And you didn't convert the hand, you can use sites such as http://www.feralcowp...y-converter.php in the future.You also provided no context, statistics or reads.So 1, I would fold pre. We have 2 shorter stacks behind us and from MP I would prefer folding SCs until we get to 89s+ I'd open 67s in the CO, sometimes in the HJ and rarely in MP/CO-2Then, on the turn I am folding to the c.rThe flop c.c and turn c.r is classic lolstrong hand from a weak player (which I assume villain is in a $5 MTT.There is certainly an argument that maybe he's the type of weak player who will over value TT or pair+draw or is just spewing, but for the most part you will see a set or straight here.I'd also bet the flop waaaaaay larger, we are 6 ways on a board that has a lot of straight draws and we have 2-pair, let's get a lot of money in. It already looks strong when we c-bet in a 5-way pot, so let's get lots of value from pair + drawsI stand by the fold pre. I doubt you will be profitable long term with 67s from the CO -2 (MP)I just checked my database (for 6max cash games as I don't have a lot of MTT or FR hands) and I only open 67s from CO -2 18% of the time. I would only open it if there was a mega fish in the blinds will pay off when I make a hand or if a table was super tight and I could steal blinds and barrel nits.So readless and such, I'm passing pre.

Thanks for the in-detail reply, i agree with basically everything you said which is good i guess , was a bit loosy goosy...didnt have too many reads on the players although it was a tight(ish) table.I know nothing about converting hands or anything like that so cheers for the info. I shall use your way of thinking in future i think - happier with the fold now than i was at the time, really didnt like to fold. Definitely bet the turn in that spot all the time? Or maybe check back for some pot control and a cheaper showdown..also got chance to fill up. Thought about that side of things after the hand too.Cheers

I'd bet the turn close to 100% of the time.There is waaaaay too much value in a villain calling with a pair+draw or just pair or just draw. We can bet expecting to get called by worse a ton and when we do get c.r'd we don't have to worry about it being a bluff or semi-bluff very often. I mean, not many $5 MTT players are c.r the turn with 89 in my opinionglgl

stack too shallow to b/f?Think he c.r enough worse hands for value or some bluffs?

[donk4life]

There's too much money in the pot to fold that turn, guy could be doing it with pairs, pairs+str8 draws, pairs+ flush draws. We have two pair and we're going to fold to the most innocuous turn card?

I just feel like when you c-bet the 5way pot and they c.c, crai turn they have a set or a straightI like your use of the word innocuousI guess we call it off and see what's up; ISAP and should likely preface all posts with that tho

[babylondonks]

I miss you James.I don't exactly hate the b/f on the turn to be honest, but we are getting a ridiculous price. I'd prefer it with top two

[TrueAce13]

why bet that much on the turn if we are folding?

You miss the nittiness?Yeah, top two would be much better.Any of you guys have thoughts on the open in MP2/CO-2?

[babylondonks]

shortest stack seems to be 30 blinds? I don't absolutely hate it, but I'd need a lot more info

[donk4life]

Yeah right babs, you don't need more info. You're opening that hand from UTG

i didn't say he was r/fing that from UTG!

[babylondonks]

I think I'd be raising that from UTG, look at our hand, and our equity edge when we can outplay them postflop

[daveharvey]

if you raise with 6/7 n flop that - be prepared to go all the wayreally you have to go all the way with that holding
