Re: OESD on a mono flop
 

very interesting hand.

monotone boards never hit nits, so i probably c/r here. though a 3bet would make things ugly.

obviously many of your outs may be counterfitted.

check/call would be ok too... i'd go broke if I hit straight on turn, as long as it it wasnt a heart.

giving up is not an option IMO. you have a nice flop for a 3-bet flop, and can probabbly get him to lay down a hand thats ahead.

his flop likely scars him equally...

Re: OESD on a mono flop
 

Usually gives up I think. You cannot really draw OOP as you have 6 clean outs only (the rest kill the hand or action). Betting may be floated here as the pot isn't that big and will likely be floated if villain has a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. And c/r bluff can and should be done rarely but really it invests a lot to win little and villain may still re-semi-bluff you with something like A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Kx.

Half of overpairs have a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. And not all of those that do not will give up immediately.

Re: OESD on a mono flop
 

But when you call the 3-bet, what kind of flop are you looking for?

If you're going to dump this so easily, you should folp preflop.

I would fold to the preflop raise. Why did you stick around?

because I hate folding to pussy reraises, I prob wouldn't call with weaker offsuit hands, but a suited 1gapper I like calling

Re: OESD on a mono flop
 

He's deep enough to call this raise. Or at least I would without even thinking.... I've never been much of a numbers guy though.

It just seems like in order to win the pot with a hand like this that has been reraised into, you have to bluff him back out of the hand almost everytime. Do you turn a profit with hands like suited gappers, double gappers etc in this situation?

I'm not sure what the $100 games are like, but if i start folding tese at 200 I will get run over. You have crazy implied odds.

This raise is pretty small so I don't have too much of a problem with it. However, if he has a read that this guy is pretty tight then it probably isn't the best guy to be making this call with. I don't think the implied odds for suited 1-gaps OOP aren't particularly great.
