PF call isn't terrible, though I'd like it better if this were a 3/6 hand.

I think I have to either cap the flop or raise the turn here, either way shutting down if MP3 stays aggressive. Button is probably drawing so I'm not particularly concerned about getting overcalls out of him.

Yes, fold preflop.

Cap the flop!! You have the 3rd nuts and the entire field is coming along! Do you need an engraved invitation?

And then, yeah, like, raise some more. Don't be such a pussy. If MP3 has KQ, oh well.

Cap this flop, or raise the turn. You DON'T want a queen hitting the board here - so get your money in while you are most likely ahead.

[mutigers5591]

grunch- i dont understand why you didnt just go on auto bet mode cuz youre not getting away from third nuts unless youre weak as hell just cap turn and river

[Zilarik]

I don't know if I'd cap all three streets here but I would definitely at least cap flop and raise turn.

Preflop call is fine. Your immidiate odds are great, and you have position.

Cap the flop. With so many people, there's no sense in waiting for the turn here. Cap while they'll still call.

Heh... I 3-bet this because it's such a late position raise. And I have position. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

And this doesn't mean I also spew postflop.

Thanks, I knew I would hear cap and probably raise the turn. The hands I fear have just been beating me lately. I was really curious about the pf call.

Fold if I didn't post?
