88 - 3 Way Flop W/a Gutshot


Recommended Posts

No reads here. Been multi-tabling for the last few hours. Three way flop with 88 and I pick up a gutshot on a 9 high flop, two spades. SB checks, middle player bets and I pull the old check-raise, which was my decision as soon as the flop came out. Get called on the flop and the possible spade flush completes. I lead for less than half the pot which screeeems bluff me. That's the street that I'm a little lost on.

I bet about $6-7 on the turn. If villain shoves, I probably fold. If villain calls, I'd probably c/f the river if a spade hit, or I didn't improve my hand, or in the case of this particular river c/c.Also, if you're going to c/r the flop raise it more. Villain only has to call $2.25 into an $8.35 pot.

Well, you have to bet this river now that you got there. You can really check/call because he's never going to bet anything but straights and flushes, but he might call with two pair or top pair or something stupid like that.I agree with raising and betting more on every street though.

Good point about the flop bet. What about the bet on the river. Was going for the value-bet line. Of course I'm not sure how well that works with the possible flush draw out there.

I was kind of undecided about the river, but your line is probably better.I think making bigger bets/raises on the flop and turn makes our decision a lot easier though.
