Quicky Preflop

MAxx · #1 07-02-2005, 09:15 AM

SB is 19/12 and BB is 40/7..... so I think its fairly safe to say my T high is behind on my steal attempt. At 5:1 with a suited connector and considering metagame, do you call the BB's cap pf?

1 fold, Hero raises, 1 fold, SB 3-bets, BB caps, Hero.......

Edit: Somebody slap Bison. It's actually 5 handed, so I am in cuttoff.

I fold every offsuit to the cap in this situation except for AK but I would call with any pair. With a suited connector though, you have to feel like your implied odds are pretty immense with a 3-bettor and a capper. That said, I still don't know. I wouldn't worry about the metagame. This situation will come up very rarely and your opponents are probably too excited about their pocket pairs to even notice [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img].

I don't know if its right but I fold here. When you flop a pair or draw you're going to have to see the turn, maybe a river, and quite possibly for multiple bets.

You are 5:1 and 5:1 just happens to be the odds you will flop either an OESD or a flush draw. You will get paid big time if you hit it, you should have a pretty good idea what your opponents hands are and it is unlikely you are dominated. Easy call.

You may flop a flush draw or straight draw but the flop may also get capped. This is going to be close.

IF it is profitable it has HUGE variance, your choice.

Easy call.

It's suited, connected, and pretty to look at. Clear call.

It doesn't see to happen that much. Usually its an easy call b/c it's just one back to me. Thanks guys. It will be an easy call next time.
