Hilger Hand Example (9h3h)

[Scuba Chuck]

<font color="blue"> I have a question on the following example (p.57) </font>

Limit $20-40
You hold 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in the SB. Two middle players call and you call. Four players see the flop of:

9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

There is $80 in the pot. Should you bet or check-raise?

Answer Bet

<font color="blue"> How many players need to be in this pot before you need to consider your reverse implied odds here? My instincts here were to check, a c/r never even enters my mind. Furthermore, how different does this hand play at a $3-$6 game? </font>
