This time a hand without any stats and from a lower limit. I think everyone can answer here this. Don't be afraid to say something wrong. You learn the most a mistakes and if you can make them here you won't do them on the real tables.

Please post your answers in grey only. To use it copy this quote, remove the dot and write your answer between them.

An example:

If you remove the dot you have this. (Mark it to read.)

Definate fold for me. I don't see any possible profitable ways for this to turn out for us. Sure you could hit a straight or a 2-pair, but the probability of that happening is very-very-very low. Also with this many players in the hand, someone probably already has a pair or will get it at the turn/river, and that pair would dominate our pair of 4's. Besides the 1/2-pair possibility there is a very high chance that someone will hit a flush, thus killing any hope we might have at all.

At first i am never in a situation in which i post a blind and am in MP2. It's just -EV.

OK, lets count the outs: 2 fours, 3 sixes (the six in clubs isnt an out)
5 outs. I would discount to 4 or maye only 3 because we have so many opponents and there is a chance of a raise behind us.
So we have 3-4 outs and odds of 9:1 which is a pretty clear fold for me.


We have hit bottom pair in a multiway pot. Clear fold, as it's very unlikely we'll have the best hand at the river, and it's also very unlikely that we can bluff all our opponents out of the hand. Only reason to call would be some kind of draw, but we don't even have that.


Fold was correct. :)

I'm happy to see that you all wrote the correct answer.

And yes posting in MP2 is a bad mistake. Don't do that.
