$1 for a Jack anyone?

[Theeggman]

I don't know if I shoulda chased this or not. I figure I've got only 7 outs to make a hand worth betting at the river so I folded. The table was basically calling down every hand (BPGK and up).

Bison converter doesn't seem to work with AP HHs.

Your pot odds here were like 10:1. Even for a four outer, that's decent - and with everyone calling everything, if you hit it you know you're making another $3 or $4.

By the way, I really only like the jacks as outs. Not sure what you think the other 3 are, but any card that puts three broadways on the board while only giving you one pair is not a very happy card. Especially with like four people in the hand. The queens are bad because they make a straight for any jack; the aces are bad because people play crap hands like AT, A9 and A3 all day long.

Why do you min-raise pre-flop?

Shit. I thought you might say that. Still working out my on-the-fly odds calculator.

Limit.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Limit.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Dude, that is the one word that has saved my bankroll more than once.

[spino1i]

well OK the game just gives me a headache is all.. also I think you want to post this in the limit forum, as this is for No limit hands...

[Theeggman]

Oops. Thought it was where I should post HHs but I guess they should go with fnord's. Mod please move.

[BobbySalami]

Well, if the table calls down with anything, I only like 3 of my outs as the Js very well has me beat. So I dont think you are getting the right pot odds to make this call....You would need about $14 in the pot to make the call i believe.

The results of the hand shouldnt change the fact that it was a good fold......also your skimming by if you think your 4 outs are good.....

But then again, im not a limit guy.

10$ in the pot makes the call profitable.

i think the 4 outer draw is like 10.5:1 to catch, so you need a pot laying you 11:1

if the pot lays you 10:1 on your call, you can call for implied odds of catching an extra bet or two on the river if you hit, and if you miss, fold.


but i like your fold, one of your outs is dirty because it gives someone else a flush.

If im bored, yes. If I'm playing another hand somewhere else, no.
