6 handed cash table, 25/50p, I have 62, all pretty deep stacked...


Raise cut off, to 2 quid, 3 callers....i have a7 hearts

Flop, 5h, 9h, Kh, ......perfecccc!

3 callers, I play it in my usual style, lead out 6.50 into a 8.50 pot, 1 caller on the button.

Turn, another king

Whats ya thought process now? im new to the table, n also never played all but 1 of the players b4.

Whats the called with on the flop? a king? (i wnt mention the name but the one guy i knew was the one left, n he plays 5 tables) The king is a nervous card for me.

Make a 'scared bet' of 3/4 the pot and he folds.

Amazing how flopping the nuts in poker can lead cause so much doubts and provoke so many negative thoughts, just 1 card later.

    My thought process would have went "argh cigarette"

    listen m8,,play my self on 50/1 etc, u know there are fish regardless,,if ur beaten by FH so be it. Just bad luck,



    What I will say is NEVER BE SCARED OF GHOSTS. If you get to that stage, pack the game in for a while.

    BE PLAYING ON THE CASH AROUND 7PM,,if u fancy a game.

    Ok, im assuming you know this player and if you believe he's likely to raise with air or 2 pair or the trip kings then im shoving all-in and giving him the decision. The only hand im fearing is K9 or K5 and i believe an aggressive player would have re-raised from button with K9 so im ruling that 1 out.

    Therefore I am a huge dog going into the river and happy getting my cash in ahead.


    wrong?

    ive completely ruled out him flopping 2 pair, its his set im worried about, if he has one,


    he wont play any hand there that gives him 2 pair no way.

    paired board = full house paranoia!

    dohh

    Again im thinking an aggressive player would re-raise from button with 5-5 or 9-9, i know i would lol. Not gonna give it any more thought  as he folded to your bet on 4th street :):):)

    And if he flopped set he would have raised your bet on flop, scared of you hitting 4-flush with Ah???

    Im stil learning this game, but i'm assuming he's got KQ KJ or KT, maybe even Qh-Jh??

    I dont like paired boards myself, but you already hit your flush and if he has 3 kings he only has 10 outs, so im still shoving.................


    ps am i wrong??

    You played it fine.  If he had set/Ks up OTF he was re-raising you.
