Live 40-80 Borgata flop decision

dcb777 · #1 01-23-2007, 01:41 AM

Good 40-80 game last Saturday at the Borgata. I started out running well, but have taken several beats over the past few hours and SB in the hand in question has been whispering to his friend about certain hands I have been involved in. He might think that I am tilting a bit.

UTG limps(bad losing player who is open limping many hands)

I raise UTG+2 with red JJ

SB smooth calls and 3 of us see the flop which comes

KK5 with two hearts. SB leads out and UTG calls. What line do you think is best in this spot and why?

I will post the rest of the hand later, but I want some unbiased feedback about the lines some of you would plan on taking in this hand having just seen the flop.

SB would probably slowplay a K (and I don't give a terrible player much credit for a hand here), so I think you have the best hand among the three of you and you should raise now. Any 5 or small PP will call you down.

Instead of raising I just called the flop waiting to see the action on the turn. Looking back I agree with Joker that raising was the correct play as I was pretty sure the SB had a pocket pair.

The 7 of spades hit the turn. The SB pauses and checks as does UTG and I decide to bet. The SB raises and UTG folds.
Is this an easy fold or a place to look him up?

I'd rather raise a good turn card. Don't know if SB is tough or tricky to c/r the turn without a K. But few would 3 bet without one.

I agree SA, I called down and lost to 77 a turned set.
