I'd raise on the flop. It's unlikely that he'd come out betting after flopping the flush or straight.Probably raise to about $1k.

how's everyone doing these days?????????????
Nightwolf replied to steve7stud's topic in General Poker Forum
I've had a pretty good run for the month of December, made a profit of about $4g.However, I feel like my game is limited because the only thing I am consistantly successful in are SnGs. I can't come out ahead in a ring game to save my life. I learned how to play tournament poker, which just doesn't translate well into a cash game. I feel like I'm losing a lot of potential cash by not being able to beat ring games. -
You're supposed to go bust here 99.9% of the time.

He doesn't want him to fold, he's hoping for a coin flip for a quick double up. Someone making that play usually has AK or a medium pocket pair. I'd call it.

a conservative flop play

That's true, but you're still 65% to win that hand if he does decide to push. 70% considering the other guy was on a flush draw as well, even though you wouldn't know that at the time.I'm more of a tournament player then cash table though. -

I don't see two hearts on that board. Personally I don't like the call on the flop after it was bet, especially if there is a flush draw with two other people in the hand. And you probably lost money by not raising the flop. If the BB had K 5 and bet $25, a raise to $75ish would probably price him in and cost him more to see the turn.Then if the turn comes blank, I would pot it. -
I only play on BoDog. The players there are absolutely terrible, which means you'll take some awful bad beats, but in the end you'll make money.And the players don't get any better the higher up in stakes you move. I notice little difference between play at the $5 SnG and the $200.Generally I'll play the $100-200 SnG, and you'll see the same players there consistantly. I can only think of a select few who actually play well. I'll see the same players going out 6-10th every game.Keep in mind, BoDog is first and formost a sports betting website. You'll see mostly gamblers who watched poker

I don't understand the preflop play. The blinds are only 10/20, and Villian doesn't have a huge chip lead over you. Why not just call into the 60 raise and then decide the play on the flop? This is why I consider the preflop play bad. What would that reraise this early in the game accomplish, except leading to a harder decision for more chips then necessary? Had he simply called in, he may not have gone broke on this hand.

Usually I find some days I'm hot, other days I'm ice cold. The best thing is to just stop playing when you're having a bad day, and start fresh tomorrow. When you keep playing to reverse the damage done on a bad day, it usually just costs you money. That's a lesson that cost me a lot of cash before I finally learned it.If you've been successful for the past few months, I'd just write it off as a bad day.

Sorry, I don't remember the exact stacks. Villian was probably about $1k, and I was sitting at about $1500.One guy said he folded pocket Ts, and the Villian admitted that he did make a move once he missed the flush. I figured there was too much out that would beat me to call his river bet.It was a good play on his part. And you're right, I felt I underbet the flop. I'm still learning Omaha.

Good point, anyone else have some insight?

Sorry, I don't have a hand converter.BoDog $5/10 Omaha HiHero: Q 8 6 9 Villian raises to $30, 6 callers.$210 in the pot.Flop: 7 6 5 :spade:Action checks around to me, and I raise $75.It folds around to the original raiser, Villian, who calls. He's a pretty aggressive player, but nothing too outragous.Turn: 2 I pot it for $360, and he calls.River: 9 Really ugly card. I check, he moves all in for $765. I thought he might have missed his flush draw, but that 9 could easily have busted my straight.Call or Fold?

I'd be worried too having only a T kicker, but everyone keep in mind, this is a $10 SnG.Pretty much any player at these stakes is going all in with Ax. Maybe I'm just used to all the terrible play on the internet, but without a preflop raise from the original caller, usually the T kicker is good.Playing higher stakes or a cash table, I could definetly see folding here.

That's one of the problems with AT, it can easily turn into a trap hand like it was here.His reraises basically screamed he was on the A with you, but with him just limping in, it would be difficult to put him on a strong kicker. With the way people normally play in $10 SnGs, you could just as easily expect him to have A2.
