I know i played this one like a deer caught in headlights.


All my effort was not to scare UTG+1 off the pot because he is a world wide known calling station plus he was probably drawing dead.

flop = standard probably.

probably check/fold turn.

edit: maybe we're getting the odds on the turn if UTG+1 comes along. i agree he's probably drawing dead. i don't think there is N-E THING we can beat on the river.

Probably fold to the turn pot. Calling isn't a huge mistake though. Calling the river is bad, but something I know I would do as well. It's a form of tilt, mixed in with faint hope.



On a sidenote, I check/called a 1/2 pot bet with AKxx on a board of QJTK9 rainbow in a PLO tourney tonight. In a heads up pot. I actually knew I was doing it as well (Villain had QQJT). Whether he would call a raise or not I don't know, but it's a serious mistake anyway. I need sleep. That's my excuse.

MP1 was a new face at Crypto. You know crypto isnt a huge network. If you play for a couple of weeks you get to know all regulars.

At this limit i just don't feel comfortable folding for 6 dollars in a 60 dollar pot. You can't believe what they are showing at showdowns. He could have pocket TTTT and it seriously wouldn't surprise me cus i have seen it before.

That's my excuse for calling.

Is repotting the flop here a good play, or no?

Also, I may have miscounted the outs, but I think we're getting odds to call on the turn here, even without UTG+1 coming along.
