antistuff 0 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 here, i think i wouldn't hate it if you check/folded the turn. maybe a slight exaggeration, but you get my point. Link to post Share on other sites
Syous 0 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 given btn's cold flat on the flop and now raising the flush on the turn, i can't see how we're ahead. what's he raising with that we beat? Every draw got there except for 45 Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Even if we are in a spot where we have outs against the button, as in he has two pair, our equity sucks, especially since BB is often sitting on a big draw of some sort, possibly killing any outs we may have (pair + fd or something).Our best case scenario, in terms of getting to showdown for the best price results in us needing to be ahead at showdown roughly 10% of the time. I highly doubt we are, when we weigh how often BB us drawing dead, combined with the times that we're ahead, or drawing semi live, but our outs are blocked, or we have to dodge a dozen cards when we are ahead.

RabidTortuga 0 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I'm curious about the flop raise. We probably have the best hand right now, but against the BB bet and 2 callers before the action gets to us, might we be better off waiting for a safe turn card? Link to post Share on other sites
