TP TK first to act
Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (8 handed) converter
Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, CO folds, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks. Flop: (5 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(5 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, Button folds, Hero calls. I was hoping to CR this from a LP bet, but BB beats everyone to it. Should I have led this? I sure didn't feel good about a CR after everyone called and didn't want to tie people to the pot so I just called. Turn: (4.50 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls. I checked here with the same thought as the flop, but after everyone called again I kinda choked and just called. In retrospect I think leading the turn would have been better. The best way to protect my hand. Thoughts? River: (8.50 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font> Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls, BB folds. Easy river raise? Final Pot: 11.50 BB <font color="green">Main Pot: 11.50 BB, between Hero, UTG and UTG+1.</font> I've been playing mostly SnGs for the past two months and my ring game (even after reading SSH) feels really rusty. Appreciate any and all comments. |

Re: TP TK first to act
The flop is fine. Hoping to make overcards face two cold is a beautiful idea that didn't work, and you're in perfect position for the check-raise. The bet comes from the BB, so you should call and check-raise a favorable card. Like, say, 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
The turn is horrible. When the five hits, your day just got a whole lot better. People are calling and you have the best hand... and you can trap them for another bet. Raise, and get 4 more bets into that pot. You'll find that when you can trap a whole field for another bet, it's a very beautiful and profitable thing. On the river, if you'd have check-raised, you'd bet out and call a raise. And hope nobody was calling with A5 or something.. |
