Poker Questions

Let's say you are absolutely sure of the given statement, what do you do?

Opponent has Over Pair, you hold 4-4, do you set mine: 1) in position 2) out of position 3) multi way pot

Opponent A has a set, opponet B has an over pair, you are drawing to the low straight flush for all your chips

In a 2/5 game early position raises to $25 with a Big Pair, you call on the button with Jh-10h, flop comes 9h-8h-3c, he insta shoves into the $57 pot for 200, what do you do, assuming you have the $500 starting stack

Final 3 of a SNG, button with 2000 raises to 450, you call out of the small blind with 3-3, you have 5000 in chips to start the hand, flop comes A-6-4, you check he moves all in, you do what?

Red Hand: Depends on where I am at according to what player is UTG

Green Hand: Where are we at? Flop? Turn?...how much is in the pot, how much do I have compared to others. Set worries me my flush, not straight flush, could boat him. Depends if it's after the flop or turn.....all about value.

Blue Hand: I would have to call...when you say "big pair", I can assume it's one of my Q's needed for the straight, however I am drawing so many outs with Q's, 7's, hearts....I'd have to call. Worth the pot IMO.

Black Hand: Fold instantly...pot isn't even close to being worth calling with 4th pair showing.

Here is a scenario for you.............

This is a make believe situation obviously because it would never happen I'm sure.....but lets say it did. What would you do?

You are playing in a 9 person sit and go for $100, meaning top 3 cash (50% 30% 20%). You are dealt (A,A) on the big blind.....EVERY person, from UTG to small blind pushes all in. Obviously you are confused here because of the action at the table and because of what you are holding.......here is my question, do you call OR fold?? Remember, there can be chopped pots so you aren't guaranteed in the money. What would you do??

[Seanie Mac]

you fold

so many of my friends have said call............odds are, even if it chops with 2 people, you are 3rd in chips no matter! You might be at overwhelming odds to finish better than 3, but you're going to cash!!

aces aren't a big hand with more than 3 people in a pot

odds are someone has called the all in with an A anyway so you are dead to a 4 card straight or flush draw.....it's not a hard ? and yet I've heard so many people say call because you have the best starting hand.

Can you clarify this one for me Seanie?

[Seanie Mac]

it's preflop, the big pair has raised UTG

[NightCap424]

So he's ahead of me in the action? Ok, well then I have position on him....just depends on how many people are left to act behind me. I'd probably call either way just because if there are multiple players in then the pot would be worth catching a card I'm assuming nobody else has called the raise with.

It's 3 questions, in position, out of position, and in a multi way pot

I guess I'm just a bit confused as to the wording.....am I deciding on the raise or has he already raised or what's going on? lol

In all 3 you are drawing into a made hand you fold in each situation. Situation 1 you have 2 outs, situation 2 2 outs, situation 3 no pot odds, drawing and he QQ which cuts into your outs, situation 4 best case scenario you running againstg 3 overs, you have find better spots. I might consider drawing with the jh 10h, but Id think better of it because there is only 57 in the pot.

It just said opponent B has an "over pair"....doesn't mean Queens, I just assumed that's what he meant. Changes things if it's KK or AA too be honest. A lot of the questions depend on the pot size and if you understand percentages. J,10 suited against K,K or A,A in that spot is probably favored post flop given the hearts and straight
