Default Re: I took a flop with 86 soooted (6.5)

wiggs,

a) i just think that you have very little fold equity preflop (people are crazy at this stage of the tournament), so you pretty much never take down a nice pot preflop. obviously you might take it down with a CB sometimes, but a lot of the time you'll be taking multiple opponents to the flop and a CB will be ineffective.

i guess it's just that i'm not looking to build a big pot with this hand. i wanna invest my 30 chips and try and make 1500 out of it.

b) well yeah, he's played it like a flush draw. he's also played it like 4x, 56, A8, 77, and a bunch of other hands. so i'm not as concerned with charging his draw as i am showing down my weak top pair.
