    Default Weak fullhouse

    Is it ok to shove against a shortstack with the worst boat on this board? Does he call with a non-Royal flush or trip kings enough?

    $0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
    5 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    UTG iuhas ($50.00)
    CO Hero ($40.95)
    BTN POKEMON110110 ($53.90)
    SB Solidxnyc ($24.95)
    BB Sixspack ($57.00)

    Pre-flop: ($0.75, 5 players) Hero is CO
    1 fold, Hero raises to $1, 1 fold, Solidxnyc calls $0.75, Sixspack calls $0.50

    Flop: ($3, 3 players)
    Solidxnyc checks, Sixspack checks, Hero bets $2.50, Solidxnyc calls $2.50, Sixspack folds

    Turn: ($8, 2 players)
    Solidxnyc checks, Hero checks

    River: ($8, 2 players)
    Solidxnyc bets $5.50, Hero goes all-in $37.45

    I'm totally with ya on this one. Unless there is something I don't see here how could you get hurt with anything shy of AK or quads? Don't we have to believe he would have raised you with TPTK on the flop? I think it's totally +EV!

    Now I'll sit back and see how wrong I am...lol

    I'd like to think any hand with a high boat would have showed aggression on an earlier street or preflop.

    This is fine.

    I'm always like 100% wrong when I try to guess what the reaction will be to my posts but that's a good thing I think.

    there are quite a few flush hands that would call and at $50NL I have even seen str8 hands call down on these types of boards.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    good/standard. turn is the interesting decision in this hand, and i think you made a good play...

    I dont like betting the turn here, hell fold all his kings and youll generally only get called by better. putting him in on the river is good/standard.
    "This sure beats Super Mario Bros.!" is my ejaculation catch phrase.

    I think you're always ahead here. You would have heard from KJ on flop, and you would have heard from AK preflop.

    I felt totally stupid, like I should have put him on KJ.

    Can you explain why you think the turn check is best?
    Is it important that the turn is an A, completing QT?
    Is it important that both the middle and high card and now even the A are spades, meaning strong combodraws besides KQs are not possible?

    I'd bet this turn myself for value against KQ/KJ/AJ/(AQ), fwiw
