PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (7 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com
A4s
SB ($10.40)
BB ($10)
UTG ($3.05)
MP1 ($9.70)
MP2 ($10.70)
CO ($10.60)
Hero (Button) ($18.50)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 4, A
1 fold, MP1 raises to $0.40, 1 fold, CO calls $0.40, Hero raises to $1.60, 2 folds, MP1 calls $1.20, 1 fold

Flop: ($3.75) 8, Q, 5 (2 players)
MP1 checks, Hero bets $3.60, 1 fold

Total pot: $3.75 | Rake: $0.15




Preflop I think villains are folding here ALOT. I was VERY surprised to so see a flat from that villain, very surprised.

Anyway, on the flop, if we assume that villain called with ANY PP then our bet is easily +EV in FE. So lets say villains continuing range is QQ+, Or equity vs that hand is 39%. And therefore, if he DOES hold this hand, and shoves over, we have lolez odds to call.

NEWAY who thinks what about what?

Bet less on the flop. Otherwise this is painfully standard.

Probably the only hand you fold out with 3.6 that you don't fold out with 2 is AQ

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

And this is even less likely at these stakes.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

ok.

So then my line w/ the FD is b/f?

BTW, that FD is the only reason I'm questioning this hand.

Assuming a reasonable stack size.

If I re-raise somone pre-flop and flop a nut flush draw, all of my money is going in on the flop if my opponent raises me.

I struggle with this, because I alway get stuck on it being a coin flip to hit your suit. In a multiway pot, I realize it's always +EV to shove here. I'm a little more timid 2-way, but I'll generally put anyone else AI who has 1/2 my stack.

What is a reasonable stack size in this situation? Standard BI? Help me plug a gap, Fnord.

IC, so why bet 2.00 instead of 3.6? Does it matter?

Yea, I figure 12 outs. 9 s and 3 Aces, cause the 4s don't help you. Using the rule of 4, we're ~48%. When I run this through my calc tool, gives me 45% to win if my opponent has flopped any pair.

What am I missing?

That occasionally he has Aces or a set.

How is that encouraging me to shove on the draw?

I'm trying to understand how pot odds and stack size determine this decision in a 2-way pot. Sorry to be dense...I'm posting in BC, after all.
