Ultimate Bet
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50./$1.
10 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is MP3 with :ah :ad
UTG raises to $3.5, 4 folds, Hero raises to $12, 4 folds, UTG calls.

Flop: :3s :6d :7s ($25.5, 2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets $18, UTG raises to $36, Hero calls.

Turn: :2h ($97.5, 2 players)
UTG is all-in $56.8, Hero calls all-in $55.35.
Uncalled bets: $1.45 returned to UTG.

River: :7d ($208.2, 0 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: $208.2)


Results:
Final pot: $208.2

UTG ended up having 66, flopping a set.
I thought he had KK or QQ for sure.

Anyone actually lay this down on the turn???

Not in a reraised pot, with the effective stacks being so short.

Preflop: EP raise/call.
Flop: c/minraise
Turn: Shove

Usually means one thing.
I think what through you off is that someone could raise a low pocket pair UTG because thats reserved for Aces through Tens. More and more people are raising all PPs.
Ship It

The only way I don't lose my stack here is if I know that UTG is capable of raising TT or lower UTG. KK will play this hand the exact same way.

the only hand i fear is some weirdo raising/calling my RR w/ 45s (and we know how likely that is). and he flopped his hand, so, i lose a stack here, and say, "well done." i still have redraws against all else. too often its KK/QQ/AK. cant help but think its +EV to continue playing the hand w/ AA long-term.

however, if you know he is capable of raising UTG w/ <TT, then, you may get away from the hand, but you had better be VERY sure of your read.
LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!
