Hero ?

Man up and push. Most likely AK.

Man up and push. Most likely AK.

oh i pushed alright lol. but do you really think AK is the most likely hand here?

[ProZachNation]

At 25Nl I think most of the time you are looking at AK here, or a medium/high pocket pair.

The hands that make most sense to me are AK and and 77, preflop AK and 77 are both not usually raising. I could see both AK and 77 calling behind and looking to raise the turn too.

I think it look most likely like 77 because once you raise he probably thinks he can get most of his money in here instead of on the turn.

I would still reraise all-in here at 25NL your ahead of most donk moves here of people calling preflop with like K7.

[WhooFleuryScores]

Push and pray.

[yorib]

Assuming no reads of any sort (you haven't shown down junk, or been pushed off of hands) I'm betting he has 56s and figures you'll either fold, or, if not, he's got rough odds to try and call and win.

[martindcx1e]

i don't know yall this line screams 77 to me.

[andy-akb]

You cant be laying this hand down. Barring any reads this is a push, with most reads, this is a push, you are going to be ahead more than enough to make this play very profitable.

In a 4way pot I think you should be leading this, the board is fairly dry so slowplaying doesnt hurt much, but I still like to play my sets fast and this is the action I hope for and then I push.

Please tell me you pushed.

[martindcx1e]

[nutsinho]

it does scream 77, and at a higher level you might find a laydown
however at this level, opponents are in general not very solid so this could be any two pair combination in my opinion. AK is a longshot. 77 is the most likely hand by far, but it is still slightly +EV to get it all in here most likely

[martindcx1e]

ok so what is villain's range here? most likely not anything capable of hitting 2 pair. he probably doesn't have middle or bottom pair. so that leaves us with TP, KK, 77, or a draw. maybe i haven't played long enough but i def. haven't seen many people play a draw like this. pretty much every time i've seen somebody flat call and then re-raise on the same street it's been the nuts or extremely close to it. thoughts?

[jackvance]

I agree with ya here Martin. Not saying I would lay it down, but I'm expecting to go bust here.. set under set is about the only thing I am willing to go bust on without beating myself up over it.

[Renton]

call and get all in on turn

[martindcx1e]

call and get all in on turn

why wait? i think it's obvious we both like our hands enough to not give them up at any point.

[andy-akb]

ok so what is villain's range here?

With no read its very hard to put villain on a range. At $25NL on party Ive seen 70/60s all the way to 7/1s so it really makes a big difference as to who the villain is and what you have observed.

[renegaderob1]

I also think push. I know it screams 77, and I think 45% of the time it IS 77, but at this level he could also have AA, AK, 56, K7/4s, KQ or KJ (unlikely, but still a possibility). This is slightly +EV which makes it a pushable edge for me

my thoughts exacttly

[martindcx1e]

i forgot about AA - i like push a little better now. still though doesn't it raise red flags like crazy when you see a player flat call and re-raise on the same street? it always scares the crap out of me.

[Tony]

I've sat with Bfarrington a few times. I have about 200 hands on him in PT and have him pegged as semi-loose passive agressive. I have seen him be passive preflop with big pairs, JJ+ and bet hard with overpairs. I don't think his line is necessarily 77, but it could be. I think there is a good possibility that he has AA here.

So far, at PP 25NL a majority of my money has come from set farming. As far as I am concernced at this level it's an insta-push. If he has 77 or KK, reload. Nothing you can do about that at this level.

[martindcx1e]

does noone else agree that the flat call/re-raise on the same street line should be a huge warning every single time?

[DaNutsInYoEye]

does noone else agree that the flat call/re-raise on the same street line should be a huge warning every single time?

At $25NL, generally, yes.

so do you fold here?

[Fnord]

Looks like 7s, but felting a set in a raised pot can never be a big mistake 100ish deep.

[Turska]

I would never fold this at 25NL. Only way im folding set at
25NL (sometimes) is when obvious fl/str8 draw completes
on river.

I think there 50% probability for overpair, twopair or just donk
play. So u have odds to go for it.

[Lukie]

Just find a way to get it in, while getting as much value out of AK/AA type hands as you can. You're not laying down bottom set at 100bb deep when decent money went in preflop.

Sorry you got cold-decked.

haha, imagine you are hero in this hand.

villain is fearfact.

[johnny_fish]

You're getting close to 2:1 effective odds. You can't fold getting 2:1 at 25NL when there's just 1 hand you're scared of.

edit: You might want to slowplay this flop and get a little more value of donkish Kx/trash (c/r turn ai).
