3 post flop folds - too weak?
<font color="purple">First of all, I apologize for posting 3 hands in one post, but since they are related and pretty much similar situations, I will do it.
Next, I'm getting back into 5/10 6-max. My first run was an eye-opener. I played roughly 9k hands, up 100BB (first 3k hands), then ran into a 275BB downswing (last 6k hands). I took a 6 week break from 5/10 SH and went back to 3/6 (playing some 1/2 6-max to get back into the SH mindset). I've been taking stabs at 5/10 6-max (and full) for the past few weeks (keeping about 10% of my weekly hands at 5/10) and had very little luck. One of my problems I seem to run into is calling down too much. Some other times, I get pushed off my hands. At 3/6, I feel real comfortable with these decisions, but at 5/10, I sometimes feel lost.</font> Enough rambling.... here are the hands: <font color="green">In all these hands, the tables are playing on average 45%+ VPIP and about 10-15% pfr.</font> Hand 1: <font color="green">UTG stats: VPIP 54 /PFR 16 AF-F 1.3 - AF-T 1.7 - AF-R 1.6 -CR 2.6</font> Party 5/10 6-max (5 players) pf easypete is on button w/ 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] UTG calls, CO calls, easypete calls, SB folds, BB checks.

Re: 3 post flop folds - too weak?
Easypete:
Hand 1: I am okay with it. If you are not behind, you are most likely playing for a split. Pot is pretty small so the fold looks fine to me. Hand 2: I do not like this fold as much, but what do you do? I don't think he has an 8, but a J is a very real possiblity, as is a picked up flush draw. My first instinct is to raise the turn (fold to a 3 bet) and take a free showdown...but it seems too often my opponent does not cooperate and bets the river again. I dunno, I don't think it is really bad or anything, I am just not as comfortable with it. And when you do fold in this type of spot, you may encourage others to take shots when the scare card comes. Hand 3: Against an unknown, I would probably call down. --Rico |
