I'm very new to SHNL. I was playing in a live $1/$2 game last night. We were 4 handed at the time and I had the following hand. My appologies for the formatting. Low stack was about 60xBB, big stack was about 100xBB. Everyone is fairly laggy, I'm playing tight, unfortunately leaning to weak-tight.

I want to take this hand line by line, so what do you do after this flop?

Hero posts $1 SB (dealt to Hero: KsKc)
BB posts $2BB
UTG/CO calls $2
Button folds
Hero raises to $6
BB calls another $4
UTG folds

Flop ($14) AhKhJh
Hero bets $10
BB raises $55 to $65 and is all in
Hero?

I have him covered by about $10. Call the push or fold?

short handed I think this is a call. especially if your buddy is playing lag is probably donking around here with a bad A. Most of the reasonable hearts that would have called preflop are on the flop, so it is less likely that he flopped a heart flush unless he has 98 or 76 or something. If that was his hand do you think he would push all-in or try to milk you when flops a monster hand?

Its read dependent, but unless this guy is weak tight I am calling and hoping to see him turn over AJ or some crap like that. If he did get lucky and flop the flush you are still +30% to boat up and win the hand.

i think it's an easy call b/c of your draw to a boat.

vs. non-flush hands:
Board: Ah Kh Jh
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 83.077% 80.60% 02.48% 71814 2208.00 { KcKs }
Hand 1: 16.923% 14.44% 02.48% 12870 2208.00 { JJ+, A6s+, KJs, A7o+, KJo }


vs a typical flush hand:
Board: Ah Kh Jh
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 34.545% 34.44% 00.10% 341 1.00 { KcKs }
Hand 1: 65.455% 65.35% 00.10% 647 1.00 { 8h7h }

you're getting 2:1 which is about what you need if you're beat here, and at least 50% of the time he has one of those first set of hands.

I cut out the math part because I hate math.

Jojo -

Yeah, intellectualy I'm 100% with you. What made this really hard is that the guy I was up against had done things like call a 3xBB PFraise with 95o, or bet UTG with K7o. Just maniac stuff.

the wider his range, the more likely you have him beat.

The push is a sign that he is putting you on a draw. A made flush is more likely to call and get another bet out of you. In any case, his raise isn't enough to drive a set out of the hand.

Say thank you and call

Man I suck. I'm so used to playing turbo SnGs that I have no post-flop game at all. None. I called, but it was reluctant as hell. He had ATo. My set held up.

I want to start playing 6-max to work on nothing but post-flop game, but I need a tutor or a coach. I flat out suck.

Stop saying what I want to say.
