The table was really weak, hence the VERY loose call PF. I figured I'd be able to see a cheap flop and hopefully connect big. Both villains were pretty fishy, UTG+1 especially.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (8 handed)

BB ($4.30)
UTG ($6.75)
UTG+1 ($27.10)
Hero ($14.90)
MP2 ($20.50)
CO ($2.95)
Button ($3.55)
SB ($2.60)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with

,

.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.10, Hero calls $0.10, 3 folds, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: ($0.40)

,

(4 players)
SB checks, BB bets $0.6, UTG+1 calls $0.60, Hero calls $0.60, SB folds.

Turn: ($2.20)

(3 players)
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $1, BB calls $1, UTG+1 calls $1.

River: ($5.20)

(3 players)
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: $5.20

Results in white below:
BB has 3c 5c (high card, king).
UTG+1 has Ad Jc (one pair, jacks).
Hero has 6c 8c (straight, jack high).
Outcome: Hero wins $5.20.

Raise the damn flop man

WTF? 15 outs and you call?

**obga** · 05-16-2006

15 outs?
8 clubs
4 9s =12

where are the other 3?

as for playing it differently, i would of jammed the pot on the flop, turn, and the river

if i get reraisee im reraising, if he holds queen 8 more power to him

I can understand raising the flop and the turn but that river is a scary card, no?

**Fishodeath** · 05-16-2006

yea, Raise the turn more, I'm always happy to take a pot down unless I have a total lock on the hand.

I would check behind on the river too, any jackass with a queen has you and QK is a definate possiblity here. If the Queen of clubs hit you would get paiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid.

bet the ps on the turn. everything else looks fine.
Flop is raise-able, but a flat call is fine as well. Although raising flop helps u get a free card on the turn, and helps u build the pot if u hit. Either that or u take down the flop uncontested.

Pretty loose with your money and not that savvy about straights!

Re-raise the flop; Pot size bet on turn; Check the river down

^I agree with this.
On the turn you want to put pressure on anyone drawing to a higher flush or better str8.

**tightagressive** · 05-17-2006

bet $2.20 on the turn, good check on the river

**KINGJACK** · 05-17-2006

You have to bet the pot on turn... 2 reasons:

cut the odds to a FD or better str8, and to be sure you will make lots of $$$ when hou hit 86s after a limp in MP.

I may also raise the flop in order to disguise my draw and build the pot... + it gives you an opportunity to win it right away.

I'm ok with the check on the river... KQ or even more probably QT could still be in the hand.
