Default Q7s MONSTER hand

Five players

Hero is in the BB with Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Button raises, SB folds, Hero calls.

Flop: Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Hero checkraises, Button calls.

Turn: Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Hero bets, Button raises, Hero calls.

River: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Hero checks, Button bets, Hero calls.


Who thinks Heros should put in more action somewhere this hand? (no opponent reads)

this always comes up. it's kind of hard to find the 67% w/o adding some pretty weird hands that call the 3-bet and call the river.

P.S. I didn't see the flush draw (that we have one) and I don't think it matters.

Ok so I didn't really play this hand, it was Stoxtrader... directly from the "hands with Stox" section of his book. I tend to agree with Scary Tiger on this one, hence I posted the hand.

you'll get high equity if you include hands like 66, 77, K5o, A5o, K8o, 99, 76, and like every possible flush draw combo. the fact is that these hands don't always play like this, all the worse made hands don't always call down, and having the initiative against certain worse hands matters a lot on the river. if he is raising for a free showdown with AK/AJ/AT, 3-betting is bad because he'd probably value bet a rivered pair, but he could easily fold to the turn 3-bet.

on the other hand, you really don't have to discount AQ, KQ, QJ, QT, Q9, Q8, Q7, QQ, 88, or 55 whatsoever.

Oh is this hand 34 or 35? I remember two back to back hands I thought he played awful.

I haven't read Stox's book. In the games I play, with nothing more than you provide in your original post, I'd say not giving more action is bad. I'm skeptical that not giving more action in an unknown, hypothetical online game, is a good approach regardless.
