Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

SB: $41.63 (83.3 bb)
BB: $51.66 (103.3 bb)
UTG: $56.64 (113.3 bb)
MP: $10.92 (21.8 bb)
CO: $33.10 (66.2 bb)
Hero (BTN): $50 (100 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with Q♠: A♦:
3 folds, Hero raises to $1, SB folds, BB raises to $4.50, Hero calls $3.50

Flop: ($9.25) 3♠: 4♣: 5♣: (2 players)
BB bets $6.50, Hero???

Preflop: BB is playing 34/31 in 34 hands. Standard defend.

Flop: Not sure can I call this. I have a gutshot and two overs. I may sometimes have the best hand, too. The betsize is pretty big for a 3bet pot, though.

Yeah the stats are based on low sample. With Ac i will probably float one despite the big sizing, now i want to fold.

Agree with pokerboy. If I had at least one club I'd call once, but now it's a fold for me.

The problem is the playability of this hand on later streets. What if hitting a queen OTT and faced to another (big) bet? Even an ace can put us into a tough spot. Since we're ip, on some turn cards (club, 2,6,7) we might have a situation to bluff him.
But it would be no mistake to find a fold here.

Yeah, I folded. I agree that a call with an Ac would be fine. The thing is that I'm overfolding vs any kind of postflop aggression atm, so am trying to find spots where I can defend more.

Ya, it's hard to call without a club.
I think it's either a fold or a raise. Villain's range is very wide, and he does miss on this board a lot.
But raise may also get us committed. We shouldn't do this all day, but I think once in a while raise at this point to balance our range is not a bad idea. It's just my opinion. ^^

If you put villain's range on 77+, Axs, 78s+, and some other suited cards, you are almost 50% vs 50% here.
Vs, 77+, Acxc, 78+ and some other club pocket cards that he may not fold, you still have 33.6%, which is not too bad. LOL
