Do you like your implied odds?
Most the players at the table are playing a normal game seeing ~30% of flops. The one player who was in almost every pot has just busted out.
SB and UTG+2 are new to the table this orbit. BB isn't crazy, but is the shortstack at the table and has made a few questionable moves before. Absolute Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, SB completes, BB checks. This is probably the weakest hand I'd have called with in this position. Flop: (3 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, Hero calls, SB calls. I was planning to bet this if it was checked to me and maybe get a free river, rather than take the free turn. But BB saves me from making that decision. Turn: (3 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, Hero ... Like the thread title says. The pot was offering 3.75:1 (if I call 25 cents gets raked.) |

with about 13.5 outs, I like it very much.

I'd raise PF. I might also try to get a free card by raising the flop here.

Re: Do you like your implied odds?
Raising may well have been enough to win the pot. Wish I had thought of it at the time.
The rest of the story: Hero called, SB raised. BB and Hero nervously called. Blank river. SB bet, BB called, Hero folded. SB showed [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3. If SB is confronted with a double bet on the flop, I wonder what HE will think of his implied odds for his OESD. |

Re: Do you like your implied odds?
I like a raise on this flop. You've got a crapload of outs and a buncha fold equity. If one folds on the flop I'll bet it on the turn, and check/fold the river UI.

Re: Do you like your implied odds?
Why not take the free card instead? The person in EP will sometimes take a stab at the pot on the river and if we hit we can raise.
Then again I don't know how tight Absolute 1/2 is. If it's tight postflop then I like your line. |
