Can you elaborate why this is an autofold? Is this not a good hand for a high scoop? 3 broadway cards, a pair and doublesuited...

Except that he flopped the nut straight and is asking for advice postflop. So therefore the discussion is necessary. He's not asking how to play perfect O/8, just how to play in the situation he got himself into.

Do we want to build the pot even though we'll only have the best hand on the river 40-50% of the time? Does the fact that there are 3 players still mean we should build the pot or no?

You dont need 50% equity against multiple oppnents, you just need to win more than the share of the money you are putting in.

You gain much more info by raising here. You have the best hand, you have one blocking card to a boat.

If the betting gets capped here and someone still leads out when the board pairs or the flush hits, then you fold.

Please don't most any more until your testicles grow back.

The above is terrible advice in limit. Play this hand, just play it well post-flop.

You cant let this one go, atleast for 6-max.

God I screw up even my attempts at minimally humorous insults.

To those advocating playing this hand, even given the PF raise. Would you suggest raising with it if not for the raise in front of him?

At a 6max table I would call the raise pre, not raise pre if no raise before, bet/raise the flop and fold to any action after the board pairs.

All I can say is that Nick_Foxx fellow played perfectly

Clayton - I'd rather play this starting hand, AJQQd, to a single bet than a double bet - but I'd call the raise pre-flop.

But then when you flop the Broadway, I think you should pop it.

I cringed when I read that you just called the 2nd round bet. I think you have to do your best to take the pot here or make it expensive for your opponents to draw out on you.

And then if you did that, maybe the rest of the hand would have played differently. In other words, maybe poway phil would have folded to a double bet after the flop.

The way you played it, you're stuck chasing if the board either flushes or pairs. Forcing poway phil to confront a double bet instead of a single bet might not have mattered - but maybe it would have.

I think you have to seize the opportunity to put poway phil (and the others) to the test on the second betting round.

Just my opinion.
