flush draw, gets resistance in turn

[therockofgibraltar]

I don't even remember the last time I had a flush. Draws, draws and draws but no fill!

I might be on a tilt when it comes to flushes right now. Because I think that now is the time when I actually hit it! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] But no no..

Did I play this one like a jerk?

I would not call with this hand UTG.

Anyways, post flop, you have a good 14 outs for this hand, so I can see calling the flop, but I'm not sure about that turn.

That's besides the point...POSITION POSITION POSITION!

Looks good.

Limping A2s UTG is standard at this limit. So is limping 22. The better players here will consider limping J9s UTG if the table is good. If you're ever at a table where limping A2s and 22 is not OK, leave and find another.

I think you played this hand fine. Calling on the flop is good because even though your draw is stronger than a typical flush draw, you'd still rather not get it HU. Turn you don't have an equity edge, but with 2 outs to the house and 8 more to the flush, you're calling any and all bets.

I might limp with this in a loose game (as yours seems to be), but I normally fold this UTG. I'm tempted to raise this flop. That way I'm more likely to win if I catch an A (just reread this section in SSHE, or is this a misapplication?).

&lt;/GRUNCHING&gt;

[MrWookie47]

There's no way in hell AQ is folding here, and you already beat A3. Your A outs are as cleas as they can possibly be. I say call and build a bigger pot because you don't have the equity to go HU. On the other hand, if the table is so passive that they'll all call 2 bets anyway, go ahead and raise, but that's only good against the very worst set of opponents.

Nicely played. I play it exactly the same.

A6s is an easy limp from UTG.

I think you can call this hand pretty safely UTG, especially on a table where others will follow into the pot.

Even after the raisers, I think there are enough outs to call two cold with that pot. Am I missing something?

[KaiShin]

This is fine.

Nice hand. Keep raking in those Sklansky Bucks.
