Re: Set mine in multiway pot
Taylor,
Thanks for taking your time to post this, as it is a super common situation that many people(in your opinion) play wrongly. What pair would be big enough for you to call here, and how deep would stacks be, optimally? By your logic, it seems as though 99 and 22 would be a nearly identical hand here(the exception being that we won't get stacked set under set vs. the bb as often). Not trying to be sarcastic in the least - this is a situation that I never got completely clear on in my transition from limit to NL. I also assume that you are folding 89s here? Or would you prefer a suited connector to a tiny pair in this spot. Would love to hear anyone's insight here. Thanks for any help! James |

Then again, you get to semibluff when you flop something, so you're not solely relying on stacking someone to break even.

[/ QUOTE ] you can't have it both ways. youre "putting him on AA so you can flop a set and stack him always so ur pf call is breakeven" or youre "putting him on AA and going to semibluff him off of it when he's already got half his stack in!" mathematically this is a clear fold but it's certainly not an egregious mistake and maybe gives you more of a gambly image. 98s is far worse of course |

Re: Set mine in multiway pot
Just to clairfy:
Are we folding because the reverse implied odds negate the juicy PF pot odds? |
