LJB723 0 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 CryptologicNo Limit Holdem Ring gameBlinds: $0.03/$0.064 playersConverterStack sizes:UTG: $5.33Hero: $18.36SB: $5.76BB: $2.76Pre-flop: (4 players) Hero is Button with T K UTG calls, Hero raises to $0.24, 2 folds, UTG calls.Flop: 5 T 3 ($0.57, 2 players)UTG checks, Hero bets $0.3, UTG raises to $0.6, Hero calls.Turn: 4 ($1.77, 2 players)UTG bets $1.74, Hero ? EDIT: Title is wrong, this obviously isn't an overbet. I don't know why I thought he did, must have been looking at another hand.UTG has it in for me after I went runner-runner to catch a fullhouse vs his flopped straight. So could be tilting, I've raised almost every button after limpers. So raise/call/fold? Link to post Share on other sites
Citizen Erased 0 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I don't think he's tilting, but you'll know more on that than me.I hate putting people on sets, but this looks like one to me with the PF limp, and stupid Check/Min-Raise. Even if it's not a set, we only have one pair. It may be good, but I don't like taking the risk.Personally, I'd raise that Min-Raise up to around $1.5, or fold. By calling, you're leaving yourself to be stumped when he fires the turn. Link to post Share on other sites
Cappy37 0 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 If you've made a habit of popping limpers, it wouldn't be out of line to see Villain show up with JJ+ here, too.. He doesn't need a set to be ahead of TPTK.I'd go into defensive mode: He's either bluffing/valuebetting weaker than TPTK, or he's got your nuts in a vice and absolutely crushing TPTK.If he's prone to show just as much machsimo as you when he's holding air, flat-calling turn and calling river is not a bad line, and serves two purposes: we lose minimum to reach showdown against something that beats us, or we get the maximum amount he could put into our chipstack with a weak holding. Given the situation, your hand is a bluff-catcher, and you've somehow managed to under-rep TPTK here. Go with that line of thinking, and catch his bluff/lose minimum here.Think of it this way: a raise defines nothing here: he's either got us killed or has a hand he can only bet w/ and not call. So we'll either win the absolute minimum, fold to a bluff re-raise, or pay the max to find out he slow-played a monster PF or a flopped set. His re-raise doesn't tell you he's got you beat, it tells you he either has you beat or can't just call. Link to post Share on other sites
Dictius 0 Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 If you call the turn, the villain will be shoving the rest of his stack on the river a lot of the time. This is about $2.5 into about $5 pot. So if you are planning on calling the turn you have to call the river also or you should just fold to the turn bet.Since I don't want to play for stacks with this hand, I think I just fold the turn.It guess it really depends how much this guy is after you. If he has been giving you shit in the chat and playing pretty crazy against you then I might call. Link to post Share on other sites
