Flopped set - live cash game
deanp27:
did you say you have a set?
pokerpops:
yep - it"s an obvious call and yes he had the flush draw ( kc tc )
club on the turn and no help on the river but the bit that interested me was the response of one of the regulars who said "You should have just called the flop bet and then you could have got away from that..."
Do we want to "get away from" a situation where we"re 2:1 favourite on the flop?
MAIR:
I don"t play cash much, forgetting the flop, this is pre, but tbh utg 10 handed, yeah you have limped in for £1 but when it is raised to £6 and there are 3 to act after you, I cant see im calling £5 raise with 22. You say you are happy to see the flop limped for £1, why call the £5 raise with 22?

tbh - this is just one of those bad beat posts that ppl hate in this academy section. Not getting it in on this flop w/ these stack sizes and the fact that we crush some of his stacking off range is laughable. It doesnt matter what our equity is against his hand, it matters what our equity is against his range which makes this a fairly obvious get it in.

Okay, so its a BB, but don"t put people off posting in the academy section, there is few enough posts here as it is.

You"re never just calling the flop bet here, you can sse the draw is out there, and you have to make him pay for that draw.
