Comments

Villain made a strong bet into 2 players OOP.

No reason for me to believe that I am ahead and could only be drawing to a flush.

Easy Fold?

I would have called the turn. Wonder if it's a losing play. ;p

Gut feeling is that he is also on flush draw and is trying to end the hand here. Comments?

Calling turn is most likely a losing play since i hv only abt 20% equity in this hand n the villain is telling me that he liked the turn card, ESP in 3way pot which indicate strength.

Therefore, with close to a pot size bet, I do nt hv the pot odds to carry on with this hand.

Haha! I keep having this mentality that he is making a play here and would call to catch him. But I guess it's also true that mathematically you do not have the odds to continue.

It really boils down to his image and any reads on him, should I decide on the hero call. And it also depends on the image you want to build and I want him to perceive.

If I think he is making a move here, then I think I shld raise his turn bet n then fold if he continue to show strength.
By calling, pot will be ballooned to abt $16 n he is most likely going to bet river again. A river bet is most likely big, most probably above $10.
And unless I hit a flush or ace (which may nt be enough to win), I hv to fold.

3way, oop, 2 overcard on flop no preflop 3 bet. Just check and fold no stunt to perform. any stunt done will just be - ev play in the long run and too expensive for advertisement
