yes, as long as you don't go off on the big bet streets just because your draw got better or you made a pair.

Re: .5/1 Correct to peel?
 

Yes peeling is fine but if you hit take a WA/WB line.

Re: .5/1 Correct to peel?
 

Ok pot, makes sence trying to take a stab at it. I would have raised to keep BB out and clear some outs. Then like the others said, call down.

Re: .5/1 Correct to peel?
 

I fold. Yes the pot is big, but many of your draws are making 2nd best hands, so your only clean outs are runner runner and the odds are just not there for that.

We're getting like 13 to 1 on the call. We can pick up an OESD, flush draw, or top pair on the turn. I think this is a must call unless MP is a tight pfr/capper.

Re: .5/1 Correct to peel?
 

An OESD can complete somebodys straight making it very expensive to draw. the same with the flushdraw. Picking up an A will often make a 2nd best hand, so will a J in addition to completing someones straight or flush. Where break even at best on this call.

In my experience the capping range on 0.5/1 is not very wide.

Should be even more true in a 3-way pot out of position. I don't know if calling or folding the flop is correct. I'd prefer to fold myself, but they say I fold too much. In this hand though, I think a fold is in order. The capping range on the average .5/1 player makes this a marginal peel at best, and we aren't closing the action.

Re: .5/1 Correct to peel?
 

Just because the outs are not clean does not necessarily mean we do not have odds to draw.

How I would count them:

BDFD = 1.5 outs
A = 1.25 outs
J = .25 outs
BDSt8 = .25 outs

Total Outs = 3.25 outs

Outs needed to call if BB folds (13.5-1) = 3.24
Outs needed to call if BB calls (14.5-1) = 3.03

I think we have ourselves a very marginal decision. I usually peel because gambling is fun.

Where did the "Outs needed to call if BB CR" go?

A marginal call often turns into a fold when you are not the one closing the action.
