TP with suited flop

Postby poker2006 » Wed Nov 02, 2005 1:38 pm

Suggestions on playing TP with suited flops? I don't have problems letting go when I see aggression, but how do you play when players call you down? I usually assume they're on a draw. How would you play this hand different?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (9 handed)

Button ($58.80)
SB ($82.45)
BB ($120.75)
UTG ($234)
UTG+1 ($54.70)
MP1 ($127.95)
MP2 ($33.50)
Hero ($100)
CO ($75.50)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with [Qh], [Kc]. SB posts a blind of $0.50.
4 folds, Hero calls $1, CO calls $1, Button calls $1, SB (poster) completes, BB checks.

Flop: ($5) [9s], [Ks], [5s] (5 players)
SB bets $1, BB calls $1, Hero raises to $6, CO folds, Button folds, SB calls $5, BB folds.

Turn: ($18) [9c] (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $15, SB calls $15.

River: ($48) [Tc] (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: $48

Results in white below:
Hero has Qh Kc (two pair, kings and nines).
SB has 6s 7s (flush, king high).
Outcome: SB wins $48.

There is another way to play it and it might not be the best.

Question? How many times will you win this hand? Is it really a +EV? You might have the best hand but is it worth putting money in the pot?

I do not know the answer but it SEEMS to me that we should just give up in these hands on the flop.

That might be way too passive for some players and maybe I am all wet. Because I sometimes do just what you did. I want them to pay for a draw.

The odds that someone flopped a flush is about 119/9 just under - about 13:1 - it seems like long odds but I have seen it too often in real life.

With 2 pair or a set I will play it - but TP is a tough spot to be in.

Anyone agree with me? I am considering just folding the flop on hands like this? I lose a $1 but that is all. If he is drawing and misses you make a bunch.

Does the times you win overcome the times you lose? I don't know - anyone have an opinion?
