Small Stakes Shorthanded NL Poker Forums

Hi,

Was recently playing a 5/5 live game - Casino - fairly loose MP was playing wide range not aggro preflop. no previous metagame - I had a fairly LAG image though hadn't showed down any marginal holdings.

Would be interested to pick the brains of you all as to turn decision and reasoning/ups and downs of alternatives..

$5/5 6 max hero with $1.2k UTG opens with 75cc to $25, MP calls having you covered, flop is 643dd, hero cbets $40 MP calls, turn is 7ss, hero bets $110 MP raises to $360 action to hero..

Shoot

Just shove get value from set or overpair, if he's on a flush draw I doubt hes putting in any more money on the river unless he hits, so just try to get it in on turn.

Also was this 10 handed? Wondering why u open

edit: i guess i missed the fact it was 6 handed

Just shove

Why would you shove? You really think someone decent calls with an overpair? A set maybe, but really sucks if he calls and has the same straight+redraw.

hero has $1,025 in his stack when he gets raised. I can't see how raising to anything smaller than a shove makes any sense unless you want to leave like $100 behind. Also want to charge the one million flush draws that are possible here.

yeah it's not super likely villain stacks of with over pair, but then again at a live poker table it would be pretty standard.

Also, the same straight plus redraw? that's two combinations of A5s, unless vaillain is calling a utg open with other suited fives. There are a ton more sets, overpairs, and flush draw.
