.\|/. 0 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I would most likely play it the same for what its worth but I think its pretty close to an even money proposition (with 3 in the hand).When you hit the hand and get paid extra its nice. However I wonder if UTG could have had some of your outs though (maybe a lower set?, obviously he doesnt have the straight/topset). Looks like the SB did too but I dont think you had any way to know that for sure. Link to post Share on other sites

jonnyutah 0 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Would a preflop raise narrow the field? If yes than IMO you need to be more aggressive early to help define your opponents hands and take the lead. Your on the button, use it, and your early aggresion could buy you an extra card, or the pot, later. Also, after the 5 comes on the turn, what was your initial thought for the river? Are you---Way ahead? Way behind? No idea? Link to post Share on other sites
cdddc75 0 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Folding to the flop check/raise is mathematically correct. You've got about a 1/3 chance to win and you're putting $5 into a $7.45 pot. Even if you don't assume a straight is already made, you can't like the chances of top set holding up, so you're drawing for a boat. Link to post Share on other sites

cdddc75 0 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 i have to put in $3.80 more when the pot is about $10.I missed the $1.20 you had already put in. nh then, though folding the turn as Smash suggested is probably even better. Didn't bother to run that one through my head though. Link to post Share on other sites

With only ten outs, I don't think it is right. Can you plug that into the odds calculator (the one with pokertracker for example)? Link to post Share on other sites
