Four handed, a family pot goes crazy...
My first hand at the table. We're four-handed. Two limpers, SB calls and I check with K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Family pot.
Flop is K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] SB checks, I bet, first limper calls, second limper raises, SB now check-three-bets and this being my first hand, I have zero idea of what's up. I call two bets, the limper calls two, and the second limper calls one. On to the turn for, oh, 16 SB? Turn is a 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], SB bets and I raise... How am I doing so far? |

I would have raise PF. Postflop looks good so far. Their range of hands is pretty wide, anything from a straight to top pair to a draw. I think you're ahead most of the time, and this raise let's you charge those behind you.

I would have raise PF. [/ QUOTE ] Why? It's your first hand, no reads, and your OOP. |

4 handed i like it. no one draw to their OESD for free in this house. i like not capping the flop here because it induces action from sb so you can raise to thin and worsen a draws odds.

Re: Four handed, a family pot goes crazy...
I think most players who flop a straight on this board would be waiting until the turn to raise - especially in an unraised pot. The worst hand I see out there that's beating you is TT - unless these guys are really passive and won't raise QQ, KK PF. I think you're more likely looking at pair hands that also have a draw.
I think its risky not capping the flop and trying to get HU. You also might be missing some value by failing to cap. Raising the turn after your flop smooth-call is easy given that the limpers are going to have to make a decision to get stuck in the middle and draw for many bets or fold their draws, which increases your chances of taking down the pot. |

Ok, so no one finds huge fault so far. I don't like a PF raise here, but I see why others might.
2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] SB bet, I raised. First limper folded, second limper three-bet and the SB capped it. Two bets back to me, and I'm getting 8-1. I call. River is a 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] SB checks, I check, third player bets. SB calls and I call. |

Re: Continued...
Are there four players at the table, or four players in the pot? I'm a little confused.

Re: Continued...
Started four-handed. The first limper folds to the turn raise. Pot ends three-handed. Only four players at the table.
