Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6757211, member: 397965"] Preflop Given that the bubble is getting close, I dont think, its mandatory to defend in this situation. Being out of position with a hand like this against a player, who can bust you, will generally put you in a lot of tough spots. Not saying that defending is a mistake, but for me I would probably just fold and look for better spots to pick up chips. Flop Great flop obviously, and when he bet so small, I do agree with check-raising. Sizing could be a bit larger though. Turn Obviously its not great, that there is now 3 to a flush. I would not worry about JT though. I dont think, JTo open from UTG, and I dont think, JTs call a check-raise on the flop with just a gutshot. So the only JT, which he can realistically have, is JT of spades. And of course JT of clubs, which is now a straight flush. He could also have QQ though, which is now a boat. My decision here really depends on, how much stack is left. If its less than a pot sized bet, I would just jam and hope for the best. If you are behind to a flush or straight, you are not dead, because you have ten outs to a boat. And you kind of want to charge hands with a single club. But if there was more stack behind, I can see playing for some pot control. River Now the board is dubble paired, so you no longer lose to a straight or flush, but you lose to QX. I think, he can have some QX with KQ being the most obvious, and maybe some AQ also peel on the flop. As with JT, I think, the naked QJ and QT gutshots mostly fold on the flop. And that the offsuit combos are not opened UTG. So I do think, there is a decent chance, you have the best hand. I also dont see him having many hands, that completely lack showdown value. So I dont think, checking induce a lot of bluffs. And for that reason I would make a relatively modest block bet trying to get called by hands like AA or KX. And against an unknown opponent then probably mostly fold, if he jam on you. Spoiler Ok so he had QJ of spades. That makes sense, because he had the BDFD on the flop to go along with his gutshot. And yeah. As I said already, I think, you can bet-fold the river with the main rationale being, that its difficult to find natural bluffs in his range. [/QUOTE]
