Default Re: flush standard situation

Bet/fold the river? As in, bet $2 and fold to a raise? Because you can't possibly bet/fold for any other amount given that the pot is bigger than remaining stacks.

Just shove. Money should have gone in already if he could have a full house here, so you're basically freerolling, and shoving looks bluffier as if you were on a missed draw.

Less than 5% chance villain has you beat, so I don't know why you're concerned about check-raises.

I'd probably shove, but a smaller bet is probably also ok.

Fold preflop.

[/ QUOTE ]

I propose a new forum rule where people are banned for an hour or two when they tell hero(s) to fold preflop when it is painfully obvious that Hero is stealing, unless they provide some amazing insight as to why folding would be better.

You can argue a lot about what hands are better than others to steal with, but there are tons of even less marginal hands than this that are +EV to open with in the CO.

I'd shove. I think they would bet a fullhouse on the river and would not have been passive so far with a better flush.

I like this reasoning.

Hmm, I thought that opening a hand as weak as J7s from the CO in an average SSNL game of today was -EV. Apparently this isn't true?

how are comments like these helpful at all in a position-dependent, largely postflop game?
