Straight Flush
Playing $1/2 PLO at a new game for me. It is a weekly game that has been running for a few months at a private club.
General read in the game/players is that the vast majority of them are loose passive. Calling very loose preflop and on the flop. Chasing any draw if they think they can win a big one.
Very few 3 bets preflop and when they do happen it is almost always AAxx. There are maybe 1-2 players that are slightly better than the above description.
Hero is in the HIgh Jack with QJ98 one suite.
There was a raise to $5 from early position, we call, Button calls as well as the blinds.
5 people to the flop, pot is $25
Flop comes J 8 6 rainbow
SB bets $25, BB folds, the early position preflop bettor calls the $25.
Action is on Hero.
We have a stack of $600. The preflop raiser covers us and the rest of the players have about the same stack size as Hero.
The big stack is the only player I consider to be slightly better than the rest. The button is pretty much a super nit OMC. SB I consider one the average players for this game, loose passive.
So what do we do with top 2 pair and a gut shot and no back door flush draw.
