Re: Hand from poker quiz
Well, sure enough it's a retarded question. I didn't invent it, Steward Reuben and Bob Ciaffone did. You shouldn't be in this pot on the turn, but you made a silly call or bluff, and now you have the nuts by hitting a 3-outer. I say push, too. It's just that the authors say fold, with a raise being a horrible choice and call being an almost okay play. I don't get it. They are referring to play on the turn, not the flop. Even if I got in this situation from by making a mistake, I still maximize EV by pushing now.
By the way, unless the money was deep, even if you knew he was on a freeroll, I guess you'd still call him down.
