Limp/calling with suited connector

[dmk]

AA gewd.

i like the way you played it. you're likely up against an overpair and you're getting a nice price to hit a 5-outer that could take a bunch of chips off of him. river call is fine - he has AK 1/15 of the time...

Raise the flop or raise the turn to find out where you are and take a free card/showdown.

People in big buyin tournaments make a lot more laydowns than normally.

Considering how small villain's bets are, why do we want to raise? He's giving us a cheap showdown, and we've got a very marginal hand.

Line is fine, but I like raising that board on the turn for a free card... but considering it looks like you want to go to showdown cheap I understand

Villain has either unpaired Big Ace or Small Overpair which he is playing weak OOP with a rapidly coordinating board...

Everyone who says raise the turn for a free card: what does that mean? Calling's obviously the cheapest way to see the last card.

My guess is that they mean that the villian will maybe check on the turn?

This thread sucks.

Betgo, if you knew what he had, why are you posting this hand? And why are you not telling us your read? And why, if you knew what he had, were you calling the turn and river? If you knew what he had you should have either been raising or folding.

[Art Vandelay]

Any reads other than "tell me what villian has"? Kind of hard on just want we have.

I like the way you played it, I want to keep the pot small with this holding and it appears that villian is doing that for us with his very small bets. If villian had been prone to 2/3 to pot sized bets, a raise on the turn to get to a free showdown would get more consideration from me.

Without reads, I have a very hard time telling you exactly what he has. I'll guess missed overs first (AK, AQ most likely) and mid pocket pair like 88 second.

[MLG]

I generally fold the flop, more because of MP2 than anything else. Turn and river I agree with.

Congrats btw.

This isn't true. If raising the turn/flop folds out a garbage hand that will bluff the later streets, raising's wrong.

True, as long as the garbage hand has no outs.
