Playalong hand: Top Two Pair in Multiway Pot

aislephive · #1 04-23-2007, 07:29 PM

Initial opener (CO) is 18/12 TAG. My preflop call is a bit loose but he's raising from late position and I have the button with a solid hand, and can take away the pot postflop without hitting a majority of the time, so I call. Both blinds are solid. SB I have at 17/2 over +100 hands, fwiw.

Ok so it's obviously a good flop, but I do have to be weary as their are a few different straight possibilities out there, but nonetheless my hand is strong. CO bets kinda smallish, I'm not sure if he would bet bigger with an overpair, or KQ, or if his small bet is standard with all of his hands. If I raise, what do I do if somebody comes back over the top? What about my other option, which is flat calling. Is the board to coordinated to just call? Any other thoughts appreciated.

raises to 27-33 for straight value against a straight draw

HU, I think a call is fine. As is, raise. If someone comes back over the top, then I think you have a choice to make, but I would guess you get two folds and a call.

If somebody reraises, are you folding? Keep in mind everybody in the hand is taggish.

if someone c/r a bet and 2bet, I fold. If CO b/3b I probably fold.

If I raise to 33 I'm stacking off with 100bb effective.
