Easy Post-Flop Exercises (Page 3 of 4)

9h Th -- Late Position

You limped with 4 other players to see a flop of Ah Js 4h. An early position player bets and all fold to you. What factors do you consider.

• Cards: Given the nature of the board, you can be pretty certain that you are behind. But you've flopped a nice flush draw.
• Action: The early position bet likely indicates that the early position player has an Ace.
• Odds: It's going to cost you $1 to see the turn. Pre-flop $4 went into the pot,and the early-position player's bet ads another $1, for a total of $5. You are roughly a 4:1 underdog to hit your flush on the turn. This means that you're getting proper pot odds to draw for the flush.

Your move: Call. Trying to hit that flush has a positive expectation with that much money in the pot.
