In Playing with MP I had him labeled as Tight Passive

Absolute Poker 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (5 handed) converter

Preflop: Fortune500 is SB with K, 9.
MP calls, Button calls, Fortune500 completes, BB checks.
Loose call here completing the blind, but most of the players at the table were remarkably soft.

Flop: (4 SB) 4, Q, J (5 players)
Fortune500 checks, BB bets, MP calls, Button calls, Fortune500 calls.
Gutshot draw, bet from a known bluffer, backdoor flush draw, and an over. Not a GREAT call here, but it's passable given the previous action at the table. The call in front from MP worriies me more than the bet.

Turn: (4 BB) T (5 players)
Fortune500 checks, BB bets, MP raises, Button calls, Fortune500 3-bets, BB folds, MP calls, Button folds. My money card. The flush isn't there, and no one raised preflop, so I think I've got the nuts here, at this point. I have MP on Two pair.


River: (13 BB) Q (3 players)
Fortune500 bets, [color:#CC3333]MP raises[/color], Fortune500 calls.

Alright... The Paired Queen scares me. I bet out, not expecting to get called. MP who I had a decent amount of respect for, reraises me after my show of strength on the turn. Warning bells go off in my head that he might have the boat. Was I wrong to call here, or should I have raised?

Final Pot: 17 BB

Results in white below:
Fortune500 has Kc 9c (straight, king high).
UTG doesn't show.
MP has 4c Td (two pair, queens and tens).
Outcome: Fortune500 wins 17 BB.

I think you have to call that here. He's hoping that the Queen scares the piss out of you and he's able to take down the pot right there, and he almost got his wish. Good call.

Not a punk at all. I see 7SB in the pot by the time it gets to you; would call it every time versus a known bluffer (i.e. someone I can pwn very much on later streets if I improve)

completing the blinds with k9s is NOT loose at all, its a standard play, folding would be a big mistake imo.

K9s out of the blinds isn't too bad, but it's on the low end of what I like to call with here. No raise in front makes it an okay play.

UG, of course I have to call. My question, though poorly worded, is should I have reraised here?

Uh, my bad

Raising wouldn't get rid of anyone, u could probably do it for value, but you are totaly out of position. I think its one of those borderline hands. I would probably prefer calling.



ignore my spelling mistakes, if I made any

Raise. If he has the boat, good for him. Your straight is still good here alot of the time.
