Spoiler

$13.84 pot ($0.30 rake)
Final Board: 9 3 9 K 4
Hero showed A T and lost (-$5.96 net)
MP mucked Q K and lost (-$0.80 net)
CO showed 3 3 and won $13.54 ($7.58 net)
BTN mucked K J and lost (-$1.11 net)

CO: 37/33 over 31 hands however that's not important, I noticed that I do mistakes like these when I'm in deep pots i.e. not giving credit to villain... so my question is: How do I stop making such terrible calls? I mean I know it's 4way I should have known better than to jam and I wasn't on tilt or anything... help please! :f_drink:

Hey Joey1toe,

Preflop defend is fine.

Not the greatest flop situation for us since the board i paired and our opponent bets cose to pot in a 4-way situation. I'd probably check-call, but we actually need to be really careful if our flush hits.

The action on the turn is pretty insane, especially when 2 of the players have worse hands. We might be able to fold on the turn when someone raises. Even if we don't fold we can't be re-raising we can only smooth call. If we call turn we will possibly be folding river. We can't generally stack off with flush on paired board when the stacks are this deep.
