skipping the value raise on the flop
6/12 at Borgata, passive, somewhat loose.
3 limpers, I limp in CO w/ Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], button calls. 6 players, 6.5SB. flop J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] BB bets and gets 3 callers. I call. I have only Button to protect my hand from. In order to have value in the raise I have to have the best hand right now. If I don't have the best hand, I have very small equity given all the draws out there and very few cards can help me. Seems like half the deck is bad, so I wait for the turn. I believe this situation is similar to playing overpair in SSHE. Ed recommends raising for value w/AA, but to wait for the turn w/TT overpair on a low draw flop that has been bet into and got lots of callers. |

Re: skipping the value raise on the flop
You don't necessarily need to have the best hand to make the raise worth it. It sounds like there are probably at least a couple of players drawing very slim. Their dead money could make it worth it for you, even if you're not sure you're best.
But I think I agree with your call. Like you said, you're not going to protect your hand and there's a ton of dangerous cards that can come. I like the call/re-evaluate on turn line. |

Re: skipping the value raise on the flop
raise preflop, id probably raise flop too, a lot of drawing hands are paying you off here and then if u get c/r on turn u can easily fold.

Re: skipping the value raise on the flop
Seems fine, you can't know whether you're actually ahead, or drawing to a 3 outer yourself (or even dead). Preflop raise with QJo is silly; with QJs it's probably ok.

Re: skipping the value raise on the flop
Turn was a second club rag. It's checked to me, I bet. Button and BB call.
River is a club rag putting a BD flush. Checked to me, I value bet. Button calls w/T8o and MHIG. YAY! |
