    Default Drawing in limit

    PokerStars 0.05/0.10 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

    Preflop: Hero is UTG+2 with , . MP3 posts a blind of $0.05.
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls, 2 folds, MP3 (poster) checks, 1 fold, Button calls, 1 fold, BB raises, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls, MP3 calls, Button calls.

    Flop: (10.40 SB) , , (5 players)
    BB bets, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls, MP3 folds, Button folds.

    Getting 12-1 here, I figured with implied odds I could try to hit a 7.

    Turn: (6.70 BB) (3 players)
    BB bets, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls.

    Now I picked up a flush draw and was getting 8-1, (raise here to represent the flush?)

    River: (8.70 BB) (2 players)
    BB bets, Hero raises, BB folds.

    duh.

    Final Pot: 11.70 BB

    Results in white below:
    Hero has 7s 7h (three of a kind, sevens).
    Outcome: Hero wins 11.70 BB.


    Some of these calls seemed marginal while I made them. But reviewing the odds makes me feel better, where they correct? I guess I put him on The ace so strongly that I didnt think about reverse odds.

    12:1 is not good oods for chasing a set. odds of turn being 7 are like 1/23

    You have 2 outs, 7's. In any game above this limit I fold here on the flop. This play is so marginal though even for this limit.
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    Your play was terrible, fold the flop and definately fold the turn.

    On the turn you are getting less than 10:1, and your implied odds are maybe 12:1, but you could also be drawing dead. You would need implied odds greater than 20:1 to make that play profitable.

    Sorry but this was a fishy play.

    I'm going with Phyto on this one. If it were a NLHE tournament, you might be able to justify playing this way (check my last HH posted with 77) but in a LLHE game, this is a fold to the bet on the flop. I can see the limp PF and even calling the raise PF, but when you don't flop the trips, dump it...

    Not that you need another opinion, but I agree with everyone here. On the flop you have two outs so you're less than 20:1 against hitting your seven, and even if you do hit it, there's a possible flush redraw out there.

    On the turn you can't count the flush cards as full outs since your 7 of spades could easily be beaten by an opponent.
    I'm CDO. It's like OCD, but everying is in order just like it should be.
