blinds 125/250. hero has 5980 chips. utg has 8565 chips.

haven't played with him before, and fairly new to the table. has a high vpip though.


hero in SB with Qs4s

utg limps for 250, fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, hero completes for 125, BB checks.

(pot 950) flop: 8s Js 10h

hero checks, BB checks, utg bets 375, hero calls, BB folds.

(pot 1650)

hero checks, BB bets 1650 (pot) hero???...


i don't really know what to put him on. i mean an 8 is possible here but not very likely. and when he does have an 8 i don't see him having a boat so i still have 7 clean outs to a flush and 3 9s. same thing with any strait.

other thing is how wide my range because i just limped from sb. so if i shove he still has to call 3500ish and an 8 is easily in my range so he would probz have to fold a weak jack or any draw. (which it seems like a draw to me)

so i was thinking a shove gets him off most hands and the ones it dosen't i have 10 outs vs a 8, 11 vs 11 vs a strait and 15 vs AJ type of hand. (but i think he is folding more than calling.)


what are your opinions?

missing the turn card i think, my guess is he probably has a made hand, but it could def be weakish, and he doesnt want you to keep drawing at your str/flush

crap, sorry.. turn is an 8 (non spade)

fold turn
