Default Re: $50 NLTRN, Ace high on 3flush turn, facing OVB shove

Okay, consensus is a clear fold. I agree.

I called--tilting?--and villain had black J8 for 14 outs (30% equity, LOTS of FE obv).

I called because I was overly optimistic that he was capable of floating on that flop (he instacalled) and shoved pretty fast, and I thought he did not want a call. I figured he had a draw with a heart and was surprised that he had two black cards.

I posted because although I won, I was thinking about the hand afterwards and decided calling was a very bad decision in the long run, and I'm glad you guys confirmed it.

I haven't reviewed the earlier game I played with him, and MAYBE I could pick up a good enough read to call this, but I doubt it. I'm glad I won but not happy that I made a bad decision here.

What do you think of villain's play? It's actually not a bad move (although betting 3/4 pot might be better, unless I have A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or something), given that he has to put me on overcards/pair, right?

thanks guys,

HCL

Hmmm...I like your read, stick to it later and fold. Half pot flop, c/f to his All in.

icarus hits it on the head. i like your read, but it doesn't change the fact there's a pair on the board, potentially a made flush, and you have ace high. unless i'm insanely confident that he'd do this with air more often than not, i think i can get away form this one without losing too much sleep.

double barrel this one is probably the best line, but i am probably too passive to do it after he flat calls my flop bet and a third heart falls out of the sky...
