Wait for Turn in Huge Pot?
UTG is unknown - he limped in so I assume he's weak.
MP is a bad playing LAG with stats of 49/23/1.3 over 150 hands. I haven't noticed him do anything out of line, and what I have noticed about his play isn't too relevant to this hand (it's about blind steals). SB is a multitabling TAG, possibly 2+2. 20.4/16/2.4 over 4k hands, and most of them are datamined because I avoid him unless he's on my left. BB could be described as a typical 10/20 player: 38/26/2.8 over 4k hands, and not too out of line though very aggressive. The question is, should I wait until the turn to raise in this enormous pot?

Re: Wait for Turn in Huge Pot?
With your position relative to the aggressor I don't see any reason to wait for the turn here. A turn raise doesn't have any hand protection value. You might well as push this for value while everyone is involved. A side benefit is that the SB may c/r off you to reduce the field on the turn.

Re: Wait for Turn in Huge Pot?
I'd raise the flop. TAG caps in a 5-way pot and then leads the flop against 4 opponents. He has JJ/QQ/KK/AA/AK most of the time. If you raise the flop he might call down with JJ/QQ, plus you get the other monkeys donating. If you call the flop then he won't lead QQ on the turn. If he has KK/AA/AK then he will 3-bet the flop and you can just call down. However, if you wait until the turn to raise then he will punish you with KK/AA and you will be forced to call down because the pot will be so big.
So, raise the flop to save you BBs against this player. |

Krishan is wise. Wait to raise a non-club turn for value. No one with a draw is folding in a million years anyway.

Re: Wait for Turn in Huge Pot?
Krishan didn't say to call flop/raise turn. He said that if you did raise the turn, it would be for value, not because you had a chance to wreck someone's odds into a fold.
I like rasing the flop. Plenty of value b/c you probably got people drawing at runner/runner. Also a SB 3-bet lets you know that your hand kind of stinks, so you won't raise the turn when you have basically no outs to AA/KK. |
