Is this a standard shove

moneymakur

Against tag in a 6 max £0.25/£0.50 I raise with pr 8's get a call from BB. flop 8d kh qh so me set 8's I raise he goes all in for £23. Assume he has hit 2 pr or over pr or more likely flush hunting? he therefore has 9 outs (for flush) so 2/1 odds or if we discount to say 7 outs he has only 3/1 odds is this standard shove?

I eventually call hit quads he hits flush on turn

Opinions please

I don't understand your point really... are you saying should he be shoving?

Obv you are calling his shove every day so that's not a question, you played the hand great- for him, you could be c-betting with 9s-Js, in which case he gets you off, you could have AQ/QJ and fold to strength, and maybe even could be got off a hand like KJ/K10 (probably going nowhere with AK). And assuming you have hit a set/2 pair, he still has live outs with his flush draw, so I don't see he's done anything horrendously wrong either, he gets a fold out of that fairly often. Much better than calling and then having a tough decision on turn, and if you're calling with suited cards to fold with a big flush draw, you need to just fold preflop.

Don't see any real problems with the play anywhere personally.

Thanks... So your saying he's correct even with those odds?
