Flopped the nut and never raised, something has to be wrong here.
UB 10/20 6 players
UTG limps, I have JTs and limp, 2 folds, sb calls, bb checks. Flop: 987 r Check, bet, raise, I coldcall, and its 4 to the turn for 2 bets each. Turn: 2 giving me a flush draw Check, check, bet, I call, and both blinds call. River: 2 Check, check, bet, I call, SB folds, BB calls. Which if any of the streets should I have raised? |

I'd probably raise the turn, given your line, however, the river is probably a call to induce overcalls..

Depending on what you've seen the blinds do, I don't think this is terrible. After the turn you gave sets the chance to beat you, but it's not like you could fold them anyway.

I would've raised the turn. You're hand is still vulnerable.

Raise the turn and charge them. The biggest problem with slowplaying the nuts is that someone else may think that he has the nuts. If UTG had 98 or 77, you may have gotten it capped on the turn. And what if someone has J9? Do you really want to give him a reduced price on sucking out on you if the T comes on the river?

Re: Flopped the nut and never raised, something has to be wrong here.
Charging draws is not +EV in and of itself if their (potential) calls are correct. When nobody folds a better hand/draw, all that matters is how much you stand to be paid off. Rereading the history I think raising the turn is correct -- UTG has popped every street and could throw a lot of money your way (maybe even bringing the calling stations along) -- but not because he needs to "charge" anybody.
Put another way, this line is no more or less correct whether they are drawing completely dead or they have 15 collective outs: once people are committed to the pot, all that matters is [his share of] the equity getting put in the middle. If we had the X% of the time the blinds would call two cold and the Y% of the time UTG would 3-bet, we could calculate the correct play -- though not the exact EV -- without needing to know precisely how much danger the nut straight was in with one card to come. |

Re: Flopped the nut and never raised, something has to be wrong here.
Their calls may be right due to pot size, however, effective odds wise, they are losing with every additional bet that goes in the pot. Unless there are enough players in to make it +EV to jam a draw. Which isn't the case here.
Whichever way you want to put it, he should raise the turn. Also, if a draw correctly puts you on the nuts, you can't 'charge' them once they miss. b |

Value and a freeroll, plus the potential that the river card could slow you down. If the blinds fold they had little river value to you anyway, and if they have open-enders they're unlikely to fold. Now when they're drawing dead is when you truly charge them for sucking out in other scenarios. Moreover their calls are NOT T.O.P. correct unless they have a set or top flush draw. In brief: something WAS wrong. Raise! |

Re: Flopped the nut and never raised, something has to be wrong here.
I like 3-betting the flop. You're going to get action, and you really don't mind a jack, or even better, QJ folding. Single tens are coming along anyways, and, even better, it might look to some of your less-trusting opponents like you are trying for a free card. After all, who 3-bets the made straight? Everybody slowplays it, right?
Given that you called, raise the turn. You're not going to lose the straight draws, and you might be freerolling another JT, or be against 65, and cap the turn. Since you didn't do any of these, raise the river. You're frequently going to lose the callers as they missed their 4-card straight draw anyways. Take the sure bet from the bettor. Fearing that he has a fullhouse is silly. my 2 cents. Eric |
