With $75, you can just get a keg. If you add the Sklansky bucks from not calling down to at least seventh, that's, like, five kegs.

In other words, you should skip your one measly beer and throw a party.

You're getting 20:1 on 4th.

This is a weird question, but in the actual hand, what would you do if you caught an Ace on the river? I would hate to fold, but I don't see how you can call. If you make a flush you can tell yourself that he's got Aces and Jacks and call. If you make trips then you have to give him credit for the most overplayed KK ever.

Hey Rory,

Sounds like N is the bring in and D is player 3 if my reads are right, lol.

If player 3 is N, I wouldn't be worried much at all about her holdings. I don't know what her mindset was at the time but she is capable of being very stubborn on 3rd and 4th streets with marginal holdings.

Fwiw, I think I play the hand the same way as you. I might just call 4th and pop 5th to force the bring-in out. The bring-in (if N) will fold any 1 pair holdings or worse and even most draws in that spot. If she calls or if player 3 re-raises, I'm probably done with the hand.

Tony

What do you have to beat? Do you think you have a 20 to 1 shot of pegging a card that makes you ahead on 5th. Ealry errors compound and make you take the hand too far.

We've told seat 3 that we've got split Aces, he doesn't seem to care.

Food for thought - Level 3 thinking - I am willing to 3-bet 3rd street to represent a hand that can beat Aces if I am fairly positive my opponent has precisely that hand. I will only do this against tight thinking players who can find a fold by 5th street.

With that in mind, is Rory getting played?

This type of line is more likely a HU play. Since the pot is multiway, it's more likely our opponent is extracting value from a hand that an beat split Aces.

You are in call down mode. Now run off a flush.

As I told Andy earlier via PM, I need to look at my own game then because if Andy was the (xx)9 hand and I held Aces... I can find a fold. But thats not the focus of this thread, so lets get back on track.

Ah, you need to look at more than that as Rory is getting 20:1 or so on forth, WAY more than enough to call if you showed me 999.
