I've been trying to get control of the urge to play pps and I'm definitely improving. Is my completing SB alright here? Any thoughts on River bet when set comes in? Thanks.

Known players:

0.1/0.25 No-Limit Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 3♦, 3♥
4 folds, MP2 calls $0.25, 3 folds, Hero calls $0.15, BB checks.

Flop: ($0.75) 8♥, K♣, A♣ (3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, MP2 checks.

Turn: ($0.75) 7♥ (3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, MP2 checks.

Hi Tim,

I think, Ingol was saying that you hit the set approx. once every 8 times. So to complete the blind you need 7:1 odds, therefore you should complete when there were at least 2 limpers before you, if you take also implied odds into account. I hope I remember this correctly, don't want to mystify you there.

The Flop/Turn/River play was correct.

Hey Tim,

I actually remember this rule of thum for pps: limp in from late position with 3+limpers behind.

That is my suggestion. Here you haven't got enough pot odds and you'll lose money in the long run. About the river bet, I don't think there is much you can do over there. If nobody bet so far, they probably won't call you either. You can also try betting half pot to make a call easier, or hoping for a re-raise.

in nl25 you are actually getting worse odds than on nl10 , nl50 and upwards. There you get 1:5 and is still quite short to actually do it, then you need implied odds and stuff.

BUT since you have more than 40bb I like the limp there, it's just 1SB after all and you sure get implied odds for that call.


completing after only 1 limper isn´t that fine, better if there are 2 infront of us...especially on nl25

as played I´d bet the river a bit smaller, like 2/3 of potsize
