Full house Vs Royal Flush

edited November 2010 in The Poker Clinic
I lost and to be honest, dont mind losing to a royal flush, I think I played this hand pretty well, though I was up against a big flush but was well aware there could be a royal flush out there after the river. But I think I had to call the all in bet. Thoughts??

    only thing id say raise or fold pre.
  • edited November 2010

    Maybe, but I was on the button and getting good odds to call pre. Lucky I wasnt playing a cash game I suppose, that coul have cost me my whole stack.

    Played pretty terribly tbh.

    Fold or raise pre (preferably fold).
    Raise more on flop.
    Bet more on turn & river.

    You should easily have been able to get stacks in so not sure how you managed to leave yourself with 1310 chips out of 1730.

    I had the house early though, didnt want to scare people off, i wanted people to get their flush draws. Only put 30 in pre to a pot of 150 on the button with an average hand. If i hit like i did massive implied odds in my favour.

    You do not have implied odds with this hand. In fact you have reverse implied odds because I doubt you'd be folding it too easily if you hit top pair. You are going to flop trips and turn a house with it hardly ever. K9o is a junky hand, just throw it away.

    Also anyone calling with a flush draw on the flop got there on the turn, then you decide to bet 60 into a pot of 810 for some reason meaning that we cannot get stacks in with a psb on river. Obv when we have a fh this is not a good thing.

    I watched quads lose to a str8 flush yesterday. That has to suck for the quads.

    I don't mind the limp on the button, you're in position after the flop, it's only 1.7% of your stack, it doesn't really matter what your cards are as long as you were willing to use your position after the flop.

    On the flop, I'd be raising much more, it's a dangerous drawing board, I'd be making it 450-600.

    When the turn comes, take away the end result, it's the perfect card for you, the open-ended straight has hit, the flush has hit and you have a full house, you have two opponents, you've got to get value here, it doesn't matter if one in two times you scare away your opponents, if you can get all of your chips in the middle one in every two times, you'll benefit in the long term.
    If the raise was bigger on the flop, you could push your 1200 into 1600, you're probably getting at least one of the players calling, possibly two.
    I can understand the 60 bet if you have a read that your opponents are good players and are likely to be raising your weak bet but I prefer the bigger bet, maybe 300-450.

    Again on the river, I would have bet bigger.

    You were always going to lose your stack here, one tip here is don't be afraid of scaring away your opponents, it's better to win a few small pots as well as a few massive pots, rather than a lot of average sized pots.
