tough to not want to raise this. BB may call 2 with the 5 and you would hate to see an A on the river having not raised. Now may be your only chance. No brainer rasie to me.

you're going to showdown no matter what, so i raise the turn and call a 3bet, and call the river unless it's an A

If I just call BB will call 95% of the time on the turn AND river + LAG will often bet a worse hand then mine on the river when I just call. In addition they BB will often call a riverraise and UTG will call it some of the time. The risk is of course that I'm looking at 8-12 cards that can beat me on the river. |

[/ QUOTE ] If you raise, and they both fold "a lot of the time", I don't see winning the pot right then and there as a problem. It's significantly better than them each sticking around with 6 overcards outs (and since UTG is betting on the turn, you're letting him draw to those for free). You mention a 3-bet means you're behind "at least" 30% of the time. Is there an upper range on this? The % needs to be very very high for the raise not to be worth it if he was going to fold a non-paired hand, and call with an underpair. |

[/ QUOTE ] I would expect a call from a 5 in the BB, but in this particular case we can only trust your judgement. As for getting three bet from LAG that is great. We are definitely not folding (even to a river A), he can't really have a PP bigger than ours unless our 'LAG' limped with 88. We might lose to quads, but I'm not gonna let that freeze me up here. |

When BB calls the flop, why do you think it is more likely that he has a five than a pocket pair?
