Poker Strategy: Combo Draw Facing A Big All-In

Poker Strategy Info And Source:

In this hand we flop bottom pair, but the turn gives us a lot of equity. We call a smaller shove from one player, and then face a big all-in from a loose villain. Do we have the pot odds to call?

  1. He had 36% equity against that exact hand and needed 40% to call. If we're really being results oriented it was the right fold.

  2. I like the fold here tbh, don’t see villain doing this very often with no sdv when he’s going to have to go to showdown anyways , if the sizing wasn’t so big I’d say call but he bombed it

  3. Math says fold dude. Don't beat yourself up over it. You were last to act so you would have ended up putting your money in behind and just getting lucky. Very disciplined and skillful fold tbh.

  4. Seem like a fine fold to me. When someone is already all in, it makes no sense to bluff, since you still have to beat the guy, who is all in. Even a maniac probably understand that, so its kind of optimistic to assume, he is on a wild bluff with A8 or KJ of hearts. And if he always has a made hand, the math simply does not add up. Also we get to see his hand, so if we are staying at the table, we get valuable information without paying for it.

  5. TJhh maybe? i'd fold because a heart draw is probably no good, and an 8 is questionable too

  6. These are so helpful. I don’t have any “poker friends” to talk hands with, don’t have a mentor or coach I can speak with in person, and didn’t grow up in a family that gambles or plays any poker at all. I do know through studying and watching videos of players and coaches I respect like Bart and others that talking about hands is one of the best ways to improve your game and this series of videos really proves that to me.

  7. U made the right fold because you didnt have the correct information about how villain plays postflop. He checks back top 2 on a rainbow board on the flop in position. If you made this call, you lose in 2 out of 3 realities. You now know this: Main villain bets rainbow flop with air bluffs gutshots and draws and maybe top pair. Villain checks flop with top 2 or better on rainbow board. If he was bluffing he wouldve fired on the flop to take the pot down since he acts last postflop and preflop agressor gives up the lead by checking to him.
    He plays weak when he is strong and strong when he is weak. Preflop maniac play doesnt mean postflop maniac play. You didnt have the correct information on how he plays postflop. Dont beat yourself up over this because you accidentally made the right laydown and gained info about villains postflop play, its too bad you had to leave. But you were behind with 1 card to come, you lose in about 2 out of 3 realities. In 1 reality out of 3 you suckout and that happened to be in the reality that this all unfolded lol
