    Default What do you do with these?

    HAND 1: Is it worth chasing the baby flush here? The weak turn bet made me think he was drawing to a presumably higher flush. I'm not sure I would have wanted to call a big river bet even if I made my hand.

    BB ($14.85)

    MP3 ($38.60)
    CO ($50.27)
    Button ($23.90)
    Hero ($24.75)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 5, 3. Hero posts a blind of $0.10.

    Turn: ($4.83) 6 (3 players)
    Hero checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 bets $1.75, Hero ?

    HAND 2:
    Easy fold here after the flop check-raise. But should I have just taken the free card? It seemed like a good board to bet my draw and build the pot with so many involved in it. The only thing I can think is that the BB was slowplaying a set.

    hand 1: these kinds of reverse-implied-odds situations are indeed best avoided. Too many people in the pot.

    hand 2: check the flop. Too many people in the pot to pull this move.
