    Default your thoughts on this hand

    1-2 NL cash game

    you're SB with everyone folds around to the puck who limps in. I limp, BB checks (3 see the flop)

    $6 in the pot.

    Flop:

    I fire a $6 at it, BB (who is very loose/agressive and I know well) raises to $25, the dealer cold calls the $25

    I think about it for a bit and decide to call as well. There is now $81 in the pot.

    Turn is ugly. It's

    I check, BB bets $60, dealer moves allin like his pants are on fire (this was my first time playing vs this guy) his allin is $130

    You have roughly $220 in your stack..the BB who made it $60 has over $700 in his stack.

    What do you do at this point and why? (and yes, at this point I know that I should've either folded or raised the $25 on the flop)
    sites I play on:
    Pokerstars for tournaments
    Ultimatebet for Omaha
    SupremePoker.com for short handed NL ring games.

    Cold call and then all in with that board - has to have a flush - I think I fold. You have 9 outs (K,3 & 6) to the full house and 1 to the quad dueces so you need 3.6:1 to call and you're only getting 1.7:1. unless BB sticks around for implied odds on his stack - not too likely.

    I think you have to fold there.

    You might have managed to stay out of that situtaion if you had re-raised all in on the flop - I don't like the call there because at least one of you opponenst HAS to be on a flush draw and you're not making them pay to see it.

    Anyone else just dumping pre-flop? I think the river is an easy fold.

    From the SB with a suited king? No way.

    Call me weak, I just don't see much of a value to playing that hand.

    Default new here

    just my thoughts on the hand (only been playing a year tho =\)

    with the $25 call, i would re-raise a substantial amount maybe an all in), to make him really think about the flush draw i've put him on.

    at the turn if i wasn't all in i would definately be folding it just ain't worth it anymore, and i'm not one who ever get's pot committed.

    just my thoughts

    Preflop is fine, unless you feel like raising. BB most likely has a flush draw/small overpair/straight draw thing. I don't see him doing this with a 2, and besides, even if he has a 2, you probably have the best hand. That being said the $25 cold call scares me. It's either the nutflushdraw, or 33.(4s5s is possible if he sucks i guess) I probably reraise the flop. River has to be a fold.
