Another Leak?

#1 11-08-2005, 07:13 PM

I am not sure if this is a leak in my game or a decent play. Should I just find a fold preflop? Do I find a river fold? I often find myself in these situations on Party 2/4.

Party 2/4 (10 handed)

UTG+2 has 40 VPIP/9 PFR/1 AF stats.

Preflop:
2 folds UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, 3 folds, Hero raises from button with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2 folds, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls.

Flop (7.5SB): 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG+2 bets, MP1 folds, Hero raises, UTG+2 calls.

Turn (5.75 BB): 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG+2 checks, Hero checks.

River (5.75 BB): 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG+2 bets, Hero calls.

Preflop is good. You raised for a free card and took it, so that's good too, but I'd fold the river.

I definitely fold this river. The pot is small and I think this is a clear fold.

having 3-bet I think you need to drop it on that flop. Calling the river is unheard of.

sorry I misread the PreF action. thought it was raised in from of hero

Why are people talking about folding preflop? There was no raise before the action got to Hero.

Raising KQo on the Button after two limpers is fine.

You simply cannot be folding this hand preflop.

Don't expect to get wealthy playing KQo but it is +EV.

If the player is at all decent your hand is transparent by the river. I would call with an ace.
And fold if you have never seen this player bluff before.

Preflop is good. When he bets the flop that most likely means a pair (though could be a draw sometimes). Pot is still small I don't think you're good often enough to call here.

Thanks for the replies. I think the river call is a leak, since the pot is small enough and my hand is not good often enough. I need to take the free card and fold to a bet on the river. This hand comes up often, so I think this has been a pretty big leak. Thanks.

I assume you meant you fold the flop?

Either way, that's bad.

I'd just call the flop and fold the turn UI - small pot and usually a bet into a PF raiser means he has some weak made hand like a PP 66+ or Ax where x paired since he's not that aggressive.
