[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I'd love to see some arguments for raising [/ QUOTE ] Two arguments for raising: - Hero has an ewuity edge - Hero's semibluff may push opponent off a better hand There are problems with these arguments, however. First, if 5the opponent has 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], we don't have an equity edge. Second, many better hands won't fold, such as trips. [/ QUOTE ] Grunch, what's your line here? If you were to call (as I would), would you lead any turn for 2/3? |

I agree - reraise all-in is what I did, which upon further review, I don't like against an unsuckful player on a paired board.

What's your read of the villain?
At this limit, I'm having trouble believing he's raising here without an 8, and given the cold call (a bad raise, may I add) and a flop raise, I'm thinking he's got a pocket pair... 8s or 9s. The all-in re-raise, imo, is an awful move. In many cases, you only have 2 outs and there's almost not a case I can think of where your straight is good given the action. |

I hadn't seen anything out of line from him. I agree, the min-raise doesn't really accomplish much.. well, accept getting me to push [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
I don't like the push anymore either. If the straight isn't any good, I don't see how the flush can be good either. |
