A7 stop & go from BB
Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (6 handed) converter
UTG and SB are brand new to the table. Preflop: Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. UTG calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks. Flop: (3 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, SB calls, Hero calls. If I'm ahead, I'm not that far ahead. I figure I don't really want to build a huge pot here with a reraise. Or should I? Turn: (4.50 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG folds, SB calls. Turn doesn't figure to help except if someone has a Q, but I'm planning to fold to a raise here. River: (6.50 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> SB checks, Hero checks. Not much I beat can call me here, right? Final Pot: 6.50 BB |

Re: A7 stop & go from BB
kind of interesting hand. I think the stop n go is ok here, but I think you should definitely bet the river against SB. There is a lot you can beat that will call.

Re: A7 stop & go from BB
Eh, I think the river check is marginal. It completes the flush draw if that's why SB cold called two on the flop. Still, he could also have a lower 7 that would call you for value. If you're feeling confident that this guy aint too tricky, I might bet/fold but more often than not get stuck with bet/call.

Re: A7 stop & go from BB
Since the flush draw got there and the straight cards/pair of queens are probably also looking somewhat scary to the SB, I didn't think he'd call down with any smaller pair or A high. Maybe a crying call from a 67 that got counterfeited on the river?

Re: A7 stop & go from BB
67 definitely calls. Any 6 or 7 calls, as well as any 3 that got there. Ace high often calls. When someone gets to the river with a pair at 5/10 6max they hardly ever fold it. Especially when the river pairs the board and they think you might be bluffing something.
EDIT: Also, that's a scary river for someone with a pair of 7s like you have. A lot of times the SB doesn't go for a checkraise with a flush. |

Re: A7 stop & go from BB
He's brand new, so I had no idea if he was tricky or not. This is a non-6max table so I expect fewer river calls with really marginal stuff than at a 6max table. Being ahead more than half the time when called felt like a stretch to me, but I do tend to wuss out on the river sometimes.

Re: A7 stop & go from BB
I'm becoming a little more convinced but since SB cold-called preflop and is totally unknown, I'm guessing he's on a flush or straight draw. Even for really loose-passive fish, I think it's tough to cold-call two on the flop with middle/bottom pair in this spot.

Re: A7 stop & go from BB
Looks good, call down if raised I guess. Also bet the river, please.
