FPS, i guess. I thought SB's cap/check line was wierd and started to play the hand carefully(*laughs at carefully*).EDIT: Fold when the flop gets capped?

[Smasharoo]

I think I'm probably folding to the two cold on the flop cap unless MP is an absolute maniac.With no reads I think I'm looking at JJ somewhere after the cap.

yes, with a few curse words thrown in there too, you made your own bed by not threebetting TPTK, tsk tsk tsk. damn newb

[results oriented thinking] By calling i set myself up for a good fold (although I whiffed). 3-betting would have just gotten me in deep. [/results oriented thinking]

By calling i set myself up for a good fold Lol, yeah, there's that I guess.

Faaaaa Q. :-) I had a feeling the SB had me crushed.

Lol.You're almost certainly behind after the flop is capped. At best, you split. Calling down is fine. I think the SB check raise lets you officially know you're beat.

I think the river call is fine, given everyone else's vagina growing fest on the turn.Maybe the turn call is too much because of the possibility of lots more action before you ever hit the river.Does that sound right?

not really. YOu know that I don't need a rag since I play very aggressive, but that flop cap absolutely sucks donkey nuts. We are being told that TPTK is not good here, so folding the flop is prudent

I wasn't clear enough.I meant to advocate folding the flop without actually saying it (see what I said at "at best, you'll split"...calling down from there isn't very logical, is it 8).I meant calling down once we've reached the turn. Is my thinking correct from there?

If I had AKclubs, then a call might be correct on the turn. But the SB CRs that turn with all of the action that happened PF and on the Flop, do you really think that our hand is good enough to merit calling three BBs with the turn and possible river action taken into acount, I sure don't. I'm folding that turn too

[DCWildcat]

Right as usual, KDawg.

eh, whatever. its not like you were asking dumb questions. Just remember, when calling a=down a hand, you really need to think it through on how much it will fully cost you instead of the immeadite odds. YOu need to think of your full odds for calling down a hand, you will start folding a few more hands and you will save some $$ in the long run
