need help 27TD 5/10

Fiasco · #1 11-29-2006, 07:10 AM

OK, im just picking this game up, so this may be horrible. Any advice on any street is appreciated.

folded around to the SB who seems like a pretty decent/tight player. SB raises and I reraise with 24679.

SB takes two and I stay pat (??)
SB checks I bet
SB takes 1 I stay pat
SB checks, I bet, SB checkraises, I folded.

In retrospect this seems like an awful fold as I could have broken and drawn to a 67, but I dont think Id seen him checkraise once before, and I was convinced for some reason that he had a 7.

Thoughts?

If you are convinced he had a 7 its a good fold, but he probably did not and its probably not a good fold. I would draw one initially hoping to make a big big hand. Also if he's good he will take a shot at you somewhere in the hand and may have done so. This is a great spot to take a shot at someone because its just damn hard to make a great initially pat hand especially in a blind battle so he just assumes you have a hand like you have.

I would normally be inclined to take 1 at the first draw (and certainly would have if he had taken 1) but I thought with him drawing 2 I could end the hand immediately if he didnt improve, or if he only improved to a rough draw.

It would be wrong for him to fold both a solid 3 card hand or a fairly rough one card hand if you stay pat. He will certainly peel. Gotta draw one here.

I pitch the 9 first draw.
