I would just call here, it's really likely at least one but probably 2 or 3 have 2p+ here, so just draw to your flush/straight with huge implied odds.

And when the turn bricks?

That's a very good point. What hands would you put the UTG & MP on? The read I had was dead on at the time, and this next set of actions made it really difficult to continue on with this hand:

Hero calls $0.56, UTG raises to $2.49 and is all-in, MP calls $1.64 and is all-in, BTN calls $0.31 and is all-in,


Hero???

I had only $1.39 left in my stack to call with. The price did seem like it was a must call to me as well. I'd like to see what a few others have to say before I post the outcome of the hand.

Personally I think we should be jamming this flop every time. We have so much action and so much equity. Even against a set we will be good enough of the time to be profitable.

Board: 4s 5s 9d
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 36.972% 36.91% 00.07% 4007524 7062.00 { As2s }
Hand 1: 19.680% 19.61% 00.07% 2129832 7062.00 { 99+ }
Hand 2: 21.674% 21.49% 00.18% 2333875 19605.00 { 99, 55-44, KTs+, QJs, 7s6s }
Hand 3: 21.674% 21.49% 00.18% 2333875 19605.00 { 99, 55-44, KTs+, QJs, 7s6s }

I really wanted to shove on the flop, but after the raise and min re-raise it was clear to me that I was up against 2 players who had sets. I normally like to draw as cheaply as I can to complete my straights/flushes.

Anyhow here is the outcome of the hand:

Full Tilt - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 3

BB: $2.95
UTG: $2.57
MP: $2.28
CO: $2.79
BTN: $0.95
Hero (SB): $2.07

Hero posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: ($0.03) Hero has 2:spade: A:spade:

UTG raises to $0.08, MP calls $0.08, CO calls $0.08, BTN calls $0.08, Hero calls $0.07, fold

Flop: ($0.42, 5 players) 4:spade: 5:spade: 9:diamond:
Hero checks, UTG bets $0.28, MP raises to $0.56, fold, BTN calls $0.56, Hero calls $0.56, UTG raises to $2.49 and is all-in, MP calls $1.64 and is all-in, BTN calls $0.31 and is all-in, Hero calls $1.43 and is all-in

Turn: ($7.68, 4 players) 2:diamond:

River: ($7.68, 4 players) 3:spade:

UTG shows 9:spade: 9:club: (Three of a Kind, Nines) (PreFlop 48%, Flop 56%, Turn 57%)
MP shows 4:club: 4:diamond: (Three of a Kind, Fours) (PreFlop 14%, Flop 5%, Turn 3%)
BTN shows 3:diamond: 5:heart: (Two Pair, Fives and Threes) (PreFlop 11%, Flop 3%, Turn 15%)
Hero shows 2:spade: A:spade: (Straight Flush, Five High) (PreFlop 26%, Flop 36%, Turn 25%)
UTG wins $0.39
Hero wins $6.78

Just shove, the pot is big. You have a lot of equity.

NH even with only 26% we are getting the odds to call here.

One other tip, fold this hand preflop. We are out of position and so easily dominated...

Hey Stubzy where did you get that thing that showed hand 0,1,2,3 with all the %'s from?

Thanks to everyone who posted in here, I normally don't post HH for analysis but this is really an eye opener as a tool I should be using.
