Full Version: easy lay down?

Played tired and therefore poorly last night. Hands like this I wasn't sharp enough to know the right line, so I'm looking back this morning. The table is loose, but no reads on specific players.


PokerStars 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with [As], [Ad].
UTG calls, 2 folds, BB calls, UTG calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.

Flop: (12.40 SB) [5h], [Kd], [8d] (6 players)
BB checks, UTG bets, MP2 calls, Hero calls, CO calls, UTG calls $0.25 (All-In).

Turn: (16.20 BB) [6h] (5 players, 1 all-in)
MP1 bets, MP2 calls,

Hero ...


Easy lay down? Should I have laid down on calling 2 more on the flop? I think I'm okay calling that with an overpair+ BD flush. I am trying to shake out "weak" play, but I'm clearly behind on the turn here, right?

have you ever added any substance or a train of thought to any of your posts? Or do you just like to go around to all the forums and "Limit holdem sucks" because you can't hack it? seriously add some thought or a worthwhile comment once in awhile and think a little before you post.

am i missing something here?? Why the fold? He already called 2bets I would say that at least there is probably two flush draws and a set of kings is my guess, but with two bets already called why not try to draw to your 1 outer. Maybe that's a fishy call but I would still do it. In all honesty I would've folded the turn but if you call 2 you gotta call one more.

AM I WRONG (big lebowski quote for those who missed it)

First, on the Turn, I only had called 1 bet. So its opposite to your last line. I called 1 needing to call 2 more. If I'm behind, what card I am I looking for that can help me? What it my one out? The Ac? Or the board pairing may counterfeit a K 8 or something weird and the Ah may not make someone a flush. But even with all that, there is a chance I'm drawing dead to 7 9 or 7 4. With ~12.5 to 1, odds, I still don't think its enough with MP1 3-betting in front of me and the CO left to act behind me.

Without reads, I fold that turn after MP1's call/cap move on the flop. That screams set.

But if MP1 is a total donk, I raise that turn in a nanosecond unless CO is a good player.

At .25/.50, your aces might still be good here.

I'd have to let go on the turn to the first bet, or even after calling the first one. There's a good chance at this limit that CO will cap, and you'll suddenly find yourself 4 BB lighter thanks to that one street....not to mention all you will have to put down on the river.
