Dumb fold or dumb luck?
Sorry, just had to get this one off my chest...
Party 0.5/1, 10 at the table. I'm dealt T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] UTG+1. UTG limps; my play. The table is pretty loose, there are a couple of players behind me who seem to like raising pre-flop, which I don't fancy so I fold... Two more limpers and the blinds stay in. Flop comes J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and it checks around. Bugger. Turn card is (of course) the K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Bugger. Bugger. Bugger. LP bets and takes the pot unchallenged. I would've played it from MP or LP (right or wrong?), was this a foolish fold or was I right to bail? RH |

Re: Dumb fold or dumb luck?
Key words being "likely to raise" make this an easy fold.
Even without those key words I fold. |

I play QTs UTG ... unless there is a lot of preflop raising.
You called the table the way you saw it and made a reasonable choice. Next hand. |

Knowing I am going to hit the Royal if I dont fold, I probably play this, I might even raise.

Good fold given the table conditions you describe. Don't sweat it.

Unless the table has been insane, I.e. 3 bets + each hand you can limp this.

If I start bottling and selling this hindsight, how much do you think I should charge? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Dumb fold or dumb luck?
I play QTs UTG at any loose table. With a limper, I'd play it all day.
"Seem to like raising pre-flop"? Unless that means that almost every hand was raised, this is a routine limp. Either way: don't worry about it. The EV difference of limping or folding on any given QTs here is probably very small. If either is a mistake, I doubt it's a major one. |
