Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6692805, member: 397965"] Preflop I would definitely also complete Q9o against a limp. The hand is to weak to raise out of position, but you are getting a great price, so you can complete anything but junk. When BB puts in a small raise to 3BB, you are also getting the price to call and see a flop. However had he gone any larger, I would just fold. Flop Great flop for you obviously, and I would also check-raise. Turn Its important, that we plan a hand already on the flop. So before even making the check-raise on the flop, we need to know, how we are going to play the rest of the hand on a clean runout. And if you wanted to make it a 2-street hand, then I think, your check-raise on the flop needs to be larger. And I do think, I slightly prefer that line over making it a 3-street hand. The problem with 3 streets is, your hand is strong but also very vulnerable, and a lot of rivers are going to be very tough for you. An A, K, J or T will potentially give him a better two pair. A or K potentially also top set. K or 8 will complete the OESD, and finally any club will complete the flush. So you basically have to dodge more than half the deck, or you are going to be in an at least someone tough spot on the river. So I actually think, this is an ok line, especially when the turn card is such a perfect brick. But you should have set yourself up better for this by going larger on the flop. If nothing else this means, you win that much more, when he fold to a turn jam. Which I expect that he does a decent chunk of the time. But in general thats ok, because unless he has exactly top pair, he has at least 8 outs on the river. So protection certainly has value especially in a tournament. [/QUOTE]
