Im not a huge fan of putting 150 in pf here but Im making the call based on the action, but I am folding it on the flop for the reasons little john mentioned

[ QUOTE ]
after limping, i happily call that preflop raise with your stack of 1735. button and sb are going to reraise/push preflop about never. assuming one of them call another 120, you are getting really good odds on your set. plus with the pot being so big and so many opponents, you will stack someone just about ever time you hit a set and sometimes you will stack two opponents if the board is right.

just check/fold flop. the preflop raiser is c-betting into 3 opponents, he will have an overpair a lot plus you still have button to deal with.

[/ QUOTE ]

I agree as well, your only looking for the set on the flop, as played. Check/fold the flop. The implied odds leave the call as a 3 to 1 call right? I dont remember the numbers...

I think a better question is what the hell does the BB have to take that line?

I'd probably call pf but flop is instafold. So many guys it is hard to be ahead on the flop, and what are good turn cards? You have reverse implied odds on the flop.

k, I agree with most of you (call pre / fold flop) but ...

If there was nobody behind and I was only HU, I think the call is good on the flop, getting 4:1 on his small c-bet as most vilain don't fire a second bullet unimproved here and AK / AQ is probably close to half his range.

i'd fold preflop too, but if the raise was to like 120 i would definitely call, so i suppose it's close. and if there was more than just one caller before me, then i would be much more inclined to call.

Also RPatterson : I have no reverse implied odds as I don't plan to put any other chip in the pot unimproved. And I like your Curtains avatar. Reason behind ?
