    pretty hard to get away from that, over pairn and a belly if you are behind, you have 6 outs to improve.

    6 handed, you need to raise it to 300-350 PF to try to win the pot unless the table is extrememly loose to take down the small pot PF. I think you need to re-raise all in if it's folded to you or fold. I like folding because you have a really good stack here and this pot is too small to defend for what you've invested.

    I still say that 6 handed in the CO, you need to be raising PF with this hand. You have the position to knock out the blinds and see what UTG does on the flop. If UTG calls PF, you're winning a nice pot most of the time when he checks. There are a lot of flops that win you a pot without showdown.

    I make it 1200 to go right here and now, 800 (about 2/3 pot) raise. This is an isolated hand though. I don't know anything about the flop bettor's betting patterns, so that could change my answer. But I got an overpair here, You would have seen a raise PF for a hand that has you beat right now, probably aside fron 55, 22, 33, and A4, 46, but i'm pretty sure that a floppe straight with no immediate redraws is not betting here. This size of bet tells everybody else that your ready to rumble, and are willing to commit your stack.

    But I agree, you need to pop this about 3-4 bb's (or whatever your normal PF rasie has been) PF to get this HU or take it now. IF you get it HU, and this flops hit, you KNOW you are ahead, since anyhand that would still be with you will 95% of the time be behind.

    That is one of the worst case that can happen IMO: almost any other card is a scaring card :P.

    Raise the preflop since it is short-handed.

    Here's the rest of this hand. I think I should have raised the flop, once I got to this point, the call looked real weak, like i was chasing a str8 or something.

    At what point will you raise mid PP vs. calling and folding unless the set hits? 7 handed, 6?

    Hero (t2515)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with , .
    UTG calls t100, 1 fold, Hero calls t100, 1 fold, SB completes, BB checks.

    You played that terribly. If you're calling the flop to hit a 6 or a 4 you're making a terrible play. I wouldn't put him on an 8 so either call here on the turn or fold/raise the flop. I might fold preflop depending on who is UTG.

    I wouldve gone all in on his 750 cause it would've been your 750:2700. As if this guy had anything after the flop anyways...then agin I have no clue what the table was like
