party 100 nl 6 max

Hero $150
Button $110

Hero dealt J 7 in the CO

Hero opens for $3.5, Button calls

Flop (2 players, $7)

8 9 10

Hero bets 2, Button raises to 106 (all in), Hero?


I got a buddy that always wants me to make a weak lead when I flop big. "It gets raised everytime". I sure got raised this time....

edit: that was number 500 for me, an accomplishment for me, a routine week for a lot of you. Only took me about 20 months to get it done.

hmm, thought that might be coming

just checking, i didn't think the hand was as trivial as you thought it was when i first posted it.

[BDPoolie]

If he outdrew or outdraws me, then congratulations to him, but I'm calling here.

No seriously, I misread the "Hero?" part and didn't think there was any question.

I don't think this is tough, this is a pretty straightforward call. Not only are you ahead probably 75-80% of the time, you have 12% at the chop if he has the stone cold nuts.

I go broke here every time.

He could be playing smash strat.

He could be playing smash strat.

If that's the case you call unless your initials are DN.

Hands he might do this with:

67: crushed
KK: crushed
2-pair: 4:1
set: 3:2
flush draw: 2:1
sf draw: 3:2
QQ: 4:1
Jc 7c: 1:2
JQ: 1:9

I think we have to feel we're ahead a lot more than half the time to call, but I feel comfortable saying that. Call.

If that's the case you call unless your initials are DN.

OK, I fold then I guess.

[semaj550]

haha...what a coincidence. It's not so much the initials as our host's unfortunate propensity to flop a straight and lose to a boat or quads.

[hotbacon]

Weak leading is dumb here.
There are so many draws and peices of the flop that hit to call, you have to be betting at least 3/4 the pot here. Weak leads aren't "always" raised or even raised that much more often than psb's.

And super easy call of the push...

[No_Neck]

smells like a set to me. Call and lose, then throw laptop.....repeat.

[mkeller3086]

Button shows A 5 for the flush draw.........

[simo_8ball]

Button shows A 5 for the flush draw.........

.......and hits?

[TeeSludge]

easycall.

if you don't call an all-in on this flop then just fold J7s pf.

[mkeller3086]

.......and hits?

nope, i got "lucky" and won this pot.
