Default 200/400 6789 8b

the game is playing pretty tight on 3rd/pf but very loose after that.

when he reraises 3rd I figure he either has ax4, qq/kk-4 or a 3flush.


xx-2-bringin-raise
xx-3-fold
xx-q-fold
78-6-complete-call
xx-9-fold
xx-9-fold
xx-3-fold
xx-9-fold

7869-call
xx4a-bet

78693-call
xx4a3-bet

78693q-call
xx4a3a-bet


when do I dump this?

Wait, so does he bring-in with a 2 or a 4? Either way I'll assume he's the BI since you said he reraised you.

I'd probably let this go on 5th especially if they're playing tight on 3rd. I definitely dump it on 6th. Your low draw is dubious and you *need* to hit the straight to win half the pot.

It seems a shame to fold when you've caught the case Nine, but I think that fourth, fifth, and sixth are all folds.

I have to think 4th is a peel with all his straight cards live. Granted most any other card will make the hand pretty tricky, especially if Villain bricks.

Man, if you're goin to dump this on 4th, you should probably dump it on 3rd.

Or that the bring-in likes his hand enough to raise. Stealing into a bunch of Nines on third in a tight, high-ante game seems pretty automatic, even with a couple of low cards left.

After dinking around on twodimes some, we're not in as bad shape as I had thought on fourth. I'd still fold fifth.

on fifth: if the opponents' hand ranges really are relatively tight on 3rd then it becomes a neutral EV call i think. a two way hand is coin flip favorite against a buried overpair on fifth and anything else (two pairs, pair + low draw) is pretty much callable on pot odds. the only hand that is wrong to call against is a wheel made in five.

but on sixth i don't think you can fade that; your opponent is looking at a sweet freeroll w/open aces and a probable low made, a nasty 9:1 dog. against aces up, your hand is a 4:1 dog. at worse he has open aces and a low draw and two dimes says you're 3:1 dog. so given your description of tight pregame conditions and range, folding seems correct.

also, there needs to be a haircut/discount on him having one of your fives.
