I chase one villain out with the weak top pair by representing a monster and get the guy with the flush draw to call. All with my lowly pocket 5s.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 6 handed) FTR Hand History Converter
CO ($25.55)
Button ($109.40)
SB ($83.07)
BB ($85.12)
UTG ($40.80)
Hero ($185.97)
Preflop: Hero is MP with 5 , 5 . SB posts a blind of $0.50.
1 fold, Hero calls $1, CO calls $1, 2 folds, BB checks.
Flop: ($3.50) 4 , 6 , 8 (3 players)
BB bets $2, Hero raises to $6, CO calls $6, BB folds.
Turn: ($17.50) 9 (2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks.
River: ($17.50) A (2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks.
Final Pot: $17.50
Results in white below:
Hero has 5d 5h (one pair, fives).
CO has 3c Jc (high card, ace).
Outcome: Hero wins $17.50. |

| This is something I like to do occasionally. Players betting out of the blinds generally have extremely weak hands that can't stand much pressure, so you can often raise them with anything, as long as they're capable of folding a pair. |

This is why I pot it out of the blinds, reguardless of what I'm betting.
Who likes a river bluff here? I find a fair amount of 6 max players will pretty much auto-bet when checked to twice. |
