early in a £5.00 BH, no reads or note on other players.

Thinking maybe jam flop, but with stacks he's got to call anyway so I figure may as well see the turn.

    rarther gamble and shove - even though you have no FE - you could easily fold

    depends how much you like gambling

    never call though :()

    So shove flop or fold?

    I'd also agree with shoving the flop. We're committed and sticking the rest in on the turn regardless, and we have no fold equity, so it makes no difference really. Just stick it in, as there will be them times where you think you have no fold equity and our opponent miraculously finds the fold button, somehow.

    think this is a weakness in my game, had a similar situation in the Grand Prix at Dusk til Dawn on Sunday where I flatted a turn I should have shoved and ended up sigh foldinding the river when I had the best hand.

    Thanks for comments

    Well you haven't got the price to call, you have no fe - so the best you can hope for is shove - oppo's show 1 pr hands or weaker FD's and you have more equity - worst case they show you 2 prs/sets/straights/ace high FD

    if you shove your gambling in this spot - only good if you have some FE -

    You can also just fold and wait for a better spot

    depends on mood and oppo's but mostly I fold

    Yeah defo get it in on flop where you have most equity, obvz it goes in on turn anyway most times but it avoids you making a fold if you brick still having 50bbs behind having alreadt stuck in a massive chunk of your stack.

    Well, yes, maybe two bounties is tempting but why all-in by both. I'd expexced 88 or 77 actually and you did have fold equity too.
    I may have folded but certainly would have been tempted. A close call and those bounties are a tease, aren't they? Sometimes i do feel like a chance taken early on gains rewards later as you're able to call more desperate AI's with marginals and picck up bounties. That's why so many seem to race early in T's i suppose. Gl at the tables....

    When you post results you tend to get result orientated replies, bottom line is you only have K high FD on the flop with no FE

    fold />shove>call

    but you can't fold in BH can you )
