Default Re: (55) overpair in 50-way pot

The problem with raising to t45 is that the pot is actually too small on the flop and it's harder to stack somebody. Given the hands I'm raising with and my opponents' tendencies to suck and give away chips with lower kickers etc., that's a real issue.

If you were going for uncontested, smaller pots taken down on the flop, it would work better. That might be the case in the 215's now, I'm not sure.

As is often the case, adanthar has it spot on.

People DO still suck, very much, at both $55 and $109 level for giving away their chips like that. I know many of you who haven't played especially the $109s can't believe that to be true, but it is.

At the $215s it is very possible a t45 raise is better. I really don't know, as I've never played there.
