  • $11 Scoop NLHE.

    Posted by stueyy on April 18, 2021 at 6:14 pm

    A field of 17,061 players and getting close to the $$$$ paying 2767.

    I’m holding A7 ss in the BB with 8 players at the table. Blinds are 1250 /2500 and I have 157,815. 63 BB.

    Lo jack calls 2500, Cut off raises 7500 3 bigs sb folds, I call and HJ calls 26,350 in the pot flop 5s 6s Td. I check LJ bets 13,175 half pot CO folds I call ( probably should raise here?). Turn 4c, now open ended with nut flush draw. I check LJ shoves 130,830. Which is basically all my stack. I have I think 17 outs. What do you do?

    I probably should have lead out flop and turn? Or folded pre?

    Interesting spot….as played seems like a fold. They beat us to the shove, so we lack fold equity and we can be left with about 40bb which is not that short.

    The more aggressive line to consider is jamming turn when we pick up more equity and you can get max fold equity to win right there w A high and have many outs when called. I’d want to have some read on V that they can let go of a 1 pair type hand.

    These spots suck. We know V’s are going to be more likely to overbet shove on the bubble to protect their hands. We are not getting the right odds to call so it’s a big sigh fold. I do think C/R jamming flop is the correct play as it puts max pressure back on our opponent. As played, a fold OTT while retaining a healthy stack is still very fine. We can’t call off as that would be the big mistake.

    <font face=”inherit”>This is a great example of why we need a plan for the next street and V’s likely action…so we can </font>preemptively<font face=”inherit”> attack!</font>
