Stars $10 - jj overpair 3 way

JSampras1 · #1 11-24-2007, 01:14 PM

I'm new to 6 max, so i'm trying to figure out if i played this wrong. I think i should have raised more preflop, but besides that, did i play this wrong?

Limp caller was passive and bad, so i wasn't really worried. Villain who raised is 67%/51%/AF 4 so I am ahead of most of his hands. He didn't reraise the flop, and 445 is pretty good because there's only 1 set and quads possible. It's 3 way and my hand is vulnerable, so i think i have to push here right?

Looks fine to me, I play it pretty much the same way.

yea i agree...a lot of the time i expect them to have lower pair (66-TT) that they dont want to fold yet dont feel comfortable playing against a pf 3b

pf is fine but raise more if UTG will call light.

raise the flop to 3 to charge fd and missed overs.

Since Button is already ai, I play turn the same. You will get calls from a lot of weaker pairs/draws/overcards. I would check here if button had me covered.

I was thinking maybe check, but since the button is all in, it's basically HU and any overcard could beat me. Pot control is pretty much out the window because my stack is less than the pot so it's either push or fold, and i'm clearly not folding, so it had to be a push.

Its impossible to control the pot whith so many bad cards for you to come on the river.
I play the same.
