Pocket eights multiway agains btn raiser
Button is a tight player (sees flop 13% and raises about half of the hands he plays).
Is it correct to call him down? Do I fold the flop? turn? river?

Flop good, fold turn. With those raise numbers, at best you're hoping that he bluff-raised with AK. The vast majority of the time you're drawing to two or less outs.

I can dig the flop play, but you're beat on the turn here practically always.
After you check and he bets the river you're beat even more often. |

I would prefer to raise 88 when opening from MP. Many others do not. As played, you did a good job of protecting your hand on the flop.
When the Q comes on the turn, you are behind to about 80% of his pf raising range (TT+, AJ+, KQ), you are ahead of only AK. I agree with the other posters. Fold this turn. |

Re: Pocket eights multiway agains btn raiser
Preflop call is okay, but I'm not a fan of the b/c on the flop. Button is representing strength, probably a high PP, so we have to figure we are beat here. Seeing the flop was a decent move because the pot was big, but I might have considered folding after button's raise also.

Re: Pocket eights multiway agains btn raiser
Preflop is a must raise if you flip a coin and it comes up heads. If it came up tails then a limp is fine.
[censored], I agree with the consensus of the thread anyway so I don't know why I'm posting [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Edit: Oh yeah, now I remember why. I'm a bit leery of the flop checkraise here. Button could have taken a free card if he needed it, and with five players in that would have been a damned good idea. That he bet out anyway suggests that he has at least a pair of Jerks...I'm starting to think we're behind more than we're ahead here unless he seriously autobets any flop after raising. |

grunch-
preflop is okay - you're getting the right odds to call since 2 called behind you. but if they folded, you're HU against tighty OOP. that's concerning. Button seems pretty TA I think s/he would have raised with AK-JJ. i don't see why you would check the flop and then raise against a TA. i'd bet the flop, if button raises, i'd let it go. |

What does the check-raise accomplish here?
