Ugly flop

[mostman]

Agree with tufat. Raise here and be ready to call the shove.

Villian is probably sitting on TT or JJ - testing the waters here with this bet. If your line is correct, neither of them can be diamonds as we could have expected him to lean out on the flop.

Your raise will cause pretty high fold equity.

That's way to weak. $93 is much betta.

I assume we're calling when he pushes then?

I played a hand like this the other day where i checked the flop, then minraised the turn with the intention of folding to a shove. Would that be terrible?

Admittedly when I did it, it was against a fairly passive fish.

are we really? is he gonne bet/3-bet the turn here w/a weaker overpair or the lone A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. i know the pot is big, but how often are we really ahead if he 3-bet shoves the turn?

[Bumfuzzled]

unless he has a set, you're probably ahead. i'd probably make it $90

Thanks for the comments. I thought villains turn bet looked alot like Adx/TdT type hands so I potted it and obv called a push getting a bajillion to 1.

Still don't feel great about this hand even though alot of the thoughts seemed to go along w/ mine and how I played it. I may be being a bit results orientated though.
