Two borderline hands I\'d love opinions on (25nl)
Hand 1
Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.10/$0.25 Blinds - 9 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter) SB: $27.85 BB: $7.20 UTG: $28.60 UTG+1: $30.50 MP1: $15.10 MP2: $6.25 MP3: $25.00 CO: $7.90 Hero (BTN): $25.35 Preflop: Hero is dealt J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (9 Players) 2 folds, <font color="red">MP1 raises to $1.00</font>, MP2 folds, MP3 calls $1.00, CO calls $1.00, Hero calls $1.00, 2 folds <font color="blue"> Positional advantage gives me enough reason to easily call these limps, see a flop. I don't feel 3 betting is viable with this weaker hand </font> Flop: ($4.35) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (4 Players) <font color="red">MP1 bets $2.50</font>, MP3 calls $2.50, CO folds, Hero calls $2.50 <font color="blue"> This is a questionable call, reasoning at the time was we're reasonably deep, and turn could make or break the hand. I felt it was worth sticking around in a marginal position to see what happened. Spew? </font> Turn: ($11.85) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players) <font color="red">MP1 bets all-in for $11.60</font>, MP3 calls $11.60, Hero ???? <font color="blue"> Realistically I'm drawing to the flush here, I can't see an A or J winning it for me. MP3 has $9.90 behind after this call. Correct to draw? (My maths is 7 clean outs (non pairing hearts) and 2 possibles, so I'll work off 8, 17.5% of winning. Assuming I win MP3's stack as I can't see him laying it down to a heart pot odds show $11.60 to win $44.90 (inc villians stack) or 25% equity required to make the call (or have I answered this myself). Do you???</font> Hand 2 Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.10/$0.25 Blinds - 7 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter) Hero (SB): $24.75 BB: $25.00 UTG: $16.75 UTG+1: $4.65 MP: $47.35 CO: $48.85 BTN: $47.80 Preflop: Hero is dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (7 Players) UTG calls $0.25, UTG+1 folds, MP calls $0.25, 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1.50</font>, BB calls $1.25, 2 folds Flop: ($3.50) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players) <font color="red">Hero bets $2.75</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to $5.50</font>, Hero calls $2.75 Turn: ($14.50) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players) Hero checks, <font color="red">BB bets all-in for $18.00</font>, Hero ????? <font color="green"> Villian is running 45/14/11 over 60 hands </font> Has the king really helped the villian here? I can't see him playing this massive shove assuming he has just connected with his hand. I doubt he is paranoid enough about a back door spade flush draw to protect so much. Air / draw / non-king enough to call or you just can't risk it with the pot odds? Any flames / helpful criticism on both hands would be greatly appreciated. I felt they were close situations that may come up again, so its worth getting feedback on. Thank you. |
