Q3s, posted from CO, PF call ok? should I have been raising?

RustyCJ · #1 11-05-2005, 02:14 AM

I called the PF raise because there were already 2 cold callers and I figured either the SB or BB would call and possibly both and UTG was in as well. The button 3-betting kinda screwed that idea though.

If UTG+2 had capped PF and it was 2 bets back to me, I likely would've folded, am I wrong to fold there?

I didn't do any raising because others were doing it for me and while in the middle of play I didn't want to force someone to call 2 bets, even though they probably would have, judging by the play.

Is anyone fearful by the way it was played of A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] here? Do I cap the river if I could've raised and were 3-bet?

What are you doing in this hand with Q3? You were willing to call 2SB to hit a miracle flop or a flush draw (which you would not complete the majority of the time anyways?)

Fold preflop.

I had posted from the CO, I only had to call 1 SB to see the flop.

Getting 9.5:1 immediate odds is more than enough to call PF.

The possibility of a flush over flush is ridiculously small, I'd have no problem capping the river.
