Re: Too much? - A8s

I can't believe what I'm reading...no doubt that your suggested play will improve your chances of winning...but that doesn't make it correct. You have very little chance to win this pot. I think you should fold as soon as the BB bets into you on the turn. -ropey [/ QUOTE ] I'm really hoping you missed the fact that shant picked up an extra 9 outs on the turn. Rob |

Re: Too much? - A8s
[ QUOTE ]
i think you'd be hard pressed to find a typical opponent who is able to fold an overpair in this spot. i'd guess QQ and KK are almost never folding, and JJ-TT are calling down like 90% of the time. [/ QUOTE ] This is a great point. At first I thought, great he bet again, now I can blow UTG+1 off of his overpair, but I think I overestimated how often they'll lay it down. Also, another thing to consider is what BB is stop-n-going the turn with. |

However, if you are called, do you value bet the river if it's checked to you? [/ QUOTE ] I'm definitely behind UTG+1, and I'm not sure where I stand with the BB, so I'm not putting in any bets on the river unless I improve. |

Re: Too much? - A8s
No. Call instead. You risk a 3-bet. And who wants a free showdown anyway? He will keep betting his overpair when you river your flush and you can raise then.
EDIT: Btw, since that card completed no draws, there is no way he's folding his overpair on the chance that you hit two pair or a set. |

Re: Too much? - A8s

I open-raise ATs and A9s pretty much automatically, so I wasn't sure about this one, which is part of the reason I titled it that way. I guess it's not so good readless. [/ QUOTE ] BINGO BANGO BONGO! That ladies and gentlemen is the power of poker, all brought to you by the joy that is the 2+2 forums! ....christ, gotta love watching the WPT late night. Anyway, yeah read less I dont make this raise with A9s/A8s...maybe ATs. Anyway I call this turn, last to act I like a raise, but at that point villian has probably popped it already, so 3-bettng would be no good. Eh, I call. No benefits to a raise and Villian isnt folding....yet. |

Re: Too much? - A8s
I would just call preflop if the table is loose otherwise I'd fold. On the flop I would just call and call the inevitable raise from UTG+1's QQ; you can do this as you'll effectively be getting 6.75:1 to hit a 5.5--6.5 outer with implied odds. On the turn, I just call as it smells like the BB has 87 and you'll have to call his 3-bet with the flush draw. Fold the river if you don't hit aces up or the flush.

I would just call preflop [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, this is what I should have done because the table had been going multi-way preflop. I think A8s is pushing it UTG. [ QUOTE ] On the flop I would just call and call the inevitable raise from UTG+1's QQ; [/ QUOTE ] I can't tell if this is a joke since I told you the results, or if you would just call the flop anyway. I raised to knock out overcards. I think I've been convinced that calling the turn is better. |

Re: Too much? - A8s
UTG+1 thought for a sec and called cold. BB 3-bet, I called, UTG+1 called. River was a black 2, BB checked, I checked, UTG+1 checked.
BB - 78o UTG+1 wins with QQ. You guys were right about folding out big pairs. I think calling the turn is best. Maybe even calling the flop too. |
