<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls.

Final Pot: 18 BB



I took alot of crap for this hand, but I thought the turn call was OK. With two flush showing, is calling for gutshot that bad?

Obviously unimproved, i am folding to a turn bet. Sorry I don't use PT yet, so I don't have any stats for you. SB had been playing pretty loose as far as I remember, but had hit some big hands and played them well postflop.

What are your reads on your opponents here? I'm thinking you probably should've folded preflop, but reads would help.

Edit: I think the flop is a fold too.

You should have folded preflop. Suited connectors don't play well against one limper.

Everything else I'd play the same. I might fold the flop but I don't see anything wrong with calling it either.

Yeah, loose call preflop even with the button. I generally don't make this call with only one limper ahead of me.

I didn't have much on UTG, he claimed to have folded a set on the turn which means he limped with a small pair.

Table was playing pretty loose, about 45% seeing flop as I remember. I was multi-tabling so I really can't say much more.

Anyway, thanks for the responses.

IMO there's NO hand you should ever be limping with at that point.

We've been discussing this in Mid Stakes, and if the limper is a bad player there are some hands that you can limp on the button that aren't worth raising.

Not to hijack the thread, but would you fold a set of 4's or 6's here on the turn with up to 10 outs? Seems like you have plenty of outs + implied odds to call here getting 4.5-1 on the turn.

you need to fold this preflop. this is a speculative hand and you arent getting good odds with only 1 limper. nevertheless, postflop is fine. you are getting 9-1 and have 3 clean gutshot outs and maybe 2 outs for the overs for a total of 5 making it worth continuing. on the turn you have the nut straight so cap that shite. i like the raise on the river as it is unlikley he runner runner flushed you from previous action.

I would never fold a set on the turn, and I raise this flop with a set as well.

I can understand sometimes waiting for the turn to raise with a set, but this seems like a flop that needs a raise.

I disagree with all the "flop preflop" posts. I'm raising here preflop.
