it hits me on turn, i bet and i want to have call from for example flush draws. But here is raise, so after thinking i think he has set, maybe pocket sevens. so i make 3bet. however after 4bet i am almost sure he zas 77, maybe 78s (new idea, i forgot on suit. connectors before). so i just call.

Hey all,

I'm new to the site so I don't know how this works. Do I have to have a certain level membership to take advantage of this or is it open to all? Right now I'm giving the site a test run.

Thanks

I'm no coach but your raise on the flop does nothing. There aren't very many draws that will fold to odds of 3.55:1. We don't want to fold out weaker hands that we beat and if the other player will call down light then we should be raising more for value. With out stats it hard to say if we should be raising but a raise of 2.2x is just as bad as the other players min 3 bet oop pre. This may even be a 4 bet pre. In any case you can't really fold pre.

Make it 6.5x to go pre. You want to make sure you get all the money in. It should have been at least 5x to go anyway.

Flop 3/4
Turn 60%
River all in

His stack on the flop if we make it 0.13 to go.

1.44-0.13=1.31

The pot on the flop

0.13+0.13+0.01=0.27

SPR= 1.31/0.27=4.85

We bet 3/4

0.27(3/4)=0.20

The pot on the turn

0.27+0.20+0.20=0.67

His stack 1.31-0.20=1.11

We bet 60%

0.67(0.60)=0.40

The river pot

0.67+0.40+0.40=1.47

His stack 1.11-0.40=0.71

Turn shove for maximum value vs. pair+draws
I don`t think he has a set or 2pair. T9 with 1 is not likely as I believe he wouldn`t limp/call preflop w/ offsuit connectors.
We`re only beat by Jx or a flush like K :diamond:9

Questionable cbet which could only fold out some overcards most of which we beat.
I guess a second barrel on the turn should be fine, probably a bit bigger.
On the river I don`t think he would raise me with a weaker ace.
