Calling His Re-Raise All In
Hi,
Assume that I called a raise preflop three times the blinds with 4 callers and with 26 suited hearts in a certain game. Flop was Ah 2s 4h. Then a player placed a bet on flop and so I re-raised twice his raise. I got 2 callers. Turn was 8h. Eventually, I was able to hit my flush draw however 2 callers seemed to be present. River came and was 6s. I then placed a bet approximately 200% of the pot so that I’ll look like as if I’ll be stealing the pot. First player then re-raised all in while I called thus making the pot a very big pot. Other player then called.
In the end, first player showed AQ while the other one, QJ suited hearts. The latter one won the pot.
Now, do you think it was a good thing that I called his re-raise all in or I should have just folded when I felt there was something wrong? Any thoughts?
Thank you.
Regards,
Freeman
Freeman,
Let’s back up. Your mistake wasn’t the all-in. It was calling the preflop raise with 2-6 suited. There was a raise and 4 callers. What made you think this hand was good? You flopped a flush draw, but the worst draw you could flop. Bottom pair and worst flush draw is not a hand to go to war with. The rest of the action to me is irrelevant, but when you bet the river and was raised all-in, you were beat.
You should have folded preflop.
