pasta's bet is screaming overpair. I would call since you have position on the turn, then hopfully a non club falls and you can get all his money
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

If you cold call you can try and get more people in the pot. But then again that might look really fishy.

I'd personally push em. He is definetly calling there.

He's not calling my an all-in reraise of his raise with one pair unless he's real dumb.

Oops, I forgot to look at stack sizes. (I'm mentally in tournament mode still)

I'd definetly re-raise to $80.

That's me every time I sit down at a NL cash game I think I am going to give up on NL cash and stick to LHE and NL MTTs. I have a very costly cash game habit of pushing with hands I shouldn't be and trying to force people off hands too much.

Call, I want to see what the guy who lead into the PFR wants to do. I bet he pushes big.


..and what the fuck is up with posts that don't include reads or at least something like "uhhh.... I just sat down." It's really fucking asinine of you guys to make these kinds of decisions in a big bet game without reads or to expect good advice. There is a shit ton of great information there, but it's a lot less useful out of context.

I thought the best way to get his money was to just call and represent the flush draw. I figured he wouldn't put me on set, two pair or the straight since those hands probably would have reraised on the flop. I wanted him to bet big into me on the turn, then I was going to push all-in.

Then of course the turn put a four card straight on the board and I hardly got anymore money out of him.
