FlyingSaucy
Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
4 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $143.80
Button: $42.65
SB: $165.15
FlyingSaucy: $49.85

Pre-flop: (4 players) FlyingSaucy is BB with 4 3
UTG folds, Button calls, SB calls, FlyingSaucy checks.

Flop: 6 5 K ($1.5, 3 players)
SB bets $2, FlyingSaucy raises to $7, Button raises all-in $42.15, SB folds


What do you do here? Here's my thinking. The limp preflop could mean anything, although any Ah is likely to raise preflop. I've got a made flush with only 2 outs to the straight flush assuming I'm beat. I figure if he's got a lone heart, he's got 4 less outs than he thinks he does because 2, 3, 4, and 7 are dead. He could be making this play with a slow played AA I suppose, possibly with the Ah. It's $35 more to call. I don't have much of a read on the player, seemed fairly tight, normal player.

Also, was my flop raise good?
Thoughts?

Button: $49.25
SB: $21.35
BB: $37.35

Pre-flop: (4 players) FlyingSaucy is UTG with 7 6
FlyingSaucy raises to $2, Button folds, SB calls, BB folds.

Flop: 5 T 2 ($4.5, 2 players)
SB checks, FlyingSaucy checks.

Turn: T ($4.5, 2 players)
SB checks, FlyingSaucy bets $2.5, SB calls.

River: 8 ($9.5, 2 players)
SB checks, FlyingSaucy bets $6


Poorly played on the flop no doubt. I'm interested in your thoughts on the river bluff against someone who check/called a ~1/2 pot bet on a slightly scary turn. Is this a good or bad spot to be pumping my initiative?

I like Hand 1 if u called

I dont like Hand 2, a calling station like this will probably not fold a mid pp or a low pair on a board like this for only 6 more. My standard line with your hand is to bet the flop and probably give up if called.
