Hi Maloco87,

I'm sorry, I've just come across this, so I'll move it to the Sit and Go Beginners Questions forum; it should get a quicker response there! :)

Best regards,

Mal.

easy fold on flop pot bet because you don't have the right odds to call.

much much easier fold on turn all-in as AQ straight is already possible and you don't want to risk your stack hoping he is bluffing on 3-way pot on flop and just hoping you'll hit that small 20% chance to hit straight on river.

don't always try to chase draws especially gutshots, and OESDs. it's much better if you play them aggressively than passively most of the times.

change your title, it's not a huge decision. poker is won by folding more often than calling. :)

I think that one can call the flop. Why? Our opponent is very agressive, so this gives us very good implied odds.

On the flop, you know that you are way behind. You are not drawing dead now, but repeating this situation 1000 times, you will end up loseing money. There are no implieds or the likes.

lol no. Look at the hand again. He has an open-ended straight flush draw, he's a favorite over any range.

Find a way to get the money in on the flop.

i was going to fold the turn as I kind of of knew i shouldnt put my whole stack on the line with a draw but i suppose i just took the gamble knowing if i hit, the final table had my name on it

i had an oesd flush/royal flush draw and if i hit a J i think i can take down the pot, but its all a learning curve and the next time im in that spot i can play if different

thanks guys

oh yeah. sorry about that. it was better if you have reraised it on the flop.

one very important, useful, and +EV tip for you though, learn to convert your hands to a friendly readable format.

you could use these:

you'd get reply with your posts faster than you think. :)

Just get it in on the flop where you have tons of equity against any hand. As played fold turn.

hey Maloco87,

just moving this to the hand evaluation forum so our hand judges can take a look :) posting hands in the correct section makes sure that they are answered faster.

Also it helps if you take a look at our hand evaluation rules. ive highlighted some below, but you can read the link for more info :)

4. Write an informative headline.
Your headline should include the limit, variation and situation at hand. Here is an example:
$1 SNG QJs monster draw

5. Use a hand converter.
Nothing is more painstaking and time consuming than trying to piece together the pieces of an unconverted hand.
You can use the PokerStrategy.com Hand Converter to convert hands from the most popular poker platforms:
PokerStrategy.com Poker Hand Converter

These rules help our hand evaluation forum run more smoothly. Thanks so much for your cooperation. If you have any questions, dont hesitate to let me know ;)

smiles,
wendy

exactly u r unlucky he flopped 2 pair,but by moving all in on the flop u give yourself 2 ways 2 win,most of the time he will fold most hands he's raising with + when he calls your draws are huge.IMO I wouldn't be able to get my chips in quick enough
