Interesting Hand, 2 pair vs single suited flop
I ran into this hand a few days ago and wondered what others would do in this situation. i.e. the play was obvious to me at the time, but what do I know!
I have no specific read on any of the players, but in general I have found that most of the players at Golden Palace are very loose i.e. they will limp with many hands, especially any 2 suited. They will call with almost anything, but will only bet and/or raise with a real hand. Playing 1/2 at Golden Palace I limp in on the button with QTo, after 2 early position players limp. The SB completes and the BB checks. (4.75sb) The Flop comes Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] I have top 2 pair which is good, but this is a very coordinated board. Possible made straight, possible made flush and even a possible straight flush, and with 4 opponents, lots of re-draws. The SB and BB both check, first early positiion bets, next early position raises. There are now 7.75 sb in the pot, and I must call 2 to stay, so pot odds of less than 3.5 to one. I may be drawing dead, and there are 2 players still to act. What is my play here |

Re: Interesting Hand, 2 pair vs single suited flop
I can't decide between calling and rasing...but i'd be raising. You want to get single [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] to fold. It's also worth the implied odds if you hit the Q or T (6 outs) against a flush.
Anyone else call or raise? |

Some of the flush draws could be betting on the draw.. Also, isn't it 4 outs to hit the Q or T? |
