Tricky Spot in Limped Pot at 2-3 - Page 2 - Live Low-stakes No Limit Poker Forum

to fold out J9/Q9/K9

I thought this villain was more likely to call with spade overs than hands like that and would obviously fold those on rivers if they bricked or value own me if the flush hit.

ETA: With top pair and flush redraw I don't mind GII on this flop against basically any hand. Almost nothing is crushing us on this flop.

Well, getting it in against a set would be a pretty big mistake.

Also, even getting it in against a TP hand (where we are ~50/50) isn't a huge fistpump simply because there's no real dead money in the pot worth winning. I mean, sure, the extra FE gives us a slightly winning hand, but without the dead money, I think it's fine to play passively. Now if this was a raised pot with a bunch of dead money in the middle, different story (where now the dead money is probably worth fighting after).
