utg 49/28
mp 83/33
co 44/13
bb 29/0

Poker Stars, $0.50/$1 No Limit Omaha Cash, 6 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

Hero (BTN): $100 (100 bb)
SB: $395.86 (395.9 bb)
BB: $277.01 (277 bb)
UTG: $96.59 (96.6 bb)
MP: $208.29 (208.3 bb)
CO: $45.26 (45.3 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with 8 A 7 5
UTG raises to $3, MP calls $3, CO calls $3, Hero calls $3, SB folds, BB calls $2

Flop: ($15.50) 9 2 J (5 players)
BB checks, UTG checks, MP bets $7, CO raises to $35.80, 2 folds, UTG raises to $93.59 and is all-in, MP folds, CO calls $6.46 and is all-in

Turn: ($107.02) 3 (2 players, 2 are all-in)
River: ($107.02) 3 (2 players, 2 are all-in)

This looks like a good flop for us. Once mp leads and CO ships I put someone on a set and folded, mainly b/c mp and utg are 100bb deep. Nitty fold?

If you want to play this pot, are you shoving flop or calling?

thx

When the action gets to you it's something like $42 to win around $105 so it's a very marginal play. Your gutshot may or may not be good. If you reshove you might just get a straight wrap to fold (since they have to be worried about the flush draw taking a lot of their outs away).

Of course if you do make a marginal call it's not closing the action and anyone else reraising here makes your initial call retrospectively incorrect (because now you have to call a reraise and put more money in while behind).

Personally the shortstack is shoving 2 pair or any draw and we can't really put MP on a set just because he led out half the pot...

I think you have to call and call the reshove. I prefer this to shipping myself as having a third player in the hand can only help our equity.

Hi,

If you shove you never get there all-in ahead (unless CO has some kind of wrap)
So it comes if you want to gamble.

Even 5-way you generally have 32-35% equity, so if you want to isolate Co then shove should better option than calling.

best regards,

As alraedy mentioned the call alone is very marginal.
But there are these players behind you. A call from them won't boost your equity 3handed over 33% or 4handed over 25%.
But when another player has a good hand, he will put even more chips in than a simple call (raise immediately or bet on later streets). And vs. these additional bets/raises you will nearly never be a favourite.

to summarise:
The call alone is plus/minus EV and additional actions after you will surely be minus EV.

So I think this nitty fold is the best.

Anyway... what about some spew: 3bet preflop?
Or are the stacks too small and the hand to worse to risk a 4bet from some AA**?

Regards MGF

Hi,

this hand is just too weak to squeeze here. You are gonna get to so many flops dominated it would be a disaster.

When you have a nfd, you want to have as many players in the pot as possible. Your equity won't change, but pot odds will. With 35% equity it's not good in HU pot, but a good one in 4way pot.

For that reason raise at any point is bad.
