Re: $11\'s small PP (2 Hands)
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] 1: I agree, I don't like folding this preflop. I'm not sure why people are saying that. On the other hand, I'm playing for set value... I don't think I fall in love with that flop the way you did. [/ QUOTE ] IMO, If you don't have the discipline to get away from a whiffed flop with 55, you should fold it PF. If you are playing for "set value" (the only way to play 55, really) you are looking for a hell of a lot more limpers for this to be a +EV call. I suppose an argument can be made that with such a deep stack combined with the implied odds if you hit, that limping t50 isn't such a big deal. [/ QUOTE ] I generally have no problem folding PP when over cards hit. However, 6 high on flop... this was difficult...

[/ QUOTE ] To me, the ridiculous overbet from the BB means one of two things: 1) I hit my top pair and I don't want any of you overcards drawing out on me, or 2) My 77 is probably good right now and i don't want any of you overcards drawing out on me. Or maybe it means he hit a pair of 4s and wants to steal a rag flop. I just don't think he commits that many chips with less than top pair. I would have liked that flop when it first came down -- but after that huge bet, probably would have laid down the 55.

He hit top pair, w/ good kicker.
