Message: [QUOTE="shwingzilla, post: 379202, member: 9429"] I'm actually going to agree with you, but the situation was interesting to me, so here's it more in depth. His supposed big re-raise is actually not all that large, in fact it is just above pot size (by 50 if my math is right). It's a bet just large enough to get rid of flush/straight chasers. So I would say he has a Queen or a Ten, but not both. The player could be making it on a flush or straight draw, but I think that is less likely. Obviously if he's making it on a flush or straight draw, you fold. If he has Queen anything (besides ten or queen) your pot odds are just about the same as your odds to call. Ten anything (besides queen or ten) you are ahead in the hand. My only problem with this example is why am I betting post flop 400? the pot is almost 2000 chips. Every hand except absolute crap has to call here (1:7 pot odds), so I'm not getting any information with this bet. And I want at least one hand to fold, I don't want to be chasing a draw, even a good one, when there two other players in the pot with me, and the pot is already so large. (specifically I want to get out any other chasers, and hands like JJ, Tanything, 99 etc) I would bet about 1000 here (or raise all in, depending on how big my stack is). This is half pot, so you'll get rid of a lot of threats, in fact you will likely take down the pot right there. The only hands that dominate you at this point are QT, QQ, and TT, and you've got a coinflip with JJ, KK, and AA. Are you all that worried about your opponent possessing one of six possible hands that could beat you? (the pot odds are hugely in your favor with JJ,KK, and AA anyways). [/QUOTE]
