Extremely thin PL flop call

I dunno · #1 07-08-2007, 04:28 PM

UTG $82
Hero (Button) $25
SB $7.35

UTG raises to $.50, CO and Hero call, SB raises to $2.75, UTG calls, CO folds, Hero calls.

Flop Q T 9 rainbow with a club.

SB moves all in for $4.60, UTG folds.

SB is a tilting maniac and literally has any four. Make the call with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] getting those odds?

I guess, he can have any 4, I would rr preflop the first time around though. Limp calling is pretty weak.

It seems you need 25% equity on the flop to justify a call. Against any for you will have 35% equity, against a pair 26%. Therefore you should call.

If he's doing this with any four, wait until you have a better opportunity. You don't actually have much of anything on this flop (being *behind* to any four is pretty bad).

I'd reraise him preflop. He's only got 7 bucks.

I didn't limp call, I was on the button, and no I shouldn't have reraised preflop.

Yeah I forgot I could just plug in any four on an odds calculator to figure out if a call would be correct. I was surprised my equity was that high actually.
