Hand Advice
« on: October 30, 2007, 10:58:01 AM »
Played a Home Tourny last week, Would you play this hand ?

Ok the scene - 9 players home game £10 buy-in
First hand -  just me and one other in the hand just called the BB and I am the BB
Flop -  ks kh 5c
Guy - goes all in
Me - holding  5h 5s (Fullhouse !) WHAT WOULD YOU DO ?

I called ! WAS THIS RIGHT OR SHOULD I OF PASSED ?

Guy - shows  kc qs (three of a kind)
Me - show  5h 5s

The Turn -  kd

Guy hit Quads !!!!  >:(

My thoughts were he could of had the K or 5 but I called and was out first so I was the dealer for that game. The guy playing is a loose aggressive guy and just that week knocked him out twice with big raises and all ins. The starting stack was 10k so I went for the quick double up, in my view I was right to call as I will win more than lose in the long run.
WAS I RIGHT,REPLYS PLEASE  :o

you cant not call just because you might think you will be unlucky. You flopped the third nuts!

This should be on a Bad beat board

The worst part of this is your mate.  10k stacks, first hand so I"m guessing blinds are 25/50 and he pushes all in after the flop!  Why oh why! Surely he would want to try and maximise what he must think is the best hand and he"s only ever going to get called by a hand that has him beat!!  Please can I come to your next home game!!

omg that is one sick hand. Nothing wrong with your play, you were a massive favourite to win the hand. Your friend however made a big mistake and should have put a bet in that he could have got away from. Although by the sounds of it he would never have folded no matter what happened.

Don"t have nightmares  ;D

All in after the flop might seem a little excessive but they"re  his chips to bet as he wishes. You called the all-in when you were ahead, you can"t get any better than that

Had his bet been smaller after the flop, you might have been able to get away from the hand after the turn. But would you have just called his smaller bet ? Personally, I"d have probably raised him (I never feel good about holding the low end of a full house) and the result would probably have been the same.

He got lucky, it happens. Luck evens itself out over time though......

Have to agree with e1 you put your chips in with 3.5:1 advantage, but one question for you.  What hand or range of hands did you put him on?  I presume you"ve played with this person many times, and have a read on his play.
