Huge pot and I have No clue

Firefly · #1 05-30-2005, 11:31 PM

I've sat down two or three hands ago, so no worthwhile reads.
I was dumbfounded on this hand, i considered folding preflop, but this was going to be a massive pot and i figured implied odds were tremendous. On the flop i also had no clue. So..helllppp meee....

fold preflop. if not, fold preflop when it comes back to you. if not, fold postflop.

What made the seven so scary that you hold to fold when you have top pair and a decent kicker? By the way, I think you had no business playing the hand in the first place.

Not really the reply you are looking for im sure, but after some responses i would be interested in seeing the results for this hand..one big pot for 1/2.

I don't limp with this hand, and I'd toss it after a raise and 3bet preflop.

I don't think it's the 7 that made me fold, i think it was the 3-cold. I try not to call 3 cold that often.
I also thought that after 3 limpers JTo was probally a call. I don't think it's horrible, but advice noted.

You shouldn't be calling two cold that often either. Most of the times that it's two cold to you and you want to stay in the hand, you should be 3betting.

I only limp JTo in the cutoff or on the button. You ended up getting a fine price on your limp (6:1).

Postflop is fine. You're drawing live against two AAs or AA and KK. On the turn, it looks like UTG has you drawing dead. You could bet or raise, but really, the pot is that big that even for four bets, you're going to see the turn, and you're not in position to slow things down at all.

Co had Q7o
SB had QQ
UTG had 86s and took it down
