Back to Poker after a year break: 25NL

Results 1 to 9 of 9
  1. #1

    Default Back to Poker after a year break: 25NL

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    saw flop

    SB ($46.86)
    BB ($69.02)
    UTG ($19.94)
    UTG+1 ($37.32)
    Hero (MP1) ($28.34)
    MP2 ($9.15)
    MP3 ($26.78)
    CO ($32.59)
    Button ($33.45)

    Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A, A
    2 folds, Hero bets $0.80, 2 folds, CO calls $0.80, Button calls $0.80, SB calls $0.70, BB calls $0.55

    Flop: ($4) 9, 9, 4 (5 players)
    SB bets $2.50, 1 fold, Hero calls $2.50, CO raises to $7.25, 1 fold, SB calls $4.75, Hero ??

    In my mind this is a fold against two players continuing and 4 opponents seeing the flop, but then again, maybe I have forgotten what 25NL is like.
    Any insight into hands?

    I was thinking one of them has a better than decent chance at a 9 or 44, and the other hand an over pair. 44 is totally in the cold call range, and blind players could show up with lots of 9s, right?

    The only upside is I can close the action, but I only like an A on the turn right?

    Some reads would be good here.

    I like the fold there. Don't like calling when you're often beat or giving a free card to a fd. You're beating some small overpairs but that's not alot of hands. I think it's fold or raise, and you're probably crushed by any hand calling a flop 3-bet and/or pushing. Sometimes you'll fold and see them show down nonsense hands but you're usually drawing to 2 outs here. So muck.

    44, 99, 98s, T9s, J9-A9, that's 36 combos
    TT-QQ, maybe 88, 24 combos
    Axss, 10 combos

    I'd raise to 4bb from mp1 pre but that might be my leak not yours. Bringing it up coz I wanna hear what others have to say.

    first i would raise preflop to 1$ at least, but as playd for me it's not an easy fold here

    there more ways to see the hand

    1. SB on a flush draw and CO on 10-QQ or another pair different then 44, a full i think will slowplay this to extract more value from the hand, if this is the case i will shove here over CO raise

    2. one of them has the 9 and then its a deff fold

    with no reads from you on them i cant decide 1 or 2, but with two 9 on the flop , chances for one of them to have one is slim, so i would shove and just hope my play would be bad some will say, but by math you are 50/50 here, so i would go on the flip coin.

    there's no way SB has a 9 here, he's got TT/JJ or 66- 88 all the time.

    CO may have it, reads would help us decide, idk wtf he's ever raising on this flop, it really doesn't make sense for him to ever do this, looks really strong but, I prolly fold and take a note.

    Just fold, you're smoked. Also, post reads in future hands you post or I'm going to lock them.

    Looks like a classic reverse implied odds situation.

    I forgot to say this was a rush poker table, as I am trying to play off re-load bonus before it expires. So I didn't have reads, which I should have shared. (But thanks for being a dick about it moderator). Looking back, I can now see that there stats were as so:

    CO: 12/10 over 48 hands
    SB: 22/11 over 64 hands

    HUDs work for Rush Poker now, so you might want to look into that.

    At the top of the forums there are the stickies. This one sticks out:
