I think I'd reluctantly call against unknowns, and lay it down if I respected the overcaller in the least. Tough spot. Also don't think the full pot bet is necessary (250-300 accomplishes the same thing IMO), but that's a minor detail.

Yeah, this is ugly. Could just as easily be top pair with Ace kicker, as it could be a set at these stakes. Yuck. I think I call, but I'm not happy about doing it.

I would fold this.

If there were only one player who pushed, I would reluctantly call. But now there is an overcall/checkraisepush in the mix too.

If when the cards flip over if you're not against a set or a straight (i'd expect to see 77 most of the time, but people call small pocket pairs to raises all the time) then I'd be very surprised.


I fold reluctantly.

I played around 10 of these last night and I was amazed at what players were pushing with. I call here.

I was somewhat worried about a set, but I have seen such bad play I call. if I was at 1500 I would have folded, but had doubled up so called...

I was thinking that one probably had an overpair like 9's and the other was A7

Button had T7o
SB had 44 for the set.

Didnt think a 44 would call that big of a raise pre

I guess you haven't been running into sets that called your pre flop 4xraise with < 66 the last 5 times you've been raised like that on the flop.

It must be nice to run good ... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Dogger that is gross. I figure A7 and also an overpair. I have seen players at this level call any ace for a 3-4x raise. I call and lose also. Guess I have lots to learn.
