It was called "spew" and "unprofitable"

[FGators]

As well as being called a donkey. Keep in mind I usually lead and then push over a raise but I was changing it up. Villain here is FrinkX. He hates me (I think). Hes pretty good and runs at 22/16 over 1000 hands. Keep in mind I don't raise here if the button doesn't make this bet. If there is an early lead I probably just call. Thought there could be some fold equity here since it was checked to him. Also once I put in $65 I thought I was getting a good enough price and couldn't be that dead if I were to call with the gutshot/ flush draw.

Isn't post flop basically standard?

[carrotsnake]

The bad things about this play - your not using your position well at all, because of UTG, I'd either b/3b flop or c/c it and hope UTG comes along to give me better odds. However, the fact is there is no way that getting a big combo draw in on the flop is ever really spew. Just ignore people f, seriously, they just want to piss you off so you'll break and tilt to them or something of that matter.

Lead out here to try to get UTG trapped then 3bt allin.

[soon2b]

this is fine, but b3b is usually better

oh, and dont worry, frinkx hates everyone

I agree. When trying to get AI with a draw, it's always better to be the pusher, thus securing some profit in the form of FE.

Isn't it easier by check raising here since there are two opponents. I think having the oppurunity to b/3b all in is significantly decreased by the fact that there are three people in this pot instead of just two.

[jonyy6788]

besides folding preflop, b/3b is your best line

we don't want to be putting in the last bet....we want villain to be calling OUR all-in (thus FE)

[wrschultz]

This is totally standard, but like carrotsnake said, b/3/b is probably going to be better here, and then if you don't c/c is probably better. Still c/r is totally standard and fine, and not even close to 'spew' or 'unprofitable.'

Btw, I don't hate you!

The way the hand played out, you were getting about 2:1 on your money when villain put you all in and your about even money against an overpair, seems like an easy call. I would have lead and 3bet
