Yeah, I'm 12 tabling the 430's now, let me take a crack [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

This turn card - no brainer IMO. Absolutely perfect card (OPFr is not checking behind on a FD+SD flop w/ an overpair)

Can I assume...

- you were looking to c/r the flop as well? Obviously a better than expected flop. Enough here to c-r, or were you in c-c/f mode?

- you were c/f'ing an overcard on the turn, facing a similar lead? Or were you planning to c/r regardless of this turn, thinking you could sell a made flop hand that failed on the c/r attempt?

What makes you certain Button(loose player) didnt limp with a8s, 89 87 k8s, e.t.c

I would fold pf, but I suppose that calling isn't bad.

On the turn I would lead out to keep from giving another free card.

Loose, but not out of line. The type of loose that would probably bet middle pair on the button when checked to.

And yes, I was looking to c-raise the flop. I usually fold this, but there were a few compelling reasons to call pf.

I'd be tempted to make that play no matter what my two cards were, as long as I feel I can put enough pressure on the button to fold a draw. If MP1 is any kind of player, you can reason that there is no way he matched that flop. Even if he had 99, he would know better than to give a free card most likely. So the strongest hand he could have is a high pocket pair (which is also unlikely, for the same reason as 99 is unlikely), which is extremely scary and extremely fold-able with that flop and betting action to him.
