[Zaphrous]

Needed to post this to see what response there is. didn't have much of a read on the villian as he had not been at the table long and only played a few hands that he never showed down. Comments on all streets welcome.

I would put him all in on the turn (he only has like 7 bucks left after the turn raise) and if u dont put him on KT or 7T (highly doubtful) then u got a few out to get the backdoor nut flush.

[jdefoe]

well, considering you have the nut flush draw at this point, and the full house draw, or you could have the best hand, you should put him all in. That's what I would do.

Hmm, lets do the math. If he has the flush already: (12 hearts- 2 in his hand - 3 on the board - 1 in your hand = 6)

2 aces+ 2 tens= 4 outs. You have 10 outs all together (assuming that you fear the flush)

52-4-4-10= 34/10 = 3.4-1

He has about 7 bucks left. So, 15+7= $22 to try to win the $67.75 in the pot right now. You're getting a good price, so you may aswell push.

I assume he doesnt have a T since I dont think he would have called a raise with a T in his hand with other callers. I probably put him on KQ offsuit, since his hand wasn't really strong enough to raise on when he first entered the pot. He would have probably raised with AK. However, I wouldnt count out the possiblity of him playing J10

[jdefoe]

no more ideas on this hand?

[GGrey]

I find a fold here. However there are a couple of other points to address in the hand altogether.

OP, you should be reloading very frequently, so you can get the maximum value from your monsters. Usually I reload after every round of the blinds, and after every pot I willingly enter. Secondly, raise more preflop. 3xBB + 1BB/limper, so your preflop raise should have been in the neighborhood of $3.

Flop action:
The good: You made a great flop raise into a weak bet into you.
The bad: MP2 bet into the pf raiser, and called his raise.

Turn Action:
The Bad: MP2 commits the rest of his stack into the pot when flush and boat draws hit.
The Awful: You still have a one pair hand, may be drawing to 4 outs, and getting essentially worse than 3:1 odds.

Foldamundo.

Thanks for all the replies

With the preflop raise and the flop raise that he called I had to believe he had me beat and I folded.

He didn't show but said later he had KT for the boat.

If I could have put him on the flush only I think I call but But I was worried about the Boat with his calls.

Later on I saw him make some serious bluffs against some small stacks that got called and shown but I don't know if he was doing that here as I could stack him.

Thanks

Raise more preflop. After that, I'm probably pushing the turn.
