  • 5 Card PLO vs. Steve

    Posted by arw on March 21, 2021 at 3:34 pm

    7 handed, 16 left

    UTG and UTG+1 both fold, then the remaining 5 players limp in for 100.

    SB = 7500

    BB = 6300

    HJ = 5500

    Cutoff = 2700 — @SteveFredlund

    Button = 6000 — hero

    Flop is 8h5c2h

    sb and bb both check, the highjack bets 100,

    Steve is the cutoff who raises to 800 with 1900 behind.

    I have 6d7s5h2c4h.

    • 76 for an open ender
    • — outs are (non-heart 9, 4) — 6 outs for straight
    • 54hh for a flush draw
    • — outs are (Ah, Kh, Qh, Jh, Th, 9h, 7h, 3h) — 8 outs for flush
    • 52 for bottom two pair
    • — outs are (5s, 5d, 2d, 2s) — 4 outs for full-house

    Thoughts on what I should do vs. Steve’s range in this spot?

    i think you should fold against Steve’s top set… but I might be biased 🙂

      besides the 88, what were your other 2 cards?

      In regards to folding my hand to your top set,

      There are good outs and bad outs. In reality,

      — I have bottom two pair

      — an open ended straight draw

      — a weak flush draw

      Against a rock such as @SteveFredlund , who always has it………………………it isn’t always optimal to put money in with weak holdings and draws against them. I estimate that I have about 50% equity in an ideal spot (no blockers) vs. top set.

        I honestly don’t remember; could have been a number of things but would have had to include another pair, double suited, or some connected stuff. I know I didn’t have any other draws on that board so must have been over cards.
