Default Sometimes, I know when to fold \'em....

Party 1/2 full ring, only 6 seated at the moment. I have ~$220 and 76o in the BB.

MP($210) calls, then button ($62) minraises to $4. I call and MP calls

Flop ($13) A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I check, MP checks, Button bets $8. I raise to $25. MP calls, button pushes, and I turbomuck.

Comments? I've deliberately left out my reasons for both the check/raise and muck; I'm sure some, if not all, readers will figure them out.

Leading would've been bad because on that board, it's a sure way to get action when you lead. A c/r is good, especially against the button, because there's a good chance you could take it down. Your muck is obviously because you didn't have pot odds.

Nope. The rest of your post is more or less correct, though.

Didn't notice he was so short. My bad. Meta-game reasons?

Edit- messed up with quoting, etc.

Okay, now I'm curious. What's the reason? Misclick?

You disappoint me. The solution can be deduced from the original post if you assume all players at the table are fairly reasonable (not a huge assumption in the Party 1/2 game in my experience).

I'm leaving to go play live in a few minutes but I'll check the thread either when I get back or tomorrow morning. If you don't get it by then, I bet zaxx, schwza, BobboFitos, TheWorstPlayer, fslexcduck, or one of the other regulars will have done so.

Default WOW, tbach24 = fish

MP2s overcall I guess. Do you think it's worth it to see if he'll continue slowplaying/drawing?
