We all find ourselves in this touchy situation about 600 times a session. So I'm wondering, how do you guys like to play these types of hands? An example:
PokerStars 0.50/1.00 Hold'em (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums) Preflop: Hero is BB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks. Flop: (3 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, SB folds, Hero calls. Turn: (2.50 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero??? |

assuming the villains are unknown, i'd bet the flop in order not to give a free card.
as played i'd c/r the flop once sb folds, since it's likely mp is FOS. as played i'd c/c the turn, c/f an overcard river, c/r/f a 7, c/r/c an 8, and c/c an undercard. i don't know if these lines are optimal against a complete unknown but that's what i'd probably do. |

There's nothing wrong with betting out.

I prefer betting out compared to C/R. There is only 3SB in the pot and this gives us some bad reverse implied odds with checkraising. If he has us beat our checkraising will cost us 2sb on the flop + 2sb when we bet out on the turn. That is 4sb to win 1 sb. It would be much easier to just bet out and if he calls or raises we can decide from that point.
Generally we want to come down cheap so no need to get tricky with our marginal made hand. Bet out must be it. |

This flop is unlikely to have hit anyone, so I just bet out to prevent giving a free card to two players. Take it down, next hand.

no it isnt, make him pay to draw to his overcards. I don't see how putting money in with an equity advantage is pointless if Villain wont fold the street.

either donk or c/r the flop depending on the villains. Then the turn becomes much easier to play.

[/ QUOTE ] youd rather win 1 BB then potentially up to 2.5 BB with a passive line? not to mention the pot is tiny. play the hand in a manner that makes you the most money. you dont have to worry about defending your hand when the pot is this small. if hes gonna bet any turn card when you check he's paying for his own draw. i should also add that you could already be beat and are making it expensive to find out. |
