20NL Speed Poker - Playing the flush

Posted 7 years agoEdited 7 years ago

Hi guys,

Ive just returned to the tables after a 2 years break and im just refreshing my knowledge so please dont be too tough on me:-)
I believe i had to move all in on the flop didnt i?
If the turn bricks I dont think i could create enough fold equity on the turn after Villains initial reraise on the flop.
Or whatts the best way to play it?

It worked for me.

I think you can lay this down Preflop. I dont call AsXs that cant make a str8. Dont think this flop favour our range that much so that we can donk. Simple c/r is fine as well as playing c/c.

This is the best i could do if someone cant open the Youtube video
Shouldve done this on the first place instead of experimenting.
I thought the Youtube video would look cool:-)

Vid is working for me too and a nice way to view the hands IMO.
As played I think 4bet/fold pre vs his 3bet. The hand doesn't play well OOP and you are very often dominated by higher Ax.

As played I would just ch/call the flop. It doens't hit our range that hard indeed (only 77 maybe and flushdraws are the rest of the range that I call with pre).
When he raises there aren't that many more options than to rip it in I guess. You have good equity vs KK/QQ, hope he doens't have JJ/AA...

I mean i am cool with the line throughout and in a sh game I can defend with a9s and if you want to incorporate a hand into your leading range then this seems like a good one to me

I'd also say just fold pre - or potentially 4bet if the guy is 3betting a decent bit - calling is not terrible preflop but meh it's probably going to be losing at a some decent rate TBH.

Flop: I'd just either x/c or x/r - prob. x/c - I don't want to have a leading range here - I don't think it achieves a tooon - given that you have so much equity leading will be an "ok" play - I just don't really like it.

I'd just x/c try to pick up some extra equity on certain turn cards and go from there, I think by leading or x/r the flop we just increase our variance to a point that isen't really needed.
