Who folds here?

[TightEnd]

This is today's Poker Quiz on Cardplayer

The suggested answer to the question is: Fold.

I'll leave the justification for why til later

who agrees, who disagrees?


A $10/$20 game. You raise in MP with AhKc after an early player limps. Two later players and the limper call. $95 in pot, four players.

Flop is 9c7d3s

EP checks, you bet and you get one caller

$115 in pot, two players

Turn is Ah, giving you TPTK

You bet, and get raised

There is $175 in pot, and it costs you $20 to call

What do you do

Answer: Fold.

Over to you......................

[ifm]

with odds like that i'm gonna put $20 in regardless of whether i think i'm behind or not

[snoopy1239]

Is this a limit game?

[ACE2M]

CAll probably. Depends on how much he has left i.e. how much is it going to cost me on the river, am i behind or before the re raiser?

Have to accept sometimes that you have to pay someone off.

[NoflopsHomer]

Is it limit or no limit?

I'm assuming Matey Boy has made trips or at the very least, but unlikely, has A9. If he knows you've got the ace, why is he raising you unless he's got you beat. Plus you'll most likely face another bet on the river.

[TightEnd]

The way it reads, it's limit....thus capping your exposure on the river

I wondered how many of you could fold getting pot odds of 9-1?...I don't play a lot of limit, but I'm interested to learn why this is a fold here.

[ACE2M]

i definately call in limit. No doubt. If he has two pair i have outs which depends on the two pair. If he has trips then fair enough i will pay him the bet. I can't fold here, would like to know why someone can?

[NoflopsHomer]

I think the assumption is that he has trips and that you're drawing dead, but I'd check/call it down, I can't see him having any other hand than 77,99 or less likely, A9.

Check in the dark for the river, even if it turns out to be an A or K.

[patman]

i`d call

if he has flopped two pair(i`d be suprised) or trips then i`m paying him off. If its limit then i would be prepared to go with it and i would have expected him to bet the flop.

if its no limit then yes he may make the river a big bet...but on the turn i`m in and see what the river brings.....it may bring trips or 2 pair for me


oooh me head hurts

[Royal Flush]

its not clear if you are in or out of position here.


If i am out of position i will check call.

If i am in position i would re-raise then check the river if i felt i was behind.

If i am out of position i will check call.

If i am in position i would re-raise then check the river if i felt i was behind.

Why would u reraise?

[Royal Flush]

If i re-raise i can checkdown for free if i feel the need. Or value bet if he is AQ which is what i think he has here.

If he caps it i know i am dead to a set and can pass.

[TheJagster]

in any event....folding here doesnt seem to be an option.

Because there are two Ace of hearts in the deck? ... or you are holding a 2 that you thought was an Ace and your name is tikay?
