Hey, this hand has left a confused taste in my mouth.

Villain = Drunk and goes by the name Jackalof, no reads apart from his 69er value bets :f_p:

What line do I take on the flop? Is shipping ok or should I make a small raise and fold to a ship it, call and see a turn? I'm not sure ^^

Lets say Jackalof was a sober nit and played fairly straight forward, would raising x3 and folding to a ship here be the right thing or am I still shipping with overpair and 2nd nut flush?

Thanks ^^

what's your reason for raising the flop? which worse hands call/which better hands fold? in which shape are you against a shove?

this is oponent dependent, against drunk jackalof I'm shipping without thinking too much about it because I'm always up for gambling in friendly heads up matches :f_cool:

against a nit straight forward there are some hands just slightly better he is folding like bare jacks-queens-kings (which we are flipping) , he is not calling Q high FD's or worse pairs oop. against his shipping range we are doing pretty bad (overpairs+FD , I guess aces, nutfd+bigcards, some deuces altough unlikely) but we still have to call because of the odds.

for this reason I think calling and playing turn IP > raise/calling > raise/folding against a straight forward guy.


Very nice insights (and "didn't I tell you so?" :f_p: )

I was going to use this line, but since Jackalof beat me to it I guess i'll quote and type +1

+1

This is also a reminder to myself to type out my thought process in the future :f_p:

Thanks ^^

Edit: And yes you told me so, but whatever, luckbox :f_p: (Harmless stab at Jackalof for brutalising me this session :f_frown: )
