Thank U 4 posting.
Preflop:
We want to over limp with hands that make nut hands. The only nut hands that 6h5h makes is 65432 with no 3 to Diamonds -Spades- Clubs or Hearts. So we can make the nut straight and still lose or make a flush and still lose.
So 6h5h is a much better 3 bet candidate than an over limp at 50 BB stack size. The problem is you have a calling station already committed to the pot. That means 6h5h becomes 0% 3 bet-80% fold 20% call.
So you decide to call.
Before the BB raises.
Did you have a plan for what to do in an 8 way pot on a flop of 852 rainbow etc etc?
Did you have a plan for flopping a flush draw but multiple players were still calling on the flop?
Were you ready to fold a flush if it was 3 players still in and a passive player gets all-in on the 3 flush turn card?
Now the BB raises to 2500 and the calling station calls. Pot is 8.6k -1.9k to call. 10.5k when you call.
The odds seem good but there is a big problem. What is it? Take your time and try to think what the problem is.
