Live 3/6 Hand
This was a hand I played at last night at a live 3/6 Hold em game at the Gold Strike in Tunica. The table was pretty loose with a couple of conservative players. I limped in from late position with J10o. The flop came J-J-x rainbow. The turn and river brought two under cards with no straight or flush possibilities.
The player to my immediate right was a loose passive player. Three or four players took the flop. A player in early position bet, which was called by the player to my right and myself. On the turn, the player who bet the flopped checked. The player to my right bet, which I called and the player who checked folded. We were heads up. The river came and the player to my right bet. What is my action? |

Re: Live 3/6 Hand
It would help to know your exact hole cards, and all of the exact cards on the board.
Given that we only know that you have three jacks, you need to raise somewhere. I'd usually like to do it on the flop (depending on the flop texture). EDIT - It's also nice to know the pre-flop action as well. |

Re: Live 3/6 Hand
My hole cards were J10o.
I don't remember what was on the board. I think the flop was J-J-7. The turn was a two and the river was maybe a five. I think four players took the flop including the BB. The pot after the flop was $12. The players who took the flop were all loose passive. |

The suits of the cards are just as important as the card rank.

Re: Live 3/6 Hand
Not really in this case. Raise the flop! 3 of a kind is a good hand.

Re: Live 3/6 Hand
Raise the river. It'd be a crime to call flopped top trips the whole way down w/o raising.
You could also raise the flop, or turn, depending on preference. |

Re: Live 3/6 Hand
I say you're good to win this pot of 7BB about 20% of the time. But I think you'll be re-raised too many times if you bet because of a higher kicker or a filled up full house. This makes a call your best option here.

Re: Live 3/6 Hand
You should get up from the table. Go to your local bookstore and then buy Small Stakes Hold'em (or possibly Getting Started In Hold'em if SSH looks a bit complicated to you).
I'm not trying to be mean but super passive playing is going to cost you a ton of money in the long run and you simply will not be a winning player. |

Re: Live 3/6 Hand
Not raising at some point in this hand is criminal.
