I think now it was a bad fold.. I put original flop better on any pair, based on a read I had watching him play a few hands so far in the tourney (loose read, but a read nonetheless)

Not much of a read on other Opponent, but raising preflop, and no chance to C/B, he raises 3X flop betters raise, I put him on AJ, A10 1010 JJ QQ KK AA, AK/AQ/AJ clubs


Should I draw to the straight here?

No. You are not closing the action.


Also, you do not know whether a K or Q will help you, or whether a 9 or A of clubs will help you.

But more importantly SB is alive behind you.

stacks aren't deep enough for you to be able to absorb the times when SB moves in.

pushing would be better than calling.

folding better than both

QFT.

I wouldn't be in the hand in the first place though.

really?

I definitly see the flop.

QFTx2 Folding > Pushing > Calling.

Completely disagree with bold.

Folding KQs here on the button PF for that small percentage of our stack would be pretty weak/tight..3x raises at this blind level dont display a ton of strength imo..

But yea Beav, folding here was the right play

Facing a bet and a raise, your open-ended straight draw (with backdoor flush draw) would be a silly call IMO. Some of your outs are probably taken by your opponents as well. If you do decide to play, you should push to maximize fold equity, and get to see all five cards. Easy fold for me.

I went with the majority opinion here...

Results.


Both donks were craaaaaaaazy pushing their TPTK... and both made two pair on the turn....

lol.

Looking back, I'm OK with my move, and I believe I AT LEAST ended up cashing.

Deeper stacks it might be a push (and by deeper, I mean add a 0 to the end of everyone's stack size)...

but I fold here every day and twice on Sunday (unless I'm against tighties that I KNOW will fold tp)


two of your straight outs provide a flush.
two of your overcard outs provide a flush.
Any one of your overcard outs complete a straight.

And a couple of your ace outs could be in your opponents' hands.

Your 5 options are

Fold
Fold
Fold
Push
Fold

Call is about 12th here.
