Money022 0 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Fairly straight forward hand. Mini-raised pot and I flop the nuts. I make a 3/4 pot sized bet on the flop and everyone calls. Turn is somewhat of a blank as I can't see how it really helped anyone unless they were on a straight draw and picked up a flush draw.So the short stack pushes, next guy folds, and I'm left with a decision. The player behind me has me covered and it's basically a heads up. Do we call here and hope to keep the CO in the hand, or raise to isolate?PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)Hero ($46.25)SB ($67.70)BB ($49.20)UTG ($14.60)MP ($54.40)CO ($58.10)Preflop: Hero is Button with , .

sabes99 0 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 i think i would smooth-call it here...the only hand he could possibly have on the flop is a straight draw of some sort, maybe with a pair...he's not going to call if we shove, but he may call if we just call here Link to post Share on other sites

Money022 0 Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 Flop action is ****ed up.Sorry about that, I fixed it. One of the players had [] in their screen name and it messed with the HH and took out my action. I raised to $3 on the flop and everyone called. Link to post Share on other sites
Naismith 0 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I would call here and take one off. There doesn't seem to be a way you're losing this hand unless he has a combo straight/flush draw that backdoors. If he has a set or two pair, he has played it strangely. Regardless, I'd imagine he shoves behind you on the turn. Link to post Share on other sites

Money022 0 Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 you want everyones action in this hand. take forever and smooth call IMHOThat's precisely what I did. The opponent left to act chose to fold and I took down the flop against the shorty's flopped two pair.I figured this would be a good spot to keep the player behind me in it, but I wasn't 100% certain on this situation. Thanks for the replies. Link to post Share on other sites
