well seems fine...

Shove or flatcall flop... no reason to leave him with 3.35 in a 10.85 pot. A flop as low as this I shove... If it were something like Q6Q I'd flatcall, because it's a lot more likely we are only called when drawing to 9 outs instead of 15.

Oh well, maybe you suck him with a smaller raise when he's real stupid... I still prefer a shove

Spurious · #5 09-07-2007, 07:07 PM

if BB has a FD i want him to call, i think a shove is an overbet and commits me. If BB was going for a c/r i would unnecessarily put in a lot of money.

A shove commits you allright [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]. Leaves nothing to commit though [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] it's a matter of definition i guess.... haha

A raise also commits you and him though. So you both should know you are playing for stacks and for showdown as soon as you make a raise on this flop. Therefore you might as well get it allin IMO. On the other hand, your opponent might be too stupid to realise this and call a smallish raise to find himself committed at the turn. Not likely though, he'd need to be real stupid and you DO give a free card playing like that.

do you realise, that i dont want to play for stacks with BB is still in the hand, therefore i am calling

vixticator · #8 09-07-2007, 08:25 PM

I really don't think you need to be concerned about BB. He checked. That's enough info IMO. If he is calling raise, maybe a push as well. Just move in here to isolate.

Spurious · #9 09-07-2007, 08:29 PM

I put BB on some PP or high Cards.
Therefore i dont want to risk too much.

Hmm... Wasn't really sober enough yesterday [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]. If BB calls this one and gets agressive on the turn, or comes over the top here, you are folding???
This amount leaves you with the toughest decision when BB comes over the top. You would almost get the odds to call on your FD alone, so you are comitted wether you raise this little or bet it all. I prefer to bet it all with two cards still to come. WE are stacking the shortstack, BB should be willing to risk a lot to get to that money, not us.
