Top set on flush board

catlover · #1 11-07-2005, 05:14 PM

I'd be very interested in any comments on my thought process.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $6 BB (6 max, 6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

BB ($628.35)
UTG ($733)
MP ($587.10)
Hero ($1122.05)
Button ($247.80)
SB ($836.05)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
2 folds, Hero raises to $15, 1 fold, SB (poster) calls $12, BB calls $9.

Flop: ($45) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
SB bets $35, BB calls $35, Hero calls $35.

Flop: I could be behind, and if I'm ahead my edge is not that big if someone has a diamond.

Turn: ($150) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $100, SB calls $100, BB calls $100.

Turn: If someone checked a flush, more power to 'em. More likely someone has a single diamond in which case I need to bet.

River: ($450) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $600, SB calls $600, BB folds.

River: I decided to go for a bit of an overbet cos my hand was so strong.

Final Pot: $1650

From a personal standpoint... and this might not be the "correct" play... I have lost so much god damn money flopping huge hands with a 3 flush board.

I have AA with the nut flush draw... flop top set... flop middle set...

I just stay away from these situations. If may be the wrong thing to do .... but my reads always seem off in this specific play.

Sorry to give you advice as a pusssy... but if someone wants to make a move against me on 3 flush flop ... kudos to them.

No... but I don't try to build a huge pot.

I bomb flop.
U were the PFR, so you could very easily have AKd, or KKd, here.
I have no problem getting it in on flop.
something like JdT will prolly fold, which is fine.

Wait, so you're bluffing?

No, what i mean is, hero is worried about any hand with a diamond.
But Hero could easily have a large diamond, something like Jtd or Qjd has difficulty drawing.
Against Kd, you woulda heard on the flop.

I think by reading the post it's pretty obvious sb has an underset or baby flush... I Assume this based on his lead/check/check/ call.

Now... what if you raise the flop and the SB comes over the top for something like $1,000? do you insta-call with top set?

If SB has a baby flush, he plays really bad.
