No doubt, I would never do it vs. donk, 2+2er, or anyone in between, but it seems like you guys like to mix it up against each other sometimes.

Decent odds for what? If they all have draws they're taking each others outs, and you're still a favorite over all of them even if all 4 are in the pot. A, 5, and 6 are the only cards you hate to see. Plus, no one would ever think you had a set playing it this way - though you'd be repping the straight.

Not a line I'd use often, but it's not terrible either.

you're deep enough that there is still room to play. this is exactly like a set on a single suited flop. you do not want to play a huge pot on the flop in a limped pot. you want to see the turn.

i like your analysis though you don't mention what i think phil has when he calls the turn.

[/ QUOTE ]

I figure you'd have to put him on a decent draw or a medium PP (hence his flop raise).

i don't remember how those guys play, but considering they limped then called, i'm assuming they're bad. a bad player is calling any flush draw or any oesd. and what do you mean by taking each other's outs? i would expect 1 of them to usually call with one of these types of draws, and i don't think phil has a draw too often. plus even if a middle caller has no draw, it still makes the hand harder to play correctly if a scary card comes off

Josh I can't put you on a hand. If you had the missed NF draw would you push the river?

[/ QUOTE ]

i dont think that josh bluffs the NFD here because every combo draw missed on the turn and river and thus, if i have a made hand, it looks pretty good. i think that the ONLY hand that im folding that i would have gotten to the river are 35d and 45.

stop giving away these things. sets are invulnerable and any action aside from bet or raise on the flop means you are a pansy.

I love how you keep saying 56. In my book 56 makes the nuts.
