First of all, to low preflop raise, would raise it to 200 (5bb 3+2limpers).
On flop you really want to push out the straight and flushdraws and should raise higher, at least according to me.

(Question for coach, if someone raise me after the flopbet -> they say they have the straight, is it worth calling since its often a bluff or a semibluff with a draw and you do have 4 outs for the full house)

Also on turn that small bet, what is the purpose? you are potcomitted with any form of raise so push it.


bigger bet pref, allin on floop. Good rule of thumb - try to not slowplay anything below set, including two pair. Especialy on such drawy board.

Hi janpoker1,

Raise to 200 preflop.

We can't ever slowplay here. The only hand we can possibly slowplay is K :heart:T :heart:, and even then it is still way better to raise.

If we raise the flop, we get a ton of value from draws, dead money, and callstations that possibly will fold a scary turn/river, or suck us out on a scary turn/river. The fact that there are 3 (!!) callers in front already means that the chances of one of the above is massive. BTW, we should shove the flop directly.

Turn is well played.

(Question for coach, if someone raise me after the flopbet -> they say they have the straight, is it worth calling since its often a bluff or a semibluff with a draw and you do have 4 outs for the full house)

with regard to this, we should be all-in already... but if someone raised me again, I would imagine I'd have the pot odds to call for my full house outs. And indeed, they could still be bluffing/semibluffing/valueowning themselves with AK, AT. So I still call.
