OP, please do not post results. It biases responses and almost always turns in to a ****-show. Get up to your decision point and then stop.
This hand is always a fold pre UTG. Bad hand and bad position mean don't play, even if you are by far the strongest player at the table. You just cannot overcome a disadvantage that great consistently.
AP, flop is fine with TP and 2ndNFD.
Turn is horrible. Why are you playing backward? You now have the second nuts and a hand that doesn't look like a flush (due to your flop bet). You should often get bets called, but he's never taking over the betting for you without having the flush himself. Get value!
AP, OK, he bet. His range is basically a little bit of air that is hoping you're afraid of the flush, and a crap-ton of flushes. I'd go ahead and shove it in here. You're committed and another club will kill your hand (if he has, for example AcTd) or your action (vs eg. 8c9c).
AP to river; sigh/call. He's never betting here with worse than Jc, and often only with the A, but we're committed with the second nuts and a few combos in his range that we beat.
As to topping up, put a few greens in your pocket when you buy-in and use them for top-up if you get below 85bb. Takes no time at all, and if it is notied at all, it just makes you look a little degen.
But most of all, fold pre. This hand is an example of the cascading effect of a small bad decision early. It is very reminiscent of the old limon quote:
Quote:
I love all of the posts that say disregard everthing I did before I got check raised all in on the river and just tell me what to do now. Its like, “hey Dad its me billy and im in jail. Don’t ask me why I got drunk (standard). Don’t ask me why I drove (yawn). Don’t ask me how my car ended up in a 7-11 (meh). Just tell me how to keep from getting butt****ed tonight.
The truth is the beginning of the hand is the MOST important part…BY FAR THE MOST IMPORTANT PART. Just like w/ 9 ball every shot sets up the next shot(s).
