Is this a good or bad play? And what would I do on future streets?
HJ: hiznyak: $45.28
CO: wilkkm0: $25.35
BN: Pihelgas: $25
SB: badbetter13: $25.10
BB: Thomasthekin: $25
UTG: tigertonkin: $29.50
CO: wilkkm0: $25.35
BN: Pihelgas: $25
SB: badbetter13: $25.10
BB: Thomasthekin: $25
UTG: tigertonkin: $29.50
Ok, so in a previous pot a few hands before, I won a pot at showdown against Badbetter holding 7 10c on a 3d4d7c 4s2c board, he had c bet 1/2 on flop then 3/4 pot on turn. I had opened UTG to 75c and he re-raised to $1.25 in the SB so I called in position. The fact it went to shown down meant the table knew I was opening light and had just called both flop and turn. (river went check, check). I put him on A10+ and pairs 10+ he actually showed JQd aiming for the flush draw.
Preflop
($0.35)
(6 Players)
tigertonkin was dealt
8
5
tigertonkin raises to $0.75, hiznyak folds, wilkkm0 folds, Pihelgas calls $0.75, badbetter13 raises to $3, Thomasthekin folds, tigertonkin calls $2.25, Pihelgas calls $2.25
tigertonkin raises to $0.75, hiznyak folds, wilkkm0 folds, Pihelgas calls $0.75, badbetter13 raises to $3, Thomasthekin folds, tigertonkin calls $2.25, Pihelgas calls $2.25
So from that when I decided to again open light and badbetter raised, I felt it was a squeeze play. So I called with the intention to play towards a diamond flush board.
Flop
($9.35)
4
3
3
(3 Players)
badbetter13 checks,
tigertonkin checks,
Pihelgas checks
It was checked all round. I thought I couldnt bet this pot and represent trips as it was unlikely and if I bet to represent the 4, badbetter could re-raise and steal it representing a high pair.
Turn
($9.35)
4
3
3
7
(3 Players)
badbetter13 checks,
tigertonkin bets $6.25,
Pihelgas folds,
badbetter13 folds
when the 7 comes I am obviously happy and feel I need to bet this pot to win right here. Which is what happened.
Final Pot
tigertonkin
wins $8.83
My issue though is; what the hell would I do if Badbetter had shoved on me or just re-raised? Is it a standard all in shove/call/ or a simple fold? I wasn't worried about Pihelgas as he had shown no strength.
However is it a big mistake me totally ignoring pihelgas? As I assumed he was weak by just calling on the BTN? If that is the case then surely these cards would be hitting his range?!
Finally how bad is my bet sizing? I tend to try to always bet 3/4 of the pot.
Sorry for all the questions but I am trying to work hard on my game. please point out anything I am doing majorly wrong! cheers
