You expect him to fold???? Some of the calls I have been getting recently in cash games are unbelievable, it is as though they can see my hole cards. - short term these cals hurt, but long term they MUST be profitable for you ?!

Firstly, limping with J8o UTG is pretty advanced in itself. Not only do the offsuit cards give him two chances of hitting a flush, but by playing 2-gap connectors he gives himself more straight possibilities. His flop call is justified by the implied odds that his numerous draws are giving him: 2 jacks or eights on the turn/river give him trips, plus the runner/runner straight that m3boy mentioned. He is also already ahead of many holdings such as T8o, and J7o. Title: Re: can someone explain the call on the flop Post by: kinboshi on May 27, 2007, 12:36:03 PM I like his play.
