I'd avoid setting a heart flush when you can already see 3 hearts on the table before your turn starts.

That said, this is an OK set, with no really big errors in it.

Looks like a missed opportunity to make a FL bid with a Q or KQ up top, IMO.
Also, going for a flush when you already know you're twice blocked is risky.

Holding out for that royal on the draw...

I... don't see any misplays?

What happened here?

This looks OK. 3 to a straight flush can give you some headaches on later streets when you have to decide whether or not to play a :s: that doesn't make the straight flush. Or playing a non-:s: to...

I don't really like it.

You're going to be in trouble hitting 2 pair in the mid with this set. It could make you foul if you can't beat 2 pair on the bottom and you're looking at 77's up on the...

On the set, the Q goes up top. I'd split the KJ85 into J8 on the bottom and K5 in the mid. The plan is to draw a K and a Q and hit 2 pair on the bottom. If the two pair on the bottom comes in...

Like a boss!

Congrats on the double boat!

I'd have played AT9 up top, but it's incredibly unlikely that your 2nd kicker will matter.
The 9 has no value in the mid, anyway.

Why isn't it showing Hero's discard?

You played fine.
I don't see why you played the 3 and discarded the 4 on 7th street.


It's BaldBullBot who laid a stinker.
The bot could have played
JJJ/KKKA5/87654

JJK/AAQ98/222TT
earns 2 more royalties.

When setting a boat, remember that the power is in the 3-of-a-kind part of the hand. Placing 222AA is exactly equal in hand value to 22233. Since only...

Play more aggressively at FL.
You set the Q up top, don't discard a Q on the 2nd draw.

I think you luckboxed some rungood, first of all.

I think your play on 11th street to drop the K and Q on your bottom for the flush was prob the best move, too (I know, I know... FL cards are not...

Your play on 7th street is confusing. You discard a Q, after setting a Q up top for a FL hand.
You play the J to the top, when you could have made pr J's on the bottom.
You played the 6:s: to the...

I never split trips for a 3-flush.

No. You got a difficult hand to play, but discarding the A on 9th street was the right move, and NOT discarding the A on 11th street was good, too.


Looks good.


It's close, but with 2 draws...

Setting JJ in the middle is a low EV play, usually. I see that you're hoping to catch a flush on the bottom, but you're IP, with 3 blockers to your flush already (since you play the J:s: outside the...

I'm not sure there's too much value in a 1 card flush OOP. (~28.5% to catch a flush, assuming you'd play the K:s: up top. I.e. 11 outs over 4 draws where a success means drawing at least 4 outs.)
...

Prob strongest is to play for pair-based hand on bottom, so getting 2 live cards there ASAP is important. Since you're OOP, then all cards are equivalently live.

You're not too worried about...

On 11th street, if you set K's up top, then you have 4 outs to make 2 pair in the mid, and you are good with the 2 outs to trips being covered by the flush on the bottom.

With 6 outs on the final...

It looks marginal. On 9th street, when you decide to take the 2 pr instead of to keep going for the flush, Villain was showing 0 hearts.

When you set the 3-flush, you were between 66% and 85% to...

I was surprised the margin of difference in outcomes was so thin. I think this is partly due to the extremely small number of foul cards left in the deck (only 1 each of A, K, 3).


You may be...

"third draw set"...? Is that what you kids are calling it these days. I'm so out of the loop. :)

On the set: I'd probably play the 3 up top, since Hero is IP and can see Villain has played a pr...

Def playing JJ on the bottom, not splitting JJ's to make pr T's in mid, not setting JJ in mid when I have a free boat on the first draw.

If it was QQT, KKT, the I'd def play the FL pair up top.

The power of pair + kicker to start the bottom should not be underestimated. Sets, boats and quads are much more common in pineapple than other games.
