a recent 2/5 hand
2/5 NL Live.
I raise in EP with KdKc to $25 MP and SB both call. Flop comes 5s7h5h SB checks I bet $85 MP folds. SB c/r to $200 total. We both have ~ $700 behind and at this point and I have little read on villian as we have not played many pots together yet. My concern is what will he do on the turn if I just flat call. I have a hard time believing he flopped a boat otherwise he might flat call and try to trap for more value. I feel that his bet smells more like a draw but I can not allow another card to come off by flat calling. After tanking for a few minutes, I finally fold, and he tells me he had 3h4h. If this was true then we were about 60/40. I decided my decision on the flop was either push or fold and that I could not withstand a big turn bet. If I push, I feel he may only fold only if he has a draw and if he calls I don't like it being nearly a coin flip. I simply don't have enough information. If nothing else, it is pretty hard to push on one pair unless your read is crystal clear. My only goal in a cash game is to make money, so I don't want to take unecesary risks if I can help it. Is my thinking here correct? Thoughts? |

Re: a recent 2/5 hand
you could also call and get it in on a blank, if a scare card comes and he fires re eval and probably muck
