When is Chasing justified
First Post- This is a live Game question so no converter.
3-Hours into a session, 2-3 $300 max buy-in, 9 handed. Table has three very good players at it (I am including myself), 3 ABC players, and 3 deadfish. I have about $850 in front of me, and have been playing tight-aggressive and getting paid off. CO (about $400) is a very good player and we have been staying out of each others way. UTG- I get pocke 88. raise to $18 and have four callers (3 fish and CO) Flop comes 8d 4d 3d. I fire $40, 2-fish calls and CO min raises to $80. I know he has a flush, probably the nuts (which turn out right), but I continue to call, check call and folded on the river each bet was $40 by the CO (and called by the fishes) I thought the implied odds would pay me off if I filled up, but now I am thinking that if the board paired I would lose the action to make this a good value. Thoughts? |

Why don't you tell us this without results. Put it street by street.

Re: When is Chasing justified
Threads like these (where OP swears he's good and disproves himself through, ironically, the hand in question) put me on severe tilt.
