop: (10 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, Button calls.

Re: 75c in the BB
That seems like just a perfect play. Standard call preflop. Bets for value on the flop since the preflop raiser is on your right, hoping he will raise the flop and more $ for you.
The call on the turn is standard, a raise behind you is nothing to worry about. You have nothing on the river, obviously you should fold. Nice hand. |

[/ QUOTE ] I'm not sure what you mean, maybe the terminology is confusing me, but do you mean we should bet the turn? Well, it would not be a disaster, especially not if everybode calls, in that case it's quite nice with a bet. But if a couple of them folds and the button raises or something like that, your bet was not for value. If the river is a 4 or a 9, hero will definitely win. Otherwise he will lose. To me, a check/call is obvious, and I'm quite sure somebody will bet that turn. The odds against making the straight is 4.88-to-1. |

Re: 75c in the BB
Aha okey, my bad. The preflop call is obviously correct, a blunder if you fold that. Assuming the limpers call (why wouldn't they), the pot is laying you 9-1. A standard call with a suited one-gap connector. And in the case you flop a strong open-ended straight draw or a flush draw, it's a perfect situation betting for value on the flop, with the preflop raiser to your right; just like we saw in this hand.

Re: 75c in the BB
good point guys, i just dont like calling when it can be raised again behind me and i only have 7 high.
on the other hand the odds are great, my hand is most likely live and well concealed however... 7 high out of position , ugh , its just hard for me to push the call button [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] |
