  1. I mean the open raise and then the flat are obv. suspicious with their stack sizes...after this flop and action what now? Should I just be folding pre?

  2. I definately would have folded preflop...flatting here actually seems pretty terrible to me with the the size of the other two stacks involved. Probably would have led on flop after SB checks. As played theres no way im folding here.
     
  3. Never folding...ever

  6. I woulda folded pre too, but I doubt you can fold now...It's obv. the original raiser you're worried about, and I don't like that his flop bet is so small, but I still don't think you can fold such a strong hand. Pusher is gonna have QK / TJ / AA / KK / flush draw I think more than K9, AK or a set.

    Edit: just noticed original raiser's stack. I think you can prolly take out certain pair/straight draw combo's pusher should have...Idk, I hate his flat. He SHOULD have AA or KK there, and you can beat those, but who knows maybe he's one big dumb donk...yes, I went there.

  7. Fold pre-flop of course.

    Initial raiser is not going to fold with this stack, so you are going three-way here.

    Your best scenario of AA from initial raiser and some pp from the sb which puts you anywhere between 45-51% depending on if the pair has a possible straight redraw. AA and naked hearts from the sb (which can only be 78 and a9 because of all of the usual flush cards are out already, both unlikely but possible holdings), puts you at about 40 percent equity. Both would merit a pretty easy call. However, the problem is each of them should have premium-type hands because both are going to the flop with seriously small stacks. Once AK or TT go into the mix everything dips to the point where you end up with 20% of equity in the pot.

    I was going to say snap-fold but this is far closer than I initially thought. I just think that if you click call here you are going to see AK here a lot from initial raiser and you are screwed. Frankly, calling or folding equally suck. Save yourself by folding pre-flop to such short stacks.
     
  8. I literally can't put dumbdonk on any hand. Played with him a lot and this is super weird by him. That said I wouldn't fold.
     
  9. Snap call, rake pot.
  10. BIGDONK has 1010 here 90 % of time ive played with him before and he likes to play hands dumb as fk pre imo and loves to mash pot with nuts/huge hands...please post results.
     
  11. Flatting TT here is just all kinds of retarded. Not saying you're wrong...but if you're right I def need to rethink my reads on him.
     
  12. Actually now that I'm looking at stack sizes again I can't think of any hand that's good to flat here...
