I had been raising her quite a lot lately and she seemed to get a bit annoyed about that. She was mostly playing solid hands and had not been folding to my re-raises PF.

JR97 is at seat 1 with 142.65
Eve is at seat 2 with 422.64
Saalis is at seat 3 with 590.30
MASTER9956 is at seat 4 with 414.60
happy777 is at seat 5 with 451.70

JR97 posts the large blind 6.00
happy777 posts the small blind 3.00

happy777: --, --
JR97: --, --
Eve: --, --
Saalis: Qh, Qc
MASTER9956: --, --

Pre-flop:

Eve: Raise 18.00
Saalis: Raise 48.00 to 48
MASTER9956: Fold
happy777: Fold
JR97: Fold
Eve: Call 48.00

Flop (Board: 9c, 8c, 10c):

Eve: Bet 60.00 Normally when they bet like this they have at least something here.. Possible hand range, 88-AA, AK, AQ, if not a set then most likely a high club.

That is. like the worst flop ever with no overcard.
You are behind 88/99/TT/KK/AA and flipping with Ac or Kc.

If you raise, will she push over you with only a flush draw/overs?

Even if you are behind, you have alot of outs if she holds no club.

Maybe try to call her down to the river.

I think you are behind 3/4 of the time. If not, youre marginally ahead or flipping. Not much chance for cheap showdown so.... Fold, type in "how'd you know i had crap?", wait for better spot.[/quote]

at least you had QQ here, seems like one of the easier hands in the 'premium range' to get away from with that flop. yuck. I think you have to look for better spots than that when it comes down to it. But since she's not a big stack, I'm not sure if the value would really be there in calling or RR.

just curious to hear if you thought villian was likely to lead out hard like that out of position on the flop w/ marginal holdings, or if you would expect her to bet a good hand like trips, or AK flush. Is she capable of betting 77 like that (~1/2 pot) as a blocker/information bet?

In answer to your question... it depends...
