Question
In your six-max game online it’s raised under the gun by a tight regular to $8. You call on the button and the blinds fold. The flop comes Q♥ 5♠ 3♣. UTG bets $14 and you call. The turn comes the K♠ and he bets $40 you call and the river comes A♦. UTG bets $100.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Raise All-in
Raise all-in. It’s unlikely that he’ll fold for just $100 more in a huge pot so just shove it in and expect to be called by any number of two pair combinations.
- Call (34%)
- Raise All-in (58%)
- Fold (8%)
