DonkSlayer 1 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Bodog .50/$1 100max NLWe're playing with the Button, who holds :D No read on the BB, super quiet for 2 rotations. The EP has been at the table about 3 rotations, has been relatively quiet and in-line. On second rotation, EP limped in with 99 after a few early limpers, flopped a set on an A-high rainbow board (7 players saw the flop), and bet 75% of the pot on the flop and turn, showing the set on the turn after everyone else folded. Hand:UTG limps, EP ($79) limps in UTG+2, MP calls, button ($110) calls with :D , Sb completes, BB ($101) checks.Flop :) Checks to EP who bets $3. Button calls. BB minraises to $6. EP calls $3. Button raises to $15. BB folds. EP pushes allin for $73 total.Can we get away from this hand? Link to post Share on other sites
pokerfan1080 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 EP pushes following a check raise AND a re-raise. If he's not strong he's a donk, but based on your read of EP, that doesn't seem to be the case.I'd have to fold. Link to post Share on other sites
trystero 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Call, he could be doing this with a set or a big draw. That he flatcalls the BB's raise shouldn't be too worrisome - he could want to continue drawing without putting his whole stack in, but once you make it $15 more he figures to put it all in.Besides, we've got a backdoor straight flush draw!

No_Neck 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 there is no way that folding could make more money than calling long term.He easily could have top set here, or two pair or one pair for that matter... Link to post Share on other sites
Mattnxtc 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Id really put ep on A x. i think you have to call but this is a bad spot to be in Link to post Share on other sites

The only way to price you off the flush draw is to push. My 2nd choice is he's holding As 6o or Qo and you have 2 of his outs and a made hand. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 You do realize that just going ahead and raising the flop in the first place is a good move, right? Link to post Share on other sites
DonkSlayer 1 Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 You do realize that just going ahead and raising the flop in the first place is a good move, right?Yeah, he might've gotten away from it then..if I had decided to raise with the that I held as the EP right on the flop.

myenemy 0 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Yeah, he might've gotten away from it then..if I had decided to raise with the that I held as the EP right on the flop.Tricky, tricky.... yeah after he raises to $15, I like the push.

DonkSlayer 1 Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 Tricky, tricky.... yeah after he raises to $15, I like the push. Was this a brag post in disguise?Not really...was trying to convince myself that I could've gotten away from it, had I held his hand. I would've raised the EP's flop bet had I had the 89 of spades...and given some specific action I might've gotten rid of it on Stars or FullTilt....but I think not on Bodog. This is my first time playing a lot on Bodog. You have to have some serious non-tilt cajones with this site when you do take a beat....I've made several pot-sized bets on the flop playing 100max NL and have been called with flush draws only.

simo_8ball 1 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I've made several pot-sized bets on the flop playing 100max NL and have been called with flush draws only.This is the one area I have identified in my game where I am completely spewing chips. When I lose concentration I see implied odds that simply don't exist. I routinely call pot on the turn with a flush draw when the guy is betting half his stack. I call pot on a flop with middle or bottom pair to hit my 5 outer. That and too many pointless river calls ("do you have AA, or KK? Oh, it's KK this time. Cool. GG. IGHN.")I don't know how I make money from this game. Link to post Share on other sites
Scott3705 0 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 i can say, having read replies, I am pretty sure I can get away from all this goofy action with 89. Link to post Share on other sites

EP only has 79 BBs. Link to post Share on other sites
