What's next? 2 options: Check or all-in. Checking is tryng to say that you had a hand like AK, but having been called twice, you are worried that one of your opponents has a Q. This is usually true, so the only benefit to checking is letting a flush possibly catch a 2nd best hand. I think all-in is the best move, though, and if you lose to Qx on the river or AQ, then so be it.

What's next? You left yourself with only enough chips to push (which you have to do). There's over 2300 in the pot and you have 1800. Are you going to fold a boat? If one of them has AQ you were getting called on a (correct) flop push anyway, but at least you would have gotten it all in with the best of it (which you may still have). ------ brewmaster at brewcam dot com "Once in awhile you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right" -RH ---- * kill-files, watch-lists, favorites, and more.. www.recgroups.com

I would have led out on that flop. Many people would just see that as some sort of continuation bet, even though its not. I would have made it a big bet too, a lot more than what your raise was. I am not afraid of people folding. WIth that flop I would assume/hope that someone has the ace in their hand. If they do they wont fold. Bad players can never fold aces. Your checkraise isnt a bad play either, but my raise would have been all in. With the previous action you would probably get called.

If the preflop raiser has TPGK, he'll likely raise you, allowing you to move him all-in and get a call. If you do go for the checkraise, you need to raise more here. There was 500 in the pot preflop, and there's 1000 in the pot when the action gets back to you. Your opponents have 1475 and 655 remaining, and a pot sized raise would be to 1500. I'd raise at least enough to put the short-stack all-in, so pop it to 1000. If the PF raiser calls you, you and he are both committed no matter what happens. > *** TURN *** [Ac Qs 7c] [Qh] > > Thoughts so far? What's next? > > _______________________________________________________________ > * New Release: RecPoker.com v2.2 -http://www.recpoker.com The way you played it, there's 2350 in the pot and your opponents have less than half of that each. Just push here and hope for a call. Let me guess, one of them turned over AQ, right? Wouldn't you have rather got that money in on the flop with them drawing to 4 outs? Michael

Ok, Thanks for the flop info. Point taken. What would you have done differently if there was no Ace on the flop and/or it was heads up? The turn move seemed to be a no brainer move, which evidently has been supported by the responses. *** TURN *** [Ac Qs 7c] [Qh] SnoopySuited: bets 1811 and is all-in DL2000: calls 1075 and is all-in kmberlake: calls 255 and is all-in *** RIVER *** [Ac Qs 7c Qh] [4c] *** SHOW DOWN *** SnoopySuited: shows [7d 7s] (a full house, Sevens full of Queens) DL2000: shows [Ad Ts] (two pair, Aces and Queens) SnoopySuited collected 1640 from side pot kmberlake: shows [Jc Tc] (a flush, Ace high) SnoopySuited collected 3215 from main pot *** SUMMARY *** Total pot 4855 Main pot 3215.

> Ok, Thanks for the flop info. Point taken. > What would you have done differently if there was no Ace on the flop and/or it > was heads up? All depends on the player, chip stacks, texture of the board, moon phases, that sort of thing. I mean, if the flop is 742 rainbow, I likely check-call and hope a paint card hits the turn. If the flop is KQ7 I lead out and hope to get raised. If I'm against an opponent who hates to be bullied around, I check-raise figuring he jams at me. There's a lot of things that come into play here.

What's next? Not much left. Kimberlake only has 255 chips left in a pot that's over 2000. He's there no matter what you do. DL2000 only has 1000 left. He was the aggressor until your check raise and he just called. At this point you should go ahead and bet his stack for him. The pot is so big relative to your stacks that anything less would be seen as begging for a call. Just hope he doesn't have AA or AQ. _______________________________________________________________________ looking for a better newsgroup-reader? - www.recgroups.com

What's next? No problems preflop. I personally would lead out on the flop there for about 250 and hope the Ax in DL's hand raises. Given that you check-raised, I'd have at least put kmberlake in for her stack. I probably stack off all together and try to sell that I have a club draw, but I can see trying not to scare them off. They only have 250 and 1075 lef on the turn, the pot is close to 2500 already, there's only one play there. If AQ decided to "trap" by not stacking off on the flop, more power to him. I'm not giving random Qx's a free card. _______________________________________________________________________ : the next generation of web-newsreaders : http://www.recgroups.com

First I would have led out on this flop. 500 in the pot, I'd bet like 300. This is a perfect flop for you, because there's a real good chance there's an A out there. The plan is to lead, hope to get raised, and jam. If you're up against AA/QQ, that sucks, but you should be ok to go broke here because AK/AQ/AJ are all very likely holdings. Secondly, since you didn't lead, you have to raise much more after the bet and the call. I'd make it 1000 or so, and be prepared to call a jam. With your raise there, you give the flush draw perfect odds to hang around. To summarize, my goal here is to try and get all my chips in with someone else. > DL2000: calls 400 > kmberlake: calls 400 > *** TURN *** [Ac Qs 7c] [Qh] > > Thoughts so far? What's next? Well that card is real interesting. To me it seems that it either just beat you, or it just killed your action. AK/AJ is going to shut down for fear of AQ, and AQ is drooling over the chance to bust you. The only thing you can hope for here is some idiot with AK/AJ who ignores the Q and puts you on ummm, something else, KcQc who thinks he is real strong here but is really screwed, or some other idiot with another pair who thinks he has "2 pair" now and is ignoring the A. Man, I hate this card, and the way the pot was set up, any bet here commits you. I guess you could bet 800 here with the intention of folding to a jam, but I hate that. I hate open jamming here because the only hand that calls you has you beat. And for that matter, I hate checking here, because any of the hands I mentioned is likely to put a huge bet in, and you won't know if it's a hand you crush or one that has you crushed. So ummm, do something else on the flop. Yeah, that's my answer.

Based on that, I still like leading the flop with the set, and calling a jam. If you go for the check raise, just push. In you situation where you didn't do either, I agree with Raider, just bet them all-in on the turn.

I am getting all my chips in here. If I am up against AQ, AA, or QQ, so be it. Based on the action so far, I doubt that those hands are out there. If someone had those hands, you would have seen a reraise on the flop. Betting or check raising the flop are both good options here. It depends on who you are up against and your table image. If you have been aggressive, I would bet, hoping for a raise. If you have been tight, a check raise might be in order. Your check raise should have been bigger. Slow playing might be a little dangerous here, but is also a viable option.
