Re: bottom-end straight vs. flushy board
 

Seems exactly how a bad villain would play a flush, but saying that 20 more to win 150 dollar pot...i find myself calling and losing here a lot. Also, I don't like the best sizing on the turn or river

Re: bottom-end straight vs. flushy board
 

the pot would be at $101, but same idea, $20 isn't much more. So I agree calling river is right.

But you mentioned you don't like the bet sizing. What should i have bet on turn and river? I assume you'd bet near pot on turn and river?

Is check/fold the river ok? or is that too weak? I'm lost....

Pretty awkward spot. I probably bet alot more on the turn to get value and protect against a hand with one [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]... then the riv is a really easy shove.

BTW you should always play with 100bb full stack to get the most value. You may also be better off posting in the NL full ring forum.

this is nl200 fullring right?

why are you playing 87s utg+1 especially as a shortie? i havent played fullring in a long time but this just seems really bad to me. youre going to be oop against almost everyone who is likely to call you and worst of all your hand is very speculative. i would understand raising here in 6 max but in full ring this just seems like spew to me.
