    Default 5/10 - flopped top two, lots of action 3-way

    SB is a fish, running 50/17/1.8 over ~200 hands, no specific reads, don't know what his overpot donkbet means. BB is a good, very aggro tagg, running 28/24/3.3 over ~800 hands, again no specific reads. This could be stupid easy, but humor me, please.

    Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Holdem Ring game - Blinds: $5/$10 - 6 players - Converter

    Stack sizes:
    UTG: $1072
    UTG+1: $995
    CO: $107.75
    Hero: $1087
    SB: $1549
    BB: $1192

    Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with Q K
    3 folds, Hero raises to $35, SB calls, BB calls.

    Flop: 5 Q K ($105, 3 players)
    SB bets $120, BB calls, Hero...

    slow motion
    raise to 500 call push seems good. flat calling is bad w/ the super drawy board texture.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    no point messing around and trying to get tricky here vs a fish - just raise to 400 or so and obv call if he shoves. If he calls and some horrible card like Ad comes up I'd just check otherwise just push your remaining 550 in and expect to get called by a king or draw

    Lighting sweet moneys on fire.
    Isn't 28/24/3.3 LAG? I would call flop and bet/raise any non diamond turn. Fold turn to a large bet if a diamond hits. Raising flop isn't terrible either.

    I guess we have to pay off a set of fives which is a big part of BB range here (it's not mandatory to protect it here, because he is still expecting you to put money in this pot with a lot of hands).

    holy cow.. raissssee!!

    Though I must admit.. SB's overbet lead into two players on this board is pretty scary. I just don't see how you're getting away from it though.. if he has 55.

    its also possible that he has JT.. or diamonds.. and BB can have a very wide range.

    I stack here and don't think too much about it if its a cooler.

    Of course I raised. Just looking for thoughts and maybe some raise sizes. I probably made it too small...

    Flop: 5 Q K ($105, 3 players)
    SB bets $120, BB calls, Hero raises to $360, SB folds, BB calls

    Turn: 9 ($945, 2 players)
    BB checks, Hero is all-in $692, BB calls.

    River: 6 ($2329, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: $2329)

    Results:
    Final pot: $2329
    BB showed J T

    So am I happy I got him to put in $240 more with an oesd, or pissed at myself for not raising more? Anyone check behind the turn?

    I'd make it $450 to go on da flop.

    Easy raise, I prob make it 385

    Turn is godawful, but I still probably shove
