Ass end Str8
The table was reforming after a break down so all but me and MP are new. MP has been stealing the blinds with crap. I know my PF hand was nothing to be calling in this hand with but I was holding my own on previous hands post flop. I decided to peek at the flop.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 6 handed) converter Button ($35.15) SB ($38.85) BB ($22.1) UTG ($65.6) MP ($130.73) Hero ($105.05) Preflop: Hero is CO with 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.5. <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $2</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls $2, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB calls $1. Flop: ($6.50) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks. Turn: ($6.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $3</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $6</font>, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $12</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $50</font>, UTG calls $51.60 (All-In), Hero calls $13.60. River: ($133.70) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font> Final Pot: $133.70 |

Re: Ass end Str8
Chances are that your hand is good unless UTG is capable of raising KQ here. Most likely, he has 2 pair or a set and was looking for a check/raise on the flop. I hope you took this down.
EDIT: I just realized that this was 6 max, but still, raising KQ from UTG seems a bit fishy, and since that's the only hand that beats you, I'm having trouble getting away from this. |

Re: Ass end Str8
I think you have to call.
But, this is a perfect example of what happens when you make unneccesary calls pre-flop. |

Re: Ass end Str8
I think you have to get all-in with this, but if he had KQ it a) shows why the preflop call was marginal and b) why they call it the ass end of the straight. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
I have a nagging hunch he had KQ though, due to the min re-raise. |
