5$: Good odds but nothing hit on the flop, should I call?

[DonLigretto]

Hi

What do you think about this hand? Pot odds are quite good, but is it worth it to invest here more chips? I tend to fold such hands, because usually they mean trouble, but what would you have done?

Wow, why did you not raise pf ?? I make it 250 pf or maybe 300 to encourage a push from BB w/ Ax.

As played, you probably have 3xQ,3xA,4xK = 10 outs. Odds to improve on turn are 10x2 = 20%.
Odds offered by pot: 100-to-400 or 20%.

I'd rather not invest money when I'm behind (in sng's drawing sucks), although (asuming villain only has 1 pair) you are getting the correct price to look at the turn card.

fold looks good, I'm not going to be comfy when a spade hits on the turn or any rag, from the looks of sb he might be betting his draws or already has some piece of the flop, very draw heavy, i don't think an A or Q would give you the best hand.

[DonLigretto]

Ok so you would raise pf and fold on the flop? I guess I've become too tight, I should raise with AQ in late pos. then

I don't mind going all in preflop, really. 15 BB is just my limit, I think.

I like a push preflop
If we decide to open with t250, we must call a push, I think
I fold flop

I would call here. Its possible sb is taking a stab at the pot and you have a good number of outs to improve. If you miss, you can still get away from the hand relatively cheaply and still have some chips to play with. I dont think pushing PF is a good idea considering how many players are left and the blinds not being THAT high to where you need to panic. Granted you do want to win but i dont think you need to race right now. I think the best course of action would have been a raise PF but that is besides the point.

Call

Ugh, what's the point of raising the flop ? You think he's stabbing with nothing ? It's a $5, he's def calling with a J and probably also with a T. If you think that's all he's got then calling would be okay as you're getting the right price.

I just don't like investing alot of chips with a straight and a pair draw.
