K9 with flopped trips
I limped in EP with K9s because it was a very LP table with little preflop raising. How did I play it from the flop on?
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) converter SB ($108.6) BB ($15.6) UTG ($33.9) Hero ($47.95) UTG+2 ($20.65) MP1 ($82.05) MP2 ($23.75) MP3 ($27.25) CO ($69.7) Button ($30.05) Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25. UTG calls $0.50, Hero calls $0.50, UTG+2 calls $0.50, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, SB (poster) completes, BB checks. Flop: ($2.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $0.5</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $3</font>, UTG+2 folds, SB folds, BB folds, UTG calls $2.50. Turn: ($8.50) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $5</font>, UTG calls $5. River: ($18.50) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $10</font>, UTG folds. Final Pot: $28.50 |

Re: K9 with flopped trips
wtf could Villain have had? Maybe a little less on the river? You might get a call from QJ. I like it though.

Re: K9 with flopped trips
Fold pre-flop. Especially from UTG+1. After that you played it fine, but yeah, maybe bet a little less on the river.

wtf could Villain have had? [/ QUOTE ] Dunno. But his VPIP is 66%, so that covers a pretty wide range of hands. I agree with your point that my river bet was a bit big, given that I wanted a call. I'm going to hijack my own thread with another hand. Please let me know how I played this one: Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) converter UTG+1 ($27.3) UTG+2 ($23.45) MP1 ($31.85) Hero ($42.55) MP3 ($28.15) CO ($102.7) Button ($11.3) SB ($34.35) BB ($52.1) UTG ($24.25) Preflop: Hero is MP2 with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25. UTG calls $0.50, UTG+1 calls $0.50, UTG+2 calls $0.50, MP1 calls $0.50, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $4</font>, MP3 calls $4, CO calls $4, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, Hero calls $7.30, MP3 calls $7.30, CO calls $7.30. Flop: ($36.65) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> Hero checks, MP3 checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets $5</font>, Hero calls $5, MP3 folds. Turn: ($46.65) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> CO folds (after Hero moves all-in -- don't know why the converter missed this) River: ($46.65) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Final Pot: $46.65 (actually $81.35) On the flop, I actually forgot that the PF reraiser was already all-in. Otherwise, I would have bet out. On the turn, I tried to make up for my mistake by representing it as a slowplay, in the hope that CO would fold TP if that's all he had. |

Re: K9 with flopped trips
The preflop action is all messed up, but I don't think I will like it when I can figure out what it is. Too big an initial raise, and I think you got re-raised and called with short stacks which is not good.

I raised to $4, got 2 callers behind me plus an $11.30 all-in. The original limpers all folded. I and the other 2 players behind me called the raise to $11.30. (When I only called, I expected to end up heads-up with the reraiser, and was surprised when those who called my initial raise called the reraise. Should I have moved in instead? Should I have folded?) I'm a newbie to NL, so I made the initial big raise because I had read in response to a post I made a couple of days ago that 4xBB + 1BB/limper was a good PF raise size at these limits when holding a big PP. (I'm assuming I remembered this correctly, but can't guarantee it.) I had been criticized for just raising $2 holding AA with 2 or 3 limpers in front of me. |

Re: K9 with flopped trips
Ah....ok. 4xBB+1BB per limper is fine. But that should be your raise all the time, not just when you have big pairs. Personally, I think it is a little big, so I take a BB or two off that (i.e. I raise the pot) but that is fine. Then I didn't realise you got re-raised by a short stack. But yes, that seems to be a push or fold situation. I would probably just push. Try to convince someone with KQ, AQ to fold.
