    Default Top two on a monotone flop.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00 BB (5 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    SB ($308.55)
    BB ($232.70)
    UTG ($207.80)
    Hero (MP) ($200)
    Button ($168.47)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with 10, 8
    1 fold, Hero bets $7, Button calls $7, SB calls $6, 1 fold

    Flop: ($23) 10, 6, 8 (3 players)
    SB bets $16, Hero calls $16, Button raises to $161.47 (All-In), 1 fold, Hero folds

    Total pot: $71 | Rake: $3

    BTN is 32/15 with a flop Aggression Frequency of 48%
    SB is 28/12 with nitty post flop aggression stats.

    I thinking maybe calling the flop is a mistake because it gives BTN a nice price to draw with a high heart.

    Hard to get a solid read, youre right when you say that you should have reraised the flop. I dont know if I stack off here...I think his range has you beat or slight fav...I agree with you fold unless it turns out the guy is a maniac.

    Youre best bet is seeing Ace high draw, A ten (maybe). Youre prob running into Jack nine suited, sixes, maybe eights, 97...I say good fold.
    Me? I always tell the truth.

    Even when I lie.

    slow motion
    def. raise the flop. i think a slightly conservative fold is fine as played.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    I see people shove the nut flush draw here sometimes, but the problem is he has almost no hands with the lone ace in his button calling range. Maybe something like AQo or AJo. But he has 66, 88, TT in his range and possibly 79s (of another suit) and lots of small flushes

    given that his value range is really wide, his semi-bluffing range is pretty narrow and I don't see any reason for him to bluff with something retarded like J9 with a jack high flush draw... considering he could be behind AND drawing thin depending on what we have
    we're really hoping for him to have 68 and go crazy with it?

    I'd probably put it in with a set though
