I dont like that, since there's little/no chance utg will fold on the flop so your just scaring away potential callers by raising.
and not to be result oriented, but it looks like you could have stacked him by calling. folding wouldn't really be bad either.
btw, it helps if u remove the rest of the stuff after the main decision, so ppl dont have results influencing their reply.

I might be wrong, but he is getting 4.1:1 on the call (for the last $53.25), so I don't think THAT is so bad--isn't the FD about that to come in? UTGs initial overbet of the pot says he wants to win right there and that he doesn't want a call. Mathtematically, calling (or raising) the first overbet seems to be the mistake here. I can't think you stack him if you smooth call and hit. Not with the overbet saying he's vulnerable. So it comes down to push or fold and I think folding is better.

cardsman: I think everyone's saying fold to the $25 flop overbet. Because once villain pushes hero's getting 4:1 to call and is only a 1.6:1 dog to an overpair, so that's as easy as it gets.

I fold to the flop overbet, without some weird read that he over c-bets whiffed flops multiway. Raising/pushing flush draws depends on fold equity and it doesn't look like you have any.

Think through post-flop. You stuck how much money into the pot post-flop to win how much money?

it's o.k. but not spectacular or anything since villain usually shows up with a big pair here. Most likely are AA/JJ because of your cards.

You're never gonna be way ahead but almost never be way behind either and this will give you a gambly image so I don't mind it.

when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

It's bad because

a) you're behind UTG and he's not folding

b) there's little invested and a lot behind

c) if you get two callers you could be drawing stone dead

fold to flop bet or raise all/in to maximize FE (sometimes, against nitty opps) If you get called, suck out, then do the same when you flop straight.

Against your opponent's range and flop over-bet I really like the min-raise here and think it's a far stronger play than a shove for a lot of reasons.

agree, now find someone who isn't a total idiot to make FE-based plays against; good play vs decent opponents

also, chat is funny

My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

I may be clouded by the post-read effect that he will happily get it all in with QQ on this flop. You min/raise and he shoves, you fold?

If you min raise and he pushes the pot would be

$15+25+50+25+78= $193
You would have to call $78 into $193. You need 2:1 to call here so the math says yes.

How about preflop? I would bet $10 and fold if UTG raises. If UTG just calls then flop could be easier to play.

Whether or not you fold or raise to the overbet is read dependent. It does look like a scared bet so maybe. If you decide to raise then I agree that a minraise is a stronger looking raise than a push since it looks like you want callers. I really dont think youre folding anything better than JJ here against most players at these stakes. I would have thought a crying call with QQ would be the norm.

gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

bigspenda73: But how much did you win?

I think everyone is thinking at least 1 level deeper than me.

You have a non-nut f/d on drawy board. Villian over-bets. To me, he is "protecting his hand from draws". Either you should fold (because you are sure he will call any raise, and your implied/pot odds are not there), or raise to get him to fold.

I can see that a non all/in raise may spook a thinking player... but not into folding. Ah! Maybe you get a free card on the turn? Kinda turns your hand face up though.

he has overcards and pot odds are too good to fold.
