CobaltBlue 662 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 After a really washy, crummy few hours, this hand came up...Bodog 3/6 NLHE (8-handed)UTG $175Cobalt $645SB $514Cobalt is UTG+1 w/ 8 8 . UTG is a donk. SB seems relatively solid.Pre-flop:UTG min-raises to $12, Cobalt calls, 4 folds, SB re-raises to $48, 1 fold, UTG calls, Cobalt callsFlop ($150): 8 K 9 (3 players)SB bets $156, UTG calls all-in for $127, Cobalt raises to $408, SB callsTurn ($1092): J (3 players)SB goes all-in for $58, Cobalt callsRiver ($1208): 6 (3 players)Final Pot: $1208I think everything's standard, but correct me if I'm wrong.

I'd be on teh fence re teh pf call of the reraise but I guess it's cool since UTG called in front. SB could also be on a squeeze.nh Link to post Share on other sites
DonkSlayer 1 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I guess you won, nh. Sb had KdQd or AdKd, right? Link to post Share on other sites
PotemkinCity 1 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 nice pot, glad it held up, what did the other cats have? Link to post Share on other sites
DrawingDeadInDM 0 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Meh, I'm not really fond of the call preflop. When the SB raises the UTG min raise, knowing he'll be OOP for the hand, he's telling you he has a monster. That being said, yeah, the rest looks pretty standard. Awful turn card--btw, why not put the SB all in on the flop? Link to post Share on other sites
Peak01 0 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Nice hand. I would be a little hesitant on the call pf as well but I am also a pansy. Nice call and nice pot. Link to post Share on other sites

Awful turn card--btw, why not put the SB all in on the flop?i think this is the strongest reason to call preflop - implied odds are goot.and i don't get the flop raise - either raise less, or just push it all in. only $56 left though doesn't matter a lot, just a bit weird Link to post Share on other sites
KowboyKoop 0 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 iffy preflop call I think..but if you are confident you can get paid off if you hit..I think it's fine. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 I just figured he'd push in if he was planning on calling. Sometimes I like to leave them a little slack. Like...so they feel better that they can go all-in and force me to call (even though it's pretty much a given at that point) rather than have to call all-in.And, each opponent had AK...no flush draw. I was thrilled to have them drawing dead on the turn. I was a little shocked by SB's play. I guess he put me on the draw or KQ? :mellow:Anyway, it was the biggest pot I've ever won, so that went well with having lost the most I've ever lost in a hand earlier in the session. (I held 99 on a board of K93K4.) Link to post Share on other sites
krup24 0 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I don't care for the pf callBut we r settin or forgettin right and gettin 3:1 I think this pf call is -EV over the long haul Link to post Share on other sites
srblan 0 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I don't mind the call PF at all. SB could be trying to isolate the donk, and since you have position, it's not a terrible play to risk $48 to win 500. I don't particularly care for SB's call on the flop that much, but I haven't played with you so I don't know if you are capable of raising there with a hand that he beats.
