Default Re: $11 Bubble Call (Flush draw, overcards, gutshot draw)

Thanks everyone for all the comments.

Durron (and everyone else) -- Hypothetically speaking, if UTG had made the raise, what range of hands do you then put him on? With his PF call, flop check, and stack size (5900 to my 3600)... is that still a call then?

I don't think I'm going to put all my chips in the middle for a draw (even with that many outs) on the bubble. Thoughts?

He has position on you, he didn't check-raise you.

I think the possibility of UTG raising behind makes me want to check this flop. Once you've bet, calling a push from the SB is easy. Much harder if UTG comes over the top.

I do not like risking all my chips with just a draw. I am happy to outplay the other player later in the game. This is how I played the $10 games before I moved to the $20 games.

please stop mentioning moving up to the $20 games in every other post.

On the original quesiton, I think this is an instacall.

Regarding your preflop line, is UTG limping a ton (i.e. almost every hand) with the big stack? Has he responded to anyone coming over the top yet?

This is one of my favorite places to come over the top from the BB, with a huge stack just limping in with a ridiculously wide range and the small blind as a small stack completing for likely pot odds only. Its almost always free money.

Assuming UTG is in fact limping almost every hand, he folds and worst case scenario you're heads up against the small stack where (as others have pointed out) you can afford to lose and still have quite a decent stack.

If UTG made the raise, I'd put him squarely on AA or KK. I don't think any other hands try to limp trap like that on the bubble.

I stand corrected. You'll get all sorts of crap limp/trapping here, but I think there's no need in risking your stack against someone who thinks they're playing tricky and likes their hand.
