Default 3 way FD

In the bb with 2 suited. SB and BTN are in the hand.

Flop comes 2 of my suit, one over card and a paired board. SB bets. I call since a raise, if I knock out BTN would no longer be for value.

BTN 2-bets, SB insta-3 bets, I call for same reasons above. BTN makes it 4.

Turn does not improve my hand and the SB bets.

If I know the BTN will only call, this is a clear call. However, this is not always the case in this situation. Many times these two guys will get into a pissing match on the turn. The action from the SB screams "I have a minimum of trips, perhaps a boat." The action from the BTN could mean the same thing, PLUS a FD.

Players are aggressive, but not stupid.

What are your considerations?

If we knew this was getting capped on the turn, is a fold correct?

this post would be a lot easier to read/respond to if there were actual cards, rather than abstract descriptions.

i'm not folding the turn for 1 bet, especially since people can go nuts on the flop and then get a little more serious on the big bet street.

if the turn comes back to you for 2 cold, you might be able to fold, but it's hard to say because WHAT CARDS ARE ON THE BOARD AND HOW BIG IS THE POT?

I don't have the actual hand. It was from Stars and I haven't been ambitious enough to translate my HH's yet. Is there a way to have them saved automatically like with Party and FT?

Anyway... It was an unraised pot preflop, as I remember my cards were crap and I got to see the flop.

So it was 3 sb preflop, 4 when the action got to me the first time on the flop, 9 the second time, 13 the third time and 17 the fourth time. All no brainer calls.

On the turn its 10 BB to me. If it gets capped, I am getting 17:4 or 4.25:1 pot odds. It is about even to make my FD. But, sometimes we make our flush and lose.

This is my dilemma. I have lost a lot of money with FD on the turn when the action is bet, raise, 3 bet, cap and I am along for the ride stuck in the middle.

Do you find that these are quite often cases of reverse implied odds?

Win one of those and you can miss your next dozen draws.

you're thinking a little too far ahead.

this is sort of an RIO situation, but the fact that the pot is so big makes that less important as you aren't worried about extracting *more* value; the value you get from the pot is enough for your draw.

If they're in a pissing match often, they probably have nothing that your flush can't beat.

The problem with hitting the draw, is you are putting in, given the action with 3 people, enough money in on the turn to break even. You really hate to hit your draw on the river, while drawing dead and 2 people are throwing money in the pot as fast as they can. Sure, when you win you win a big pot, but it doesn't make up for the times that you are drawing dead.

If there were more people in the pot, then I can see it being profitable, but with exactly 3 people, aren't we in a hurt locker if the action doesn't slow down on the river when we hit?

If it gets raised and reraised with us sandwiched, do we bail then? We are getting 15:2 and we aren't completing the action.

Do you know what the odds are of hitting your flush from the turn to the river?
