bottom two on highly connected board (NL400)
villain is 20/17/1.7 (200 hands),
regular who multitables NL400 and NL600 but there is no special history/reads. Party Poker No Limit Holdem Ring game Blinds: $2/$4 6 players Converter Stack sizes: UTG: $183.62 UTG+1: $274.70 Hero: $684.62 Button: $313.55 SB: $451.90 BB: $400 Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is CO with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $18</font>, 2 folds, BB calls, UTG folds. Flop: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($42, 2 players) <font color="#cc0000">BB bets $30</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $120</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises all-in $352</font>, Hero? the problem is, most of his range has me crushed (except for OESDs and TPTK). so my questions are: 1. how to best avoid this ugly spot i'm in now? 2. once in this ugly spot - call or fold? |

Call the flop lead. [/ QUOTE ] ok, suppose i call and the turn doesn't improve my hand but also doesn't complete possible straights (eg. 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]). villain bets $75 call again? and on the river? how big does villain need to bet so we can let it go? |

[/ QUOTE ] Then you have a similar decision that you have on the flop, except you probably have a better idea if villian is able to fire 3 barrels with a missed draw or not, and have timing tells and some other information. Also, he gives up alot if you are ahead. On the flop if he has top pair and an open ender, you are basically a coin flip, and most of the time he has you crushed. On this board, I think its pretty bad to raise the flop unless you have a read such that you would be willing to call a shove. In this case I think the flop is a fold. |

They have it right. Calling the flop is fine, not a spot to play a huge pot on the flop. Obvious fold once he shoves $350+.

Yeah I really hate raising the flop. Call and re-eval on the turn.
