Preflop: You just sat down at the table and haven’t played any hands yet. Two players limp and you check on the BB with rags. The flop comes:

6♣6♦9♣

Flop: You check your trips. Player B goes all-in for his remaining $6.60 and Player F calls. What’s your move?

You might not be good here, but you probably are. Player F could be calling with a lot of hands that you beat, and the first raiser … well, I see people at low limits do this whacky shit all the time.

I call, hoping to get a lot more from F on the next two streets. I think I have the best here maybe from early position B did not raise with Ak or a big pair, but i’m gonna lose to pocket nines if any one has them, but I suspect the best F could have flat called with is a suited big nine.

I opted to call, hoping to check it down with player F.
We’re probably up against a 9 and a flush draw….and at this limit the flush draw WILL call the all-in reraise….so no fold equity there.

Who shoves $6.60 into an $.85 pot? This hand doesn’t make much sense.

you probably have the best hand her. if this is a decent table. who limps in with an X6. so the best thing to do is to push all in. because you will probably scare player f off. now you only have to worry about one person sucking you out.

The check on the flop was awful.

F isn’t on a draw. He’d have to be a complete idiot to call a bet that big on a draw. He called with a huge hand, hoping you would call as well to extrat more chips out of you on later streets. However, with that awful check, you have no chocie but to call/raise/ You checked hoping someone would bet, well… they did, follow through.

the check on the flop was great because it gave them a chance to overbet their nine or over pocket pair. there is only a 4% chance one of them has the other six, so you just made more money by checking than if you would have bet the pot.

A $6.60 bet into an $.85 pot makes perfect sense at $.10/$.25 – probably got K9 and is trying desparately to drive out the drawers… which of course is impossible at this limit, so Player F calls with his flush draw, ignoring pot odds and trusting in the Gods of Poker to deliver the goods. You all-in smugly with your trips, Player F The Faithful calls, and lo and behold, the river delivers the 2 of clubs. You curse your opponent for being so loose and plan his spectacular demise, while at the same time typing “nh :) ” into the chat box… Sound familiar?

This hand doesn’t make sense, So that means it does. Player B was bullshitting and F called him on it because he has a real had A6 maybe, I think he has you out kicked. Just call and hope to boat up or split the pot
