Borderline preflop call.


Everything else is standard. You're way ahead more often than you are behind here, and still have nine outs in the worst case scenario (MP2 has TT or 99).

im drawing dead to TT.

But I think I agree that I think im ahead alot.

Let's see, he raised preflop, so 2s and 4s aren't possible unless you have the retards at 5/10 that i have at .5/1 -- TT and 99 are the only hands that have you beat, and those are very unlikely. I'd be ramming and jamming the pot myself. Would probably jam the river as well, depending on the card.

I'm trying to think of hands that would raise preflop, check/call that flop, then check/raise that turn. I really can't think of any. KdQd perhaps?

oops. Yeah.

EDIT: That makes this an easy 3-bet, then.

Did you see a river? Curious what it was.
wrto4556
He called and check/called a K icon_suit_spade.gif river and I dragged the pot.

It is borderline, but I think it's pretty easy. There are at least 3 other people going to see the flop and upto 4 or 5 other people. If you hit your hand big (almost required to continue aggressively) your hand plays very well against a large field as you will have at least two pair or in this case top pair good kicker and a flush draw on the flop. The payoff is great and for when you do make your hand and it's easy to get away from if you don't.

After deciding to call preflop, the play was standard. It's an easy 3-bet on the turn because at worst you have 9 outs if you do happen to be behind and most likely your opponent has somewhere between 2 outs (under pair) to 13 outs (J icon_suit_diamond.gif Q icon_suit_diamond.gif or 8 icon_suit_diamond.gif J icon_suit_diamond.gif .) So if you're ahead you are at worst a 2.5:1 favorite.

Or paired his ten on the turn with A10 or something.. the three bet on the turn is a no brainer.. if he can beat two pair, and a flush draw, god bless him....
