    Default Interesting hand from live $400 FO

    Level 4: 100/200

    Effective Stacks
    Player A: 8900 (UTG+2)
    Player B: 8000 (UTG+3)


    UTG+1 limps as does Player A with 55. B raises to 750. It is folded around to A who calls.

    Flop(2000) Q92 rainbow

    A checks, B bets 1625 and A thinks for a little while and calls

    Turn(5250) 5 completing the rainbow

    A bets out 1600 leaving over 4500 behind. B has 5600 total at this stage.

    What do we think of A weak lead on the turn?
    Any comments on the rest of the hand appreciated.

    Do you mean this is a monotone flop? A rainbow flop is when it has 3 different suits, ie no flush draws, so you cant really complete a rainbow except by adding the 4th suit. Is that what you mean?

    I think we can safely assume this is what he means.


    A's call on flop is thin. I could see leading out or CR, call is eh.

    I don't care for the weak lead unless B has been seen going over top of similar bets before this, especially if A has floated hm a couple times. If we check he should commit himself with any kind of hand, this play may help him fold a weak Q or TT/JJ.

    Plus, if he checks behind you can make the same weak lead on river.
