Birks: 7c 8c 9h 7h
Pre-flop:
mshalen folds. Flexi Digit calls. Cariola212 folds. oneforluck folds. MrEmmGee calls. Jmas calls. HugePeter folds. Birks calls. ZONE2005 checks.
I'd consider raising with this in late position. With 9987 DS I definitely would.
Flop (board: 6c 4c 7d):
Top set, flush draw, gutshot straight draw with a nine as back-up, gutshot straight flush draw. On the downside, I could be behind at the moment and behind on my flush draws.
Before looking below, what do you think my equity is likely to be against my opponent's range? He is competent, capable of complex plays.
Birks checks. ZONE2005 checks. Flexi Digit bets $.50. MrEmmGee raises to $4. Jmas folds. Birks re-raises to $15. ZONE2005 folds. Flexi Digit folds. MrEmmGee re-raises to $48. Birks goes all-in for $47.35. MrEmmGee is returned $.65
(uncalled).
Was this right? MrEmGee was the best player at the table, which made me slightly uncomfortable. He was unlikely to raise with a naked straight. On the other hand, if I flat call, I could be facing two oponents rather than one and have even less idea where I was. I suspect a flat call might be right, but I feel that I am better off with a head-to-head against EmmGee. Note that FlexiDigit was short-stacked.
Turn (board: 6c 4c 7d 5d): Gives me the top straight. My money would be going all-in here anyway.
River (board: 6c 4c 7d 5d 8h):
MrEmmGee shows 5c 8s 9c Js.
MrEmmGee has 5c 9c 6c 7d 8h: straight, nine high.
Birks shows 7c 8c 9h 7h.
Birks has 7c 9h 6c 5d 8h: straight, nine high.
If I flat-call the raise, I might get flexi digit in. I probably make an extra two bucks on the deal.
Without using pokercalc, what do you reckon my equity is? Was my play wrong, given that my pot equity was less than 50%?

33% equity
Date: 2005-09-23 05:10 am (UTC)So the only doubtful bet is the shove of the first $15, on the grounds that I might want two opponents all-in (one short-stacked, one deep-stacked).
