Default Re: QTs makes flush on non-pair board, calls river raise

One thing I forgot to add. When I'm in Villain's position on the river I wouldn't raise with the 7 or 8 high flush. I would go for the overcall which would also keep me from being reraised by the nut flush. If I have the nut flush then I hope to see the river capped.

With only one more player behind you I think this is a mistake.

If I call and UTG folds I've lost 1BB (if I'm ahead). If UTG calls I break even. If I raise then UTG will most likely fold. If I raise and get reraised am I going to fold? I don't think you can at this level. So when I lose to the higher flush I lose TWO additional BB.

You may say the odds of being over-flushed aren't that great but if you look how the hand played out then it wouldn't be unreasonable to suspect that Hero here also had a flush. If he does then most likely it's higher than our 7 high.

So it comes down to I'm risking missing out on 1 BB in order to possibly save losing 3 BB. I think it's a good play so that's the way I play it. If I'm wrong then so be it.

What 7 high? We have a Q high flush.

I bet the flop and call the river.

This is a classic flop bet that most people miss. I could swear that I knew of a good example like this in SSHE, but in my short perusing I couldn't find it. You'll just have to trust me. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Actually I lied. It's not in the overcards section It's the KJ example on page 139, in the evaluating drawing hands section. I think that this is the most similar example. Let me know if this what you were looking for.

Are you possibly thinking of the one where we're holding T9 and the flop is A76? They recommend raising there to help clear your 10 and 9 outs.
