Message: [QUOTE="primrose, post: 6929555, member: 1036998"] This was another hand played in a Casino. I felt like I didn't really know what I was doing here; I don't have a good mental model of hand strength in cases where several people limped. Hero is in the SB with :6c4: :3c4: . Lojack and Hijack (=Villain) limp. Hero limps. BB calls. (Pot=4BB.) [B]Flop: :6d4: :4d4: :6h4: . [/B]Hero checks. BB checks. Lojack checks. Villain bets 3BB. Hero calls. BB and Lojack fold. (Now headsup with Pot=10BB; hero is OOP.) [B]Turn: :7d4: . [/B]Hero bets 3BB. Villain calls. (Pot=16BB.) [B]River: [/B]:jc4: . Hero checks. Villain checks; mucks. So [B]Preflop[/B], I don't have a calling range from the SB if I'm first in or if someone raised before me, but I do like calling when someone else limped before me and I have a suited hand. In this case two people limped, which should make the call even better; seeing the flop has to be worth half a BB. On the [B]Flop, [/B]I almost never open when I'm not the preflop aggressor, so I didn't here. When Villain bet, I thought at the time that I should probably raise but somehow rationalized a call just because it felt safer. But my guess is still raising. The [B]Turn [/B]is where I'm really lost because I think a flush is likely. My thought process was, if I bet small and Villain has the flush, they'll raise me and I can fold, whereas if I check, they could bet with any 4 or pocket pair or even a high diamond. So I bet small. But man, I have no idea. On the [B]River [/B]I was still afraid of the Flush, so I just checked. Probably should have bet here? In general, I find these much more difficult to think about than heads-up pots. People in this casino generally limp very wide especially if people limped before them, so Villain could have almost anything initially. But idk what hands they would stick around with. [/QUOTE]
