Default Re: Push flop or push turn?

[ QUOTE ]
I'm not saying that calling this flop isn't +EV. I'm quite sure it is. It just isn't as profitable as pushing. And it isn't close unless he's dumb as a box of turnips.

If he's as dumb as a box of turnips, you don't have very much fold equity against him either, as he won't lay down a pair.

Pushing combo draws is better the more fold equity you have, because the best case scenario is that your opponent folds. I suspect that against a lot of villains at this level it would be better to call for implied odds with tons of outs than go for a flip against top pair.

That said, I would probably push here because the size of the pot cuts down your implied odds and makes it quite feasible to get all the money in. I just don't think it's as simple as you suggest, and I think you're wrong if you think that we've got a small % 'edge' in terms of hand value here that we have to maximize by pushing. Sorry if I misunderstood your pst though.

Exactly what i was thinking.

This bet screams TP and at this level i don't think he's folding. even so;
