50/100 hand against mahatma at UB

[Kirkrrr]

The one huge problem with this thread - as El D was trying to bring home over and over again - is that you simply can't give a very good answer in a vacuum. What P has and what Hero should have and what they're putting each other on would depend very much on previous history and the dynamics between the two of them. I think if that hand was posted now people would be like "wtf no reads, no history?!? uhh... flip a coin."

When fsuplayer decided to start a 'best of thread' this was the first post I thought of. And the first that made the sticky [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

it seems like one of the most important factors is prahlad's propensity to float hero oop

this is a great hand, i've seen him push huge on the river on complete bluffs, he bets the turn when the 5 hits? real odd unless he doesnt want to give another free card. I've seen him overpush with the nuts also in this spot which makes him so hard to read. I think A TURN RAISE IS MANDATORY!!!

i agree it is a great hand, but I disagree with most peoples opinion that hero should have raised turn against P. Knowing P's inclinations, cold calling could look like jj or qq like some people have stipulated and inspired P to push a big bet on the river into your call. Raising the turn itself is results based, and I don't see a problem with giving P some rope on the turn, shame he hit. I rarely ever post, but this is a great thread
