If there is one thing I can say with absolute certainty, it is this: Calling the flop is a terrible play. The end. [/ QUOTE ] Wow, that's so illuminating. Care to elaborate. |

I agree that getting 3-bet does suck, but if you call the flop, are you going to call? [/ QUOTE ] I assume you mean are you then going to call on the turn. I guess it depends, but if Button calls behind you and a total blank falls (neither A nor K nor [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]) and villain fires out again on the turn, can't you fold with a pretty clean conscience? |

I was going to respond but it is silly. Anyone who wants to tell me what a call accomplishes here can go ahead and do it. I promise to read. So far not a single good argument has been made for calling. Calling is the worst form of chip spewing in this hand.

Raising does NOT improve your situation in any way. You call this flop, if you hit an ace or a king you raise. If it completes a four flush you fold to a 3bet otherwise call 3bets down. This hand is very simple. [/ QUOTE ] |

I see no reason to raise that flop.

I am not supporting raise as the best play. I am supporting call as the worst.

I am not supporting raise as the best play. I am supporting call as the worst. [/ QUOTE ] Would you mind explaining, in lurid detail, your thoughts on: 1. Raising 2. Calling 3. Folding this flop in this spot. Perhaps then we can get somewhere. brett |
