Hello,

Flop second pair isn't strong enough to call but I thought I could represent a strong hand like high PP (JJ+) by reraising and that only 22/66 and flushdraws would call. Is that a bit too optimistic?

PartyGaming - $0.04 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 4 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 81.75 BB (VPIP: 55.56, PFR: 11.11, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 10)
BB: 100 BB (VPIP: 13.89, PFR: 6.94, 3Bet Preflop: 4.55, Hands: 72)
CO: 54.75 BB (VPIP: 22.22, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 10)
Hero (BTN): 101 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 8♦ 8♥

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, SB calls 2.5 BB, BB calls 2 BB

Flop: (9 BB, 3 players) 6♥ J♦ 2♥
SB bets 4.25 BB, fold, Hero raises to 11 BB, SB calls 6.75 BB

Turn: (31 BB, 2 players) 7♣
SB checks, Hero checks

River: (31 BB, 2 players) 8♣
SB checks, Hero bets 15 BB, SB calls 15 BB

Spoiler

Hero shows 8♦ 8♥ (Three of a Kind, Eights) (Pre 52%, Flop 13%, Turn 5%)
SB mucks 9♠ J♠ (One Pair, Jacks) (Pre 48%, Flop 87%, Turn 95%)
Hero wins 58 BB

Hi MarliesB,

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: Given the board texture and player I think you are better off betting turn 1/2 pot as well for thin value and plan to check river back (unless we hit of coursE).

Your raise is not big so I expect even 6x to call the flop.

For value, so you are putting him on a flushdraw very often? Or do you think 6x will call?

if 6x doesn't call (or 77) why are we raising?

Flushdraws usually have at least an overcard so they are flipping with us on the flop and Jx crushes us.

So unless we can raise for pure value I wouldn't raise it here :)

With that being said I wouldn't be surprised to see 6x in his flop calling range.
