Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6483464, member: 397965"] Preflop You could rejam here, but for 25BB effective its pretty marginal. I would like that play much more, if you were <20BB effective. For just over a minraise I would also call here. You are getting almost 20:1 in implied odds to setmine, and sometimes you can also do a bit more than that. Flop I guess, its ok to peel here for a 1/3 pot C-bet, but if I was busy with other tables, I might just let it go and be done. A high boards do favour the preflop raiser, and the problem with a small pair is, you almost never improve. Turn You picked up a gutshot, so now you have 6 outs when behind. But even so this is a bit iffy facing a 40% pot bet. One of the issues is, that if you improve, there will be a 1-liner to a straight on the board. So how easy is it going to be to get paid out of position? And if you make a set, is your hand even good, when any 5 how has a straight? There is not much upside in continuing with a combination of a bad made hand and a bad draw, so I would just fold and be done with the hand. You put him to the test to fire two barrels, and if he bluffed you, good for him. River Ac reduce the amount of AX combos, he can have, but it also bring in the backdoor flush. He is betting almost full pot, and your hand is a pure bluffcatcher with no relevant blockers. The average player is not bluffing here 35% of the time, so if I made it this far, I would clearly fold now. Results So he got there with the backdoor draw, and this is part of the problem with continuing on the flop and turn. Even when he is bluffing, he has equity, so sometimes he will get there, and you just end up playing a guessing game out of position for nearly all your chips. Just get out early and avoid the headache. Even folding preflop is much better than, what you ended up doing. [/QUOTE]
