    Default Queens in multyway pot facing 2 pushes.

    lol@this.
    The table had a massive discussion after i played this (43offsoot sounded like he knew what he was on about and did he used to be a member here!?)
    Anyway, is this an insta call. I know what the shorty has in hand, one of two hands, the further cold caller didnt want me in the pot which is exactly why i called considering the board...

    Seat 7: Nymfe_SE ($81.95 in chips)
    Seat 8: Alieniiii ($196.75 in chips)

    43offsuit : Bet ($7)
    MyMumHasAIDS : Raise ($24)
    Nymfe_SE : Call ($23)
    Alieniiii : Call ($22)
    43offsuit : Call ($17)

    *** Flop *** :
    Nymfe_SE : Bet ($57.95) All in
    Alieniiii : Raise ($172.75) All in
    43offsuit : Fold
    MyMumHasAIDS has to call all this right?

    if u think alien plays a flush draw like this then he has odds for push and his range is like 22,33,55,JJ,AKs,and some sc's then i think this is a call as ur calling only 35% into the pot but he has to play flushes there. ur equity is around 40-50 for his range + it seem like isolation bet which makes it easier for u.

    Tough spot. I put Shorty on a real hand...looks like he has a big overpair. I'm not sure he expected so many to call your 3 bet behind him so I'd put him on JJ+ or possibly AK here. However, allin villain looks like he has a draw so I think I am goot against him so I'd probably call.

    Hmm. You don't have to call here, as Alien is showing strength by pushing before you have acted when you have 3bet PF.

    However, if he had a set the more profitable way to play is to usually call shorty's all in and not re-raise, especially with 2 other callers. Re-raising makes me think he wants others out, so I call for that reason. It's close though, he did just call PF which is often a setmine... I wouldn't be surprised for him to show a set, but it would be a weird way to play it.

    pretty much my thoughst exactly.

    If he'd cold called preflop AND only called the shortys push id have been very scared. Maybe even enough to open fold considering pot size

    They show AK and 44 fwiw and i still dont hold.

    yeah, I almost said 44 would do that with the OESD+sh0wdown value. Shorty I would never worry about there.

    You had the best hand so it was the right call. EV+, so whats the problem? You made the right read.
