I'm never folding here.

but I really really want to!

I'm just curious Chris, are you not wanting people to say fold pre because you also agree you should fold pre or because you think you can call this hand profitably IP pre?

As flops said, never ever folding here. If we're not beat now we have a ton of outs and we could also be crushing his A10xx hands.

[EvilPie]

I don't get the question Chris?

You called with a bad hand pre and have turned about as good as it gets.

Seriously what more did you want?

Just get it in, sigh when his set of tens beats you then remember to fold pre next time.

Re preflop- there is a big difference between and   . I might play the latter.

Would like you to expand on this......

you can flop a set + fd

Kerching!!!!!

You can still flop a set + FD though.

More important is that if you flop a set with the bad hand you need 3 of 4 rather than potentially 3 of 5 to actually make the flush.

This confuses me aswell, whats the difference? The only difference that I can see is that with the you're less likely to get paid off by a worse Q flush or J flush because your opponent can't have the J flush.

Is this because you know that you should have folded pre or because you just don't want to? This should be a snapfold imo.

The turn should be a check call because the majority of your value from this hand is going to be when you river your flush or straight against a set. Betting just lets him raise you off your big draw. He almost certainly has AAxx here imo.

Preflop stats (if you have them) would help greatly here because some people only raise AAxx, KKxx hands pre, especially at .50/1 where people tend to play pretty straightforward.

As played the turn is a call, but only just. Against AAxx you have exactly 33.33% equity, so you need to be getting 2 to 1 to call. Its $57.24 to call and there is $114.54 in the pot. Searching for z3r0 on PTR draws a blank so we have no reason to assume that he's good and that he's check folding on a club river and he's definitely not folding on an offsuit Q river or the 6. He has $60.54 back on the river so if you get that every time you hit your draw, with the implied odds of getting the rest of his stack (0.33 x 60.54) then you're actually calling $57.24 to win $134.52 so you get 2.35 to 1

Because flop cant come  Xc Xd giving us flush draws and sets.

I wouldnt play either but the KcJc hand can hit far more combi draws.

[Woodsey]

As played, I'm not folding. But I assume he had a bigger set, that is why your asking?

[titaniumbean]

I don't play multi cards but surely he just always has TT/AA here.
