Re: 5/1 OOP Floating with Gutty on New Site
are we thinking he won't think we're calling weak because we'll never call with a draw we'll always be shoving this flop?
or is this just a disgusting flop to float on because we never have anything when we call here? |

Re: 5/1 OOP Floating with Gutty on New Site
On this flop I'm never just calling with JJ+ either..I shove.
So if I continue with this T9s, I would shove. |

Re: 5/1 OOP Floating with Gutty on New Site
Hmm, in a vacuum I think shoving is far superior here, but I don't mind the float for balance. You just need to make sure this is sometimes an overpair and sometimes a set, as well.

Well, once he calls the ambitious bluff shove on the river in this hand, sets and overpairs.

Mind you, I shove the turn, personally.

Re: 5/1 OOP Floating with Gutty on New Site
Given your preflop play you must push the flop.

Re: 5/1 OOP Floating with Gutty on New Site
I think a push is much much better than this. He may double barrell bluff and you've just thrown money away. He may hit his overcard. I can't see many advantages to be honest.
And I think you should push this flop once you've called preflop. |

Re: 5/1 OOP Floating with Gutty on New Site
Well, it wouldn't be usual for me to do this, but against certain opponents who 3-bet light and get aggro postflop I might call behind with a set on this board hoping he puts me on a draw and shoves a blank turn. I don't know, though, this board would kind of suck to play that way with a big hand, but generally speaking at least I like to have a lot of lines available to me in big pots, and I can imagine some people could work floating into their game pretty effectively here.
