Chips: 4,497 | | | Two more hands with HQ CASH 1/3 Argosy $1/3 NL
Nuts and bolts for these two.
I've got about 250 in front of me.
I'm holding 7 8 of spades.
6 players go into a blind-straddled pot for $6 each.
FLOP
K 7 8
BB, a very calculating and good player makes it $30.
One caller and now it's my turn to act.
I pop it to $90 and I the BB goes into the tank for a min or so, then shoves. He has me covered. The other caller mucks.
There is a flush draw on the board.
Push or fold here?
2nd hand
I have KK and I'm short stack at $85.
I raise $20 and get two callers.
Flop is 99J
It's checked around to me.
What do you do?

What do you do? | In hand 1 you have 154.00 left and 96.00 plus 90.00 in the pot. So you stand to win 308 plus 186= 496 total if you call which is better than 3: 1 return on your money. Chances of pulling a flush are about 36% so its a sensible bet but you don't have the nut flush. If hes raising with a higher flush draw or has a set and pairs the board you're toast. I fold.
In Hand 2. I'm not folding KK's with 85.00 left and I'm not letting an A come on the turn for free. I raise 60.00 and hope they fold or someone with a jack calls me. If I get raised I'm calling. |

I should point out that. I am not on the flush draw with two pair. I was trying to scare it off.

You can't flop two pair and a flush draw.
