If he has trips I have eight outs for the straight and two queens to beat him Got to call yes? Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: ifm on January 05, 2006, 01:03:38 PM I'm really getting into these!!
I say the river bet is too big, i say he has JQ, KJ or AJ and feels he can win it here with this bet. CALL!!!! I prefer not to over analyse these as you only have limited time online. Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: yt on January 05, 2006, 01:53:39 PM I would call and it's probably why I lose too much at cash games.
I also would have gone all in when he reraised you on the flop. Which come to think about it is another reason i lose a lot at cash games. he limped from one of the button and called your 5x button raise. what does that mean? would he do that with AA KK? I doubt it. He 'may' have limped like he did but as soon as you showed him some action he would have reraised. So I guess he has what ifm said or maybe pp that tripped up. either way I couldn't fold. the pot is a little under 2-1 on the call right? argh its a decent fold but i couldnt do it CALLLLLLLLLLLL Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call?

Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: Highstack on January 05, 2006, 04:05:02 PM He check minimum raised the flop and was hoping for a brick on the turn. The turn was a scare card even though he must have known that you hadn't raised 5*bb with KQ, but didn't want any cheap draws against him. This is why he correctly now pused in.
Your turn call was not a great one (even if you did fortunately have 16 outs when the cards flipped over), but you already know this and it was difficult to put him on a hand, but so many that he could bet with beat you. His 5bb preflop call with J9o when out of position was awful and only he knows why he made it! Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: totalise on January 05, 2006, 04:17:40 PM easy when you know the results!
Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: snoopy1239 on January 05, 2006, 04:49:31 PM This situation often crops up in cash games. Whether it's against trips or 2 pair, many players do their stack holding the overpair.
This hand is made even more difficult by the flush draw and the jack. The presence of both means that TightEnd could be beating AJ, KJ, QJ, JT, AQ suited, AT suited, and so on. Therefore, there are quite a few beatable hands that may raise Tighty's flop bet. And then, to make matters worse, the turn brings an up and down straight draw. So now the information is even harder to decipher, plus, Tighty now has potential outs to tempt him. This is a very unfortunate turn of events. Raising again on the flop won't tell you too much either because your 'online' opponent still won't fold some of the potential beatable hands mentioned above. Personally, I'd be tempted to fold on the flop. Assuming that you're better than the rest of the table, you can probably wait for better opportunites where you are more certain about the strength of their hand. Here you are forced to guess, and, even if you are proved right, you can still be outdrawn. Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: Highstack on January 05, 2006, 04:57:32 PM I don't really agree with those potential holdings snoopy. If he has something like AJ and the flop comes J high there is no way he is looking to check raise in case TE takes the free card behind him and then certainly not min raise. This play can only occur, if you KNOW your opponent will make a continuation bet regardless of hitting that flop or not.
Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: TightEnd on January 05, 2006, 05:00:37 PM so Highstack you might fold to the flop raise or would you have done your $ here?
Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: snoopy1239 on January 05, 2006, 05:03:13 PM I think I'm probably in the minorty here when I say I'd fold on the flop.
It's just that, from my experience, a minumum checkraise is nearly always a sign of trips and two pair. Once you call, you let yourself either become pot committed or tempted by an inviting turn card. Title: Re: I must be beat? and I have to call? Post by: Highstack on January 05, 2006, 05:09:18 PM Not on the flop for just $32 more. I think I would have called and waited to see what the turn brought. I would then be looking to get to the end as cheap as possible. If he bet around 50 on the turn I would end up comitted and doing my $ there, but his all in manouvre gives you an excuse to pull out I think.
Not great advice because I am in no way trying to regain control of the hand, but I think sometimes every $ saved is a $ earned. |
