UTG+1 calls $1, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls $1, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls $1, Hero calls $1, SB (poster) completes, UTG (poster) checks. Flop: ($6) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(7 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $4</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds, CO folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $10</font>, SB folds, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $35</font>, Hero ??? UTG is decent, extremely tight and aggressive postflop. 13/4/3.0. Easy fold, is it not? |

I dont mind a flat call against an agressive player to see what the turn brings.

I call this and push a non pairing turn....
I think A8/A9/98 is what you is up against.... |

I've no idea why the converter displays the information incorrectly, but the UTG player is actually the BB. (probably due to a missed blind).

Re: NL 100, fold the premium draw on the flop?
Villain would play like this with two pair, being afraid of the flush draw, and also with a set. There are many more ways he can have two pair than a pair - I make it 21 against 7 (including AA which is unlikely given no pfr against a large field). You are actually slightly ahead of A8 and 89, are slightly behind A9 and are a 2:1 dog against a pair other than AA.
Personally I think it's push or fold here - if a total blank comes on the turn I don't see two pair folding, and you only have one card to come. If a heart comes you may not make much more anyway. It's fairly marginal but I think a push is right - the pot's big so you will make money even if two pair folds every time and a set calls every time. |

Re: NL 100, fold the premium draw on the flop?
I hate this kind of hands. There's so much that can go wrong and so much that can turn out good and that makes them really hard to play well in the heat of the moment. I'm at work so I can't pokerstove this, but my 2 c is that you have the best hand by the river more than 1/3 of the time (which would make folding bad).

Why would folding as about a 2-1 dog be bad?

Re: NL 100, fold the premium draw on the flop?
Dont forget, you also have a backdoor straight draw and a possibility of getting 2 of the same cards higher than a 9 to have a better 2 pair. You should definitely push

Re: NL 100, fold the premium draw on the flop?
If UTG is a true TAG then this is a push or fold situation because you aren't getting paid if your flush hits. You are basically getting 2-1 on your money and based on the below analysis I think you can push here as long as villain's range is wider than a set.
