Slowplaying the Nut Straight

Postby maxwn917 » Thu Jul 14, 2005 6:56 pm

This hand actually occurred in a LH SNG, I raise preflop with AKo and flopped the nut straight. I flat called on the flop and then got the dream card when the 8 fell, giving the two other players the idiot end of the straight. My question is whether or not the slowplay is a good idea. It worked like a charm, but with one player having an oesd, and the other having the lower straight on the flop, they probably would have paid a few flop bets along with what I did get on the turn and flop. Anyway, just looking for some ideas about slowplaying the nuts here.

PokerStars Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind t50 (9 handed)

MP2 (t1230)
Hero (t965)
CO (t1300)
Button (t470)
SB (t1930)
BB (t1905)
UTG (t2260)
UTG+1 (t1675)
MP1 (t1765)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with [Ah], [Kd].
UTG calls, 1 fold, MP1 calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, 4 folds, UTG calls, MP1 calls.

Flop: (7.50 SB, t375) [Ts], [Qh], [Jd] (3 players)
UTG bets, MP1 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (5.25 BB, t525) [8s] (3 players)
UTG bets, MP1 raises, Hero 3-bets, UTG calls, MP1 caps, Hero calls, UTG calls.

River: (15.25 BB, t1525) [6c] (3 players)
UTG checks, MP1 bets, Hero raises, UTG calls, MP1 calls.

Final Pot: 21.25 BB (t2125)

Results in white below:
UTG has 9d Qs (straight, queen high).
MP1 has Ks 9c (straight, king high).
Hero has Ah Kd (straight, ace high).
Outcome: Hero wins 21.25 BB (t2125).


P.S. Even though this is a tournament, I am still learning the ins and outs of limit, so I would appreciate comments about how to play this in a tournament, and also if it occurred in a ring game. I don't really think it would be that different, because we still had a full table, and the blinds were only in the third level, so it was still playing like a ring game, but if anyone has a different thought about that, I'm open to hear it. Thanks.

never played a limit tourney but I think you played this hand great as you got maximum value. If you raised the flop, they may have slowed down sooner.
