    Default Thoughts?

    Analyze from both angles.

    Ultimate Bet 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

    Preflop:
    1 fold, UTGB calls, 1 fold, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, 3 folds, SB completes, BB checks.

    Flop: (5 SB) , , (5 players)
    SB checks, BB bets, UTGB raises, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, SB folds, BB calls.

    Turn: (5.50 BB) (3 players)
    BB checks, UTGB bets, MP2 folds, BB calls.

    River: (7.50 BB) (2 players)
    BB checks, UTGB bets, BB calls.

    Final Pot: 9.50 BB

    Results in white below:
    BB has 6d Qh (two pair, queens and sixes).
    UTGB has Qc Jh (one pair, queens).
    Outcome: BB wins 9.50 BB.
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    Luck is a Residue of Design.

    OK, here's how I see it, without looking at the results.

    BB flopped bottom two with 64. I don't know the player, but with top two he might have come over the top. However, I think he has two pair, and just called being scared of the flush.


    I think UTGB may either have QJ/QT, or he has Kx with the King of spades. I odn't know if he would play garbage like Kx. However, if I had Kx with the spade here, I might raise trying to steal it. So, those are my guesses. Time to check the results!

    Excellent reading AT, but what do you tink of HOW they played it?

    Wow, that was pretty good.

    I think the BB play was good, as I would probably go into call-down mode there. I may have folded on the turn, with straight and flush draws out, but I think he played it all right.

    UTGB...ummm. Hell, I am probably folding on the flop. For the BB to bet there, he probably has two pair, or even flopped the flush. So, I'm glad the BB won this one.

    You are so easily beaten by the turn. The fold wouldn't be very hard. Sure, I might not fold it, but it would certainly cross my mind, and I probably would.

    Thanks...the BB was pretty easy since he was after all, in the BB. I'm assuming people here will be raising with Axs, that is why I excluded that from the possibilities. UTGB, I really wasn't sure about. But, I think the only two options were a weak Queen, or maybe KTish with the Ks.

    No one else had any thoughts on this hand?

    I find it odd for the BB to call down those bets. How big were the bets in relation to the pot size and what has been the betting pattern at the table?

    LImit game, and semi passive calling. Calling down this bet was rare. The UTGB (whats the B mean?) probably was makng +EV bets, and BB was probably making a break even play (really not -EV nor +EV).
