Default 87s

UTG is 27/13/2 over 145 hands. Seems reasonable.

CO is fish 53/20/1 over 135 hands, not folding to many continuation bets.


Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG ($902.35)
MP ($381.95)
CO ($687.45)
Hero ($595.60)
SB ($1489.85)
BB ($693.65)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $3.
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $20</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls $20, Hero calls $20, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: ($69) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $55</font>, CO folds

FWIW I am new to NL and if there is a standard way to play this than I'd like to know as well.

i hope this is a playalong, those are always fun.

just call here because you don't have extra outs, and he's unlikely to fire a c-bet OOP into 2 people without a piece of it.

I sometimes raise and sometimes call here depending on the player. I'd call here I guess, but there are a bunch of different ways to play a flush draw.

I should have mentioned that my image is nittier than average 2+2er and my raises probably generate more FE. Although, I think calling is pretty much usually the best play here if the guy has a reasonable continuation bet percentage.

Anyways, I made it $200, he pushed, and I folded. Meh?

I think you're getting odds when he pushes, if you're going to raise it should be with the intention of calling a push IMO.

raising to fold to a push... kinda lame.

you basically killed all the value of your hand
