playing on a draw ? comments welcome
Hi. Comments welcome on how i played this hand. I was feeling 'fruity' as it was my last orbit so raised with a hand i would not normally. Also the players were all pretty nitty - no pot for the last 2 orbits had gotten to more than 4xBB.
Comments on postflop/turn play welcome. Only read is that the BTN is a pretty solid player, but one who likes to flat call my preflop raises (which aren't [/i] that numerous). Poker Stars - Pot Limit Omaha Cash Game - $0.25/$0.50 Blinds - 9 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter) SB: $27.20 BB: $27.80 UTG: $23.50 UTG+1: $35.25 MP1: $36.30 MP2: $43.10 MP3: $67.20 Hero (CO): $49.25 BTN: $45.10 Preflop: Hero is dealt 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (9 Players) 2 folds, MP1 calls $0.50, 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.25</font>, BTN calls $2.25, SB folds, BB calls $1.75, MP1 calls $1.75 Flop: ($9.25) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4 Players) BB checks, MP1 checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $8.80</font>, BTN calls $8.80, BB folds, MP1 calls $8.80 Turn: ($35.65) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players) MP1 checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $15.00</font>, BTN calls $15.00, MP1 calls $15.00 River: ($80.65) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 Players) <font color="red">MP1 bets all-in for $10.25</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises all-in to $23.20</font>, BTN folds Uncalled bet of $12.95 returned to Hero Pot Size: $101.15 ($3 Rake) MP1 had 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and LOST (-$36.30) [i]Hero had 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (a straight, Five to Nine) and WON (+$61.85) |

I think I like the play on all streets. Maybe I flat call the all in by MP1 hoping to get the BTN to follow suit and pay me as well, but thats not a big deal.
My only question for you now, what do you do if the villain repots the turn on a c/r? Puts you in a tough spot but you still have a load of outs (without knowing he has blockers). The hand looks fine to me, nh, nice pot |

Overall I like how you played the hand, although I probably would've just pushed the turn. The Ace is a great card to represent a set of Aces with and you're not folding 12 outs to a push getting at least 4.25:1 anyways, so maximize your FE.

Re: playing on a draw ? comments welcome
Thanks.
1. I thought about flat-calling on the river, thereby maybe getting something from the BTN. But i knew he would be unlikely to call without the nuts. 2. The check-raise is something that I've rarely come across at .25/.50 - if I was C/R on the turn i'm drawing to really 12 outs? I think if the MP1 pots it i have to call. If the BTN c/raises i may fold. Interesting decision though. 3. i was thinking about pushing the turn A. I would have *normally* been re-popped preflop by any AAxx and as you say i'm not folding here, so perhaps a push would have been good, tho i was wary of the BTN who was capable of flat calling preflop with AAxx. |

Smallish bet on the turn serves little purpose. Just shove. On the river shoving is fine as its very unlikely the button is folding any hand he would call $10 with for $20.

"If the BTN c/raises i may fold"
guess you mean MP, but that's not important.. you should not fold, regardless of the action, especially if the pot stays 3-way.. you have 12 clean outs for the nuts.. |
