tuckermitchell 1 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Am I a complete fish here? Please help as I want to get into a new game as holdem is getting old. This a $5 SNG on bodog, couldn't find a converter so I am typing it out. Did I donk this one up, or was it just bad luck?I'm in small blind with A 8 2 Q . 6 people see the flop by calling the BB including both blinds. pot $60Flop is J 5 7 I check the current nuts, two more checks, raise of $45, one call, I call and the other 3 original players fold. Three to the turn. Pot $195Turn is K , I check, villian 1 checks, villian 2 bets 100.00, two calls.Three to River. Pot $495.00River is K I bet out 155, villian 1 raises to 400, villian 2 calls, and so do I putting me allin.Showdown, Villian 1 shows Full house, K K K J J Villian 2 shows a setI show Nut Flush. Where did I do this wrong, I am obviously thinking in a holdem mentality where I let aggressive players bet into me when holding the nuts, but obviously he outdrew me. I am thinking I should have pushed the turn to represent a Flush Draw??? Please help so that I can get better and win here. Thanks in advance for the flames, I know they are coming.

crazytim 0 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Rule #1 of slowplaying is that you have to be able to muck if you know you are beat. A bet, raise, call in front of you. Someone has a full house and it's guarenteed to be the caller. Easy muck. Second point: There are times to slowplay and time to not. Early in a tournament is definitely not one of these. You don't know the players at the table well enough for this to be profitable. On top of that it's a limped pot, where any schmuck with 4 cards in their hand could have made 2 pair. You might check raise on the flop, but either way, you're going to charge these fools for their draws. Link to post Share on other sites
....Ian.... 0 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 you shoulda pot it on every street.now seeing that they got some tool bags in there that are willing to bet without the nuts you shoulda check raised all in on the flop or turn (where you could price em out). but this isnt necessarily omptimal.POT POT POT.......not the green kind."pot limit omaha is not a free card game.....people who give free cards in (plo) tournaments are just asking to get slaughtered" (verbatim) TJ Cloutier Link to post Share on other sites
