Default Re: NL50 turn top two and get raised

I've been trying to open up my game lately, and I don't have a problem raising broadways against loose limpers. I normally will raise more than 4xbb+1 oop in this situation. Need reads on button and yourself for the turn. If he plays really straightforward and limps sc's and pp's on the button and normally doesn't get out of line, the turn is a fold.

No need to raise preflop with two limpers, one a calling station. On turn, board is still very dry so he's clearly representing a set or T9 for a straight.

It's possible he has Q8 or Q4 but I would play it conservatively and fold. No shame in check/calling a small river bet though. Turn shove seems unnecessary.

Check call IMO.

If your gonna fire more chips into this pot, i'd prefer a shove now.

And to the OP, Raising this hand preflop, would have saved u this marginal situation.

There are no other real draws out there, so if you have any reads on this guy, it would be quite helpful. The right play for the villain to make with a straight is raise the turn.

However I find most players, would probably call here, its what they do. slowplaying fools [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Button was completely unknown. Since his raise was quite small, I decided to call and see a river.

River: ($26.50) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero ???

Villain has $27.80 left. What do you do? Check-call?
