Results 1 to 12 of 12

    Default microstakes: 77

    How do you guys play this? I've not got any history on villain but he's a usual crap player for this level with random pushing and stuff with pretty marginal stuff etc

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (6 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Button ($10.56)
    SB ($4.91)
    BB ($0.06)
    UTG ($10)
    MP ($3.66)
    Hero ($11.43)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with 7, 7. UTG posts a blind of $0.05.
    UTG (poster) checks, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.05, 1 fold, SB raises to $0.4, BB calls $0.01 (All-In), UTG folds, Hero calls $0.35.

    Flop: ($0.91) 4, 3, 6 (3 players, 1 all-in)
    SB bets $0.55, Hero calls $0.55.

    Turn: ($2.01) 9 (3 players, 1 all-in)
    SB bets $3.96 (All-In), Hero ??

    Whats the move to this push?

    i say easy fold. what can you beat? villain could have A of clubs with 2 overs and is drawing to flush. but given the pre flop raise i'd say he has a higher PP with a higher club than yours. fold.

    oh villain is bad you say? (i just reread your OP). i still say fold... wait to stack him with a stronger hand... you've got $1 invested. crap players can still be dealt KK.

    getting my swell on
    raise pre flop, flop play is fine, and finally i would fold, there are way to many things beating you.

    Agreed with them. I might raise flop here but calling is fine.

    Glad you guys agreed with a fold on the turn. I figured he either had a bigger pair or atleast a bigger club. In actual fact he had the other 77 and the flush came in but i just wanted to check it was a good fold

    As played I'd re-raise flop but I want win every pot.

    I almost always raise PF, but at 5nl I cant imagine simply calling is that bad a play, especially with the table dynamics described.

    Also, he cant re-raise the flop because there isnt a raise. I think a flop raise is good as long as we call a shove.

    Remember that whether the flush comes in or not is a matter of chance, not a matter of whether or not it'll come in "this time".

    77 was at by far the lower end of his RANGE (think about that word).

    Maybe I should stop studying and replying after midnight. Good catch, but you knew what I meant.

    raise pre...as played, FOLD. you might have won this with a cbet on the flop.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!
