Rag flop with 77
Table was pretty loose passive so I felt alright limping with 77 UTG. UTG+1 had been pretty tight up to this point so I didn't think he was raising light. With the rag flop I thought there was a chance I was ahead and debated between raising and folding, and decided to fold. With no read on the BB how would you play this?

Re: Rag flop with 77
I probably would have raised the flop & gone from there.

Re: Rag flop with 77
You still have a good chance of the best hand on the flop. A big pocket pair has you, but it's just as likely the BB and UTG+1 have suited overcards or just overcards. I wouldn't raise the flop, but I would the turn (make draws pay here).

Re: Rag flop with 77
with no read, easy flop raise, BB could be the type of person to bet while holding a 5. raising also gives you an idea of how much the remaining players like their hands.

Re: Rag flop with 77
Would you fold to a 3-bet? Would you lead out any non paint turn card and fold to a raise? Check/fold an A or K turn?

Re: Rag flop with 77
Folding to a flop 3-bet after you've raised is almost never right.

[/ QUOTE ] I would raise the flop and fold to a 3-bet. 95% of the time a 3-bet on this board means you are drawing to 2 outs. If called on the flop raise, lead any turn card and fold to a raise. If called on the turn, consider check-folding the river depending on the opponent(s) and turn/river cards. |

Re: Rag flop with 77
Raise the flop.. You want so many as posibal to fold. 2 bets can do this. Probably are you ahead. And if you are not then you have a backdoor stright and 2 outs to a set. If I got 3-bet then I would decide what to do deppending on who 3-bet...

But I'm not folding on the flop to a 3-bet. The more coldcallers there are behind me, the more this is true. |
