    Default Simple micro hand: Advice pls

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (4 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($4.97)
    UTG ($1.09)
    Button ($6.18)
    SB ($4.20)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with 8, K.
    UTG calls $0.02, Button calls $0.02, SB completes, Hero checks.

    Flop: ($0.08) 8, 3, 5 (4 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $0.14, UTG calls $0.14, Button calls $0.14, SB folds.

    Turn: ($0.50) 7 (3 players)
    Hero bets $0.4, UTG raises to $0.93, Button folds, Hero ????

    As played, should I be folding to this reraise with TPGK?

    it's very marginal... depending on his image i'd prolly call just cuz he's a shortstack and has no money left, and you've already invested so much and even if he has 2 pair, you can suck out

    Besides... I'm a calling station
    My blog/operation where ill gladly discuss all my poker thoughts/hands etc, all welcome: http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...os-192003.html

    betting the turn seems bad given the range of the limpers
    maybe a c/c turn, c/f river?
    as played I think you have to call as you've already put in more than 1/3 of the effective stack here.

    and I'm a newb so wait for real advice dawg, just giving it a go

    wondering where the 3 extra chairs at my 6max table came from
    Good example of why limped hands OOP suck...

    TPGK is not a great hand to play OOP on a drawie board, through multiple streets in the face of aggression...

    These dudes could have almost anything or nothing... but multi-way after your flop overbet and then raising your turn bet should tell you something. There's not much that takes that line that you beat except a bluff -- and there's a lot of stuff that could be limped on that board that hammers your 1 pair.

    You're almost getting 4:1 to make the call and it's the last money that's going in... my guess is your behind more often than not. I'd prolly make the call and hope I'm not drawing dead to the straight AND pop a K or 8 on the river...

    Yep by that point pretty much had to call with those pot odds.

    The play on the PS 2NL 6max tables is ridiculously bad. Villain in this case had A3s.

    I would have folded. But at these stakes, who can tell what you might be up against?
