    Live cash: AKs, overs on 4-flush on flop

    $1/$2 game at Windsor. I had been building a stack and playing pretty well. The villain in this hand had been calling pretty much all of my PF raises, and calling me down with marginal hands, sometimes winning.

    2 limps ahead of me. I'm in MP with , and raise to $20 (I have ~$600 behind). Villain calls (~$300 behind), LP calls, EP calls. Pot is ~$80. Flop is:



    Check to me, I bet out $60. Villain calls, others fold. Pot is ~$200.

    Before I move on, would you have played the flop differently?


    Any two cards...

    I think you played that perfectly. My buddy sitting beside me here is a lot tighter/passive than i am, and he advocates a check, but i really dont think that disguises your hand as much if you hit. If you get your spade on the turn and all of the sudden are super agro, then the chances of the villain(s) calling your bet/raise goes down. With the raise, you are saying that you are throwing out a C-bet, so there really isn't much of a range you can be put on specifically.

    I think the bet of 60 is nice, and will wait for you post of the next card.

    if MP and EP both have under 300, a CRAI could be just what the doctor ordered.

    however if one of them is 400 deep, i like the bet.

    I was hoping for a little more feedback, but...

    The turn came, a

    Before I say what I did, what would you do with that card, first to act? Remember, the pot is ~$200, villain has ~$200, I have ~$500.

    hand

    as i see it i like your bet on the flop you have a lot of equalty in the hand and want to build a biiger pot ans stack off the villain

    when you get called and the off suit queen comes i like ptting max pressure on here and shippin it in . As i see it even if you get called you should have 15 clean outs unless he has quuen jack . I think the villian has so many hands that he has to lay down on the turn becuase they are no longer good enough to continue

    As George said you probably have 15 (and a for sure 12, spades and 10s) outs (and since you said villain has called with marginal holdings he might be calling with a worse A (though the Q might have hit it), let's assume the 15 outs, so you are about 2.5:1 underdog if called. If you are planning on calling an all in by the villian if he pushes (since you would be getting 3.5:1 on a call (700:200) you should take advantage of the fold equity by pushing (and also with only the 12 for sure outs you would be getting 3:1 odds and better than that pot odds). It would seem that all signs point to push.

    Oh and I don't think you play the flop differently, with that board and your hand you want to get more money in the pot.
