Flopped set in the BB against 2 aggressors

    UTG in this hand is 46/27/3 over 50 hands and button is 18/11/3 over 190 hands. This is the first time the button has raised post flop all game and has generally folded to all my cbets or 3bets preflop.

    Whats the best way to go about the hand? I've tended to lose value when leading flopped sets from the blinds, so decided to check and re-evaluate after their action. I'm playing 28/18/5 for this session

    Blonde Poker 0.50/1, hand converted by the iPoker Converter at Talking-Poker

    saw flop | saw showdown

    Button Button ($116.40)
    SB ($76)
    BB Flushdraw ($144.65)
    UTG UTG ($219.35)
    UTG+1 ($99)
    CO ($114)

    Preflop: Flushdraw is in the BB with 5diamond.gif 5club.gif
    UTG raises to 4, 2 folds, Button calls 4, 1 fold, Flushdraw calls 3.

    Flop (12.50) 4club.gif 5heart.gif Qheart.gif
    Flushdraw checks, UTG bets 5, Button raises to 10, Flushdraw ??

    Theres only one possible hand beating you right now, but there is a whole world of hands that could catch up on you. So i am taking this down right now, and if i get a caller i am hoping its not qq. You cannot let the pot stay three way as there are too many scare cards that can come down on the turn like any heart or 236kaj so i would just shove here.

    I think thats a little extreme. If UTG has an overpair, he might pay me off but the button isnt going to put his money in the pot unless he has QQ or 44

    the bet of 5 and the raise of 5 add up to about one normal bet, I'd probably just go ahead and make it 35 or something.

    If i C/R to 30/35 and UTG folds and i called by the button...whats my best action if a heart comes?

    I was getting a bit lost by not leading the flop and checking was a bad idea for me because i didnt really have a plan of action on the turn. I really need to improve my cash game!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,039 ✭✭✭Theresalwaysone


    Make it 30. If a heart comes my standard line is to check/call if he bets and blocker bet the river just enough to stop a bluff and so that you can get away from it if raised. Or if checked through Turn I VB the river and fold to a shove.

    He's from the unorthodox poker school of winning, leave him alone!

    seeing as you checked the flop i think you should just call this bet, hopefully the other guy who bet 5 will go crazy and all the work will be done by the time the action is back on you. if not and he just calls, then i'd then go for a check raise on the turn (a non heart turn), i think one of them will bet the turn protecting their hand from a flush draw.

    easy raise to $55.50 if button reraises all in ur pc......

    Thats what i hoped so i called the 10 hoping UTG would pump it, but he folded.

    Turn was a black 7, i lead for 25 (pot 37.5) and the button folded. Played it badly

    raise to 30/35. too many turn scare cards and your overcall of the minraise will look very suspicious to utg. its quite likely button has a flush draw. People love to minraise fds on the flop these days. If he has 44 great get it in now. there's little to no chance he has qq.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,201 ✭✭✭Macspower


    Raise here everytime... A call and a CR on the turn will only get called by a very strong hand... there are a lot of hands that will call now.. AA and KK with call/raise now and a lot of guys with AQ will call now as will some flushdraws..

    Calling now and reeval the turn is not good here
