Call and play poker. A call will scare the [censored] out of the villain, typically.

Sorry Jake, I didn't see that you were OP. I knew I was missing something. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Raise to 30ish. You folded TP + gutshot in position. That's nutty.

So I'm guessing from the responses that both calling and raising are about equally ok. Anybody disagree?

Calling is better for pot control. Sure, I'll hate a 9 and an A will make it very difficult to play but bloating the pot is worse IMHO.

Hell yeah I disagree!!

Raising here is TERRIBLE!!!! 100% spew. Few worse hands call, no better hand folds, and some worse hands (combo draws) might push making us fold the best hand.

I think its very close between call and fold and I think an fold is 100% fine here

I call and see what happens on the turn.

Dont raise here, ever, ever, ever, ever, EVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEER. never.

grando · #18 08-31-2006, 05:28 AM

I fold here

folding here is not weak - this is the definition of reverse implied odds

what do you do when you get 2/3 potted on the 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] turn?

martijn · #19 08-31-2006, 06:25 AM

I"dd call and see what he does on the turn, make use of your position here.

I think, depending on your image, you get calls here from Kx, JJ, and AQ. I think two pair checks here often and if I had to guess, as prev. stated, I'd put villain on Kx. I typically run around 28/23-ish, so I get played back a lot with inferior king hands here, but I definitely concede that in a vacuum call/fold is superior.
