Pretty Suited Connectors
cost me thousands, as posted on rgp
Foxwoods 1/2 nl HE. The table is about 7 pros/regs and 3 donks.
utg pro opens for 15, 3 callers, I call with 96s and 350 in my stack, utg covers, other stacks are all over the place.
5 to flop. Pot 65$
Flop 9 6 7. r I check, pfr checks, caller one bets 45, two folds. I check raise to 150. PFR folds. the flop bettor doesn't look concerned, in ten seconds he raises to 260. I asked for clarification and he said he raises another 110$.
That's a min raise, and I ...
I table my hand trying to get a reaction, he still doesn't look concerned. I decide I am only beating 76 and fold.
He didn't show but said he had a set of 9s. No clue if he's telling the truth.
The suited cards looked so pretty, and how the heck did I lose 165 with them and not make it to the turn?

tough hand, money. I think it's a good fold. But you know what have been a better spot to fold.
preflop, yeah. Something is wrong with me, I auto call with those if it's not a big raise. Must be those years of limit hold'em.
I am wondering if preflop is a good spot for a squeeze play. Reraise to, say, something between 70 and 100. What kind of hands do the players in between coldcall with?
I think they have a middle of the range type hand. As for the squeeze, there is a utg raiser who probably has a very tight range and would need a lot of respect for me.
yeah, very good point. tight utg raiser is a definite problem. but you are repping basically JJ+ by making it $100+ to go. unless he has QQ+ he's in a tough spot. (He might go AI with JJ and AKs also).
if that guy folds everyone else probably does too... like dominoes. still all things considered it's probably not a good move unless utg has a wider range and your image is ubernitty & tiltless
