Default Getting Value from Set Queens

Should i push all-in or should i make a small raise?
Last days I red Sklanskys T+P again and i want to try to think a little deeper about betsizes.

I tryed to analyze this hand i want to hear from you wheter my thought prozess is right or did i make any mistakes.
Is the math allright?


While i played the hand i thought that i get a full stack from AQ/88 anyways. AK is unlikely.
All draws folds to a push so why should i push this flop?

I gave him 12 Outs ( for a hand like KsJs) and discounted them to 1-(17/47) * 12 = 7,7 Outs.

So i have to reraise´his bet 7,7/47 * (104$+32$+425$) = 92$ and he has to fold. So should i reraise now to 104$+92$= 196$ or should i make a bigger raise in hope that villain is stupid enough to make a bigger odds and outs mistake?




Villain is a thinking LAG.

You gotta give villain a chance to stab at the pot another time on the turn. I dont know how LAG this guy is but he could have a wide range at this point. I would just call and push the turn.

Your math seems off btw. If he has a draw this strong he will have to call your push anyway.
And why would you give yourself 17 outs for the redraw??

I play it the same, but he could easily have AK or something here, a call might induce a turn bet.

It's up to you how it is best to play this hand. If you call, you can get a lot more value out of all hands that are not AQ, A8, 88. They will definitely bet hard on the turn as well. However, you are also giving him a "free" card to hit any potential draw - and if he is on a draw and doesn't hit you probably won't be able to get that much more out of him.

You have position on him, so I think calling is good here. I'd go with an gut feel you may have [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Shoooper easy call. Doubt he's felting Ax to your push here. I'd be inclined to use position and push de turn.

people who c/r top pair here should be allowed to hang themselves over a few streets rather than let off easy
