Yes fold, and I prefer a turn check.

I dont know if I could do it mid session, but UTG calls two bets, then suddenly comes alive on the turn, has to be a set or straight. Have to make a tough fold here

[Abramovic]

Bet preflop.

The only thing you beat here is something like 89s (and most would fold that on flop), so a fold is good, but in the game I can almost never fold.

[jd2b2006]

Villain's line on the flop looks like a draw, and then he c/r when one of the draws gets there. It really looks like 87 here, but I doubt I could find a fold at the table. I would just put villain on 98 and push.

Why is a turn check good here?

this is an Instacall for me. If he has a bigger set, then good luck to him. Most players will raise 88 or better preflop. that leaves 55 nd 67 to be what we have to fear. The pot is now very large, and you said no reads.

You have to call this IMO. There will be soooooo many times when you will encounter 2 pair, or top pair and a draw. The pot is now gotten very large, looks like you are gonna play for stacks.

I pray the board pairs on the river and shove. Shoving the turn is not a great idea and I prefer a call here. I could fold this if I saw that UTG was a TAG, but usually you will find he is very often a donkey with a death wish

[MortenTA]

I raise this preflop always

and I dont think I am finding a fold in this hand

[DaveRockNo20]

I prefer a raise with position and 22 preflop.


UTG called and check raised when a draw could be dangerous for him on turn, that look like a big pocket to me. I wanted to call/raise preflop and miss and kind of slowplayed on flop and decided to raise turn cause the straight afraid him.

I'm ready to get staked if he hold 55 or 67 and 88 or 99. We win agaisnt overpairs, 98 9T A9 and maybe others donk hands.

The call is the best play cause we have position and we let him bluff and we call and get paid often enough.


A read would help, but people on party are pretty donky loose aggressive I think.
