J9d on a Turned Straight
Probably the biggest pot I've ever played. Here we go.
Party 100NL, 6-max. Hero is button with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], ~$220 behind. Villain is early position. He is pretty loose pre flop, but not terrible (not that good, either), post flop. Villain has big stack of ~$380. Pre-flop: UTG folds, villain raises to $3, MP calls, Hero calls, sb calls, bb calls. Flop ($15): K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Hero leads for $10, MP folds, Hero calls, sb folds, bb folds. Thinking villain may have flopped two pair here, I only called instead of raised, waiting to see what the turn gave me. Comments on this? Too weak-tight? Turn ($35): T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Villain bets $20, Hero...? |

Re: J9d on a Turned Straight
Alright, I guess I'll get to the interesting part of this hand, since none of you seem to care about the turn action.
Turn ($35): (K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]) Villain bets $20, Hero raises to $65, villain thinks for a while and calls. River ($130): 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Villain open pushes for effectively ~$130, my entire stack. Hero...? What do you think about my line before the river? Really looking for some comments on my line in this hand... |

Re: J9d on a Turned Straight
I think you have the flop action screwy. Nonetheless, I think there are arguments for raising this flop.
Big draw+position+deeper stacks= lets inflate this pot a bit. Plus you can check behind if he checks a blank turn. I can see some benefits for calling too. Prevents 3-bet, position helps. Flop is fine/turn is stnd. I haven't seen river yet. |

[/ QUOTE ] I'm confused by your reply --- you say the turn is standard, are you referring to my turn raise? If you are, then how have you not seen the river yet? The river (5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]) is in the same post. I think you're right about raising the flop though in this case. |

Re: J9d on a Turned Straight
Yes, turn raise is standard.
Would villan bet all the way through with a FD? It looks almost like a set/2 pair on the turn. The river is devastating. I really don't know what I would do, hope some others can fill in thoughts. I would probobly call at the time, but not like it at all. |

Re: J9d on a Turned Straight
I honestly would push this flop after getting raised because you have so many outs against a hand like AA/AK it's not even funny.
Example: Against AA, you have 17 outs. Like against a hand range of AA(overpair)/AK(TPTK) KK/QQ/99 (sets) JT (straight) AdJd/AdTd (straight draw and nut flush draw you have a 47% equity, so even if you have the monsters under the bed syndrome, you should push this flop. If you think you can make villian fold around 5% of the time by pushimg then pushing is the most +EV play. Also, call the river. If he has the nuts, nothing you can do. |

I THINK villan led for $10. So your pushing $200, raising villan 20x his bet? With stacks this deep, I don't think this is the best option. |

At least raise big. Raise to 50. |

Re: J9d on a Turned Straight
hmmm... lets start out at the flop. i raise this flop 100% of the time. my line here is to make a pot sized raise on the flop, and call or fold to the 3bet based on some quick math. i then will call a turn bet if i miss, or push if i hit. if he checks i take a free card or push if i hit. if u raise this flop u dont have any tough decisions.
as played i call the river push. u have 2nd nuts and i cant see any hand w/ the Ad here except maybe AJd. i think we are good here 1 out of 3 times atleast... |
