Hello everyone!

My opponent plays 40/15 over 55 hands.

The limp from him already signals he's a weaker player, so I think he may bet bigger with stronger hands, like bet the pot with an ace.

However, what would you do when he bets half pot? Unfortunately I wasn't paying much attention to this game, so I don't know if he's going to continue his bluffs, and my hand is very vulnerable to any overcards, so I just jammed, hoping he folds maybe?

To be honest, I wasn't sure ingame what I wanted to achieve with this hand in this situation. Do I want a call, do I want to just take it down here? I was thinking about hands that would call me: weaker aces that didn't raise pre, also 2nd pairs because I'm going to have FD's in this pot a lot, and his FD's.


Asztal: A♠2♠9♣
       Részesedés   Nyert  Osztozás
MP3        50.73%  48.55%     2.18% { 9s3s }
CO         49.27%  47.09%     2.18% { A6s-A2s, Q9s, J9s, T9s, 97s+, Ks8s, Qs8s, Js8s, Ts8s, Ks7s, Qs7s, Js7s, Ts7s, 8s7s, Ks6s, Qs6s, Ks5s, Qs5s, Ks4s, Qs4s, A9o-A3o, K9o, Q9o, J9o, T9o }

This is a coin flip basically, but given the fact that he's probably betting more hands, winning the pot uncontested makes it more +.

How would you play this hand? Call, and expect my opponents to keep barreling or just get it in?

I would most likely lead the flop with my flush draw as semi bluff, but checking isn’t too bad to get a cheap turn card. The MP+2 is off course betting in to 2 players and he is passive. So you need a decent amount of fold equity to make a push profitable and I don’t think you have that here. So I would call only here.

Cheers,
