$25 Bounty GGMasters - Multiway tough spot

$25 Bounty GGMasters - Multiway tough spot

On the turn I considered all 3 options. Fold because would hate to face a BB shove, Call for the implied odds and bounties, Jam for slight amount of fold equity. Folded to a jam because I had the BB labeled as recreational and didn't expect enough bluffs to get the rights odds. Any thoughts?

If I am reading the action correctly and you are last to act, you have no implied odds for the pot. Implied odds would exist if you hit flush and players have chips you can win. I don’t see the bounties.

I think fold was correct, as the all in bet denied you the right odds to call as it looks like you have to call 100 to win 240 (est)

You could have raised on turn and pot committed yourself but just because it hit on river doesn’t mean it’s a good move but perhaps villian doesn’t shove or even folds to your aggression.

As played, I fold.


Sorry I left this part out on the post, The tough part for me is on the turn when MP bets and action on us. I am not sure if we can call there when BB can shove and push us out of the pot, meanwhile folding and jamming seem off as well for their own reasons.


Just fold turn. You're not getting the right odds with only one card to come and you have 2 players behind you.

Might be better to raise the flop and turn your hand into a semibluff since with the pot sized bet the villain has already made it clear getting to the river will be expensive. That way you can potentially push out a 9 and also check back the turn to fully realize equity.


I think the turn call of 31 was fine bc if one of the other players check calls (again as did on flop) you are getting almost true odds and have implied odds. If someone else called the shove, you are getting close to the right odds there too, problem is they all folded.


I'm with LifeNitFL here. Turn is definately a fold. It doesn't matter that Dearlie who opens the betting seems to be a real fish who bets twice into three other players even though he wasn't the preflop agressor,. Only to fold to that player's shove on this 9 high no flush no likely straight board. Might be true we may have odds to call a shove with at least one more caller. But we don't know what will happen behind us. And remember this: Just because we have the odds to call in a certain situation doesn't mean it's always the right play to put ourselves in what might very well turn out to be such a situation.


Consider squeezing pre. Consider raising flop, potentially checking back turn. As played fold turn.


I see three possible straights on the turn. Even with a caller of the shove, I fold because I am barely getting the right odds and I discount my A outs to 0 if someone has a str8.

I think you sometimes have to call w nut flush draw for your tournament life on an unpaired board. I don't think this is one of them.


The time to play this aggressively is on the flop, not the turn. The pot sized lead looks like value trying to deny equity, and you have him covered, so it's actually a good spot to raise the flop. If you get stacks in on the flop, worst case is you're up against top set with two streets to draw to the flush.

As played I fold to the first turn bet.


It's ok to fold pre as well.


I wouldn't fold pre this deep and with bounties. It's gotta be early in the tournament-- 2BB when you're starting with like 180BB is totally fine.

This isn't a terrible spot to squeeze sometimes, although I fear you may be too deep to squeeze here (i.e. unless you go pretty big, you might not get enough folds to make it a good idea).
