Just posting my ukipt exit hand just want to ensure it seems ok as i thought my IO exit hand was fine until ye put me in my place. Im also interested in the following
How do we play 1010,jj,QQ in my spot? Fwiw i fold 1010 & JJ is this horribly weak? I shove QQ i guess.
Do we shove KK,AA or 4 bet? I assume shove?
Also how do we play 1010 in his spot i personally call and take a flop in that situation vs unknown. I really hate 3 betting and calling my 4 bet shove. Obviously 3 bet folding is horrific aswell. Is 3 bet calling a shove really a good move i didnt even think about it until i realised villian was very good.
Here the post anyway
Blinds are 400-800 i raise to 1.9k in ep and new guy to table makes it 5.6k in lmp i dwell for a few seconds count my stack and shove for 24k in total he takes a few seconds and calls with 1010
Im pretty sure its perfectly ok to get it in here for 30bbs with AK. Any thoughts ? Good,bad,indifferent?
I didnt like the call with 10s i think its a fold with no history i assumed it was just a random player but i think from looking at the pics that its actually gavonater so now im also interested in whether my thinking about folding 10s there is wrong. I mean i probably dont 3 bet them vs an unknown so it plays different.Pm for rakeback deals

What's your range(or range you can give) for this move in BB?Originally posted by Emmet View PostQQ+Originally posted by Caf View PostThe bet size of the BB doesn't look sick strong to you?
Obv I ran into AA but the point of me posting was to see if villain's range could have been shortened. At the time I gave a range of QQ+, like Emmet said, but the hand has played on my mind ever since, only because the thought of folding KK came into my head for the first time, albeit for a split second though. Instead I shoved.
Looking back at the hand now and villain's bet sizing I think there is only one hand in my own range that makes that play(a small cold 4bet oop). I flat QQ/AK there, 4bet KK/AA but would make it a standard 2.6k+ with KK.
Hand is from a €320 IO sat so it's not your standard low stakes game either. I think that's how much the buy-in was anyway.
Any thoughts?

Like I said by PM, it's all down to how good the BB is, and how good he perceives the UTG+1 to be. Do you have any other info on them?
I think you've taken everything you need to take from the hand tbh, though you may have gotten the loots in bad, it will have added a layer of thought to your overall game imo. Something that can be extremely beneficial I think. It's not like you're going to get this scenario again very often, but seeing a Cold 4bet in this kind of scenario will make you think a bit again.
I got KK in 300bbs deep vs an obvious AA and thought I'd done nothing wrong - cooler move on blah blah, but Steve made me post the hand, and I realised that 4betting in the spot that I had couldn't have been even worse! It made me think much more about how I react to 3bets, with premiums in and out of position, and really made me think a lot more about what people do with what. Which seems to be the part of the game that when you can get mastery of, you can take the game by the scruff of the neck!

So I'm going to join a training website, which ones are people currently liking or is it all the one really? Good small and mid stakes nl 6 max and to a much lesser extent some good tournament videos would be what I'm after."In the world, there are many kings but there is only one God.

Quick one: Probably straight forward enough.
20nl
Effective stacks 100b.
I open AsKs in CO to $.70. BB (no reads/no stats) calls.
Pot: 1.50
Flop: KhQs6s
Villain checks. I bet $1. Villain raises to $4.50. I call.
Pot: 10.50
Turn is Ac.
Villain open shoves $14.80: Hero?This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

Yup Yup. Thats what I thought. I did snap so very fast.
Still, it made me re:thnk what his range would be for c/r the flop and then how this turn card affects it.
He prob c/r the flop with some flushdraws like 10Js 910s, 89s, 78s, 108s(if he defend with this). He'd also do it with KQ, 66 , perhaps 10J.
He prob shoves the turn with a lot of these too? Hows that range for you guys?
Also,
How much do you think he take this line with SFA given the CO v BB dynamics?This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

I was really just curious as to how the A on the turn affects his range and frequencies.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

Yeah but does he bluff over shove the A turn very often?
I dont think so, so then his range becomes 66, KQ, 10J? Maybe some combo draws like 910s, 108s?
Ultimately, Im just trying to see if my range estimation is ok since I havent played in a while.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

I don't have much experience playing tournaments to know how light/often people would sqz here in this position but being OOP I don't blame you for folding, it's going to be horrible to have to play on the flop given the stack sizes there will only be 2 streets of play left.
On an aside if we had about 40bbs here, would people be happy enough to back-raise allin?

Mentioned this hand in bbv but don't fancy starting a thread for it..you guys are good enough for me
23 runner €100+10 tourney in local casino. 15k starting stack w/ 2k early bird so Average starting stack was somewhere around the 16.5k mark.
4th hand of FT, villain has taken down the last 2 hands after opening pre and taking them down w/o showdown. Haven't played w/ villain at all in this tourney and don't have much table time with him in general. I know he's a good agg player, capable of moves and he would know I'm aggressive as well.
Blinds 1k/2k
Effective stack: Mine, circa 55k (Villain playing around 70k)
Folds to villain in co and he makes it 5k. Folds to me in bb w/1010.
What's our line? 3bet to induce? Shove? Call?Pining for Wa'erford

@ Emmet im not really a fan of folding 1010 there that seems pretty bad.
I think i take a flop and evaluate from there. I dont like 3 betting unless ive been 3 betting a hell of a lot and have some weird history.
Its not a nice spot to be trying to play oop but i think calling is the best of 3.Pm for rakeback deals

if he is aggressive, he's going to be putting you to the test on a lot of J+ boards, and we're going to have to make some fairly serious hero calls imo to warrant playing TT there.
If he fires flop and turn on QJ49 and leaves a psb left, are you calling the turn bet? I just think that vs an aggro player, its difficult to make money oop with tens here. He can have all kinds of junky Js,Qs,Ks and As and we're going to end up turning our hand into a bluff (even with the best hand) a lot to try and take the pot.

@sligboi - I'm not folding here. I also don't like calling. You're OOP with a mid pair and 25 Big blinds. I'd 3bet to 13k - with every intention on calling a shove - it is the final table. The problem you have is if the flop comes with overcards. A shove prelflop won't fold out JJ/QQ/KK but it might fold out 55-99 and ATo+ - not really what you want. Fuck - Tens are a shit hand IMO.
@pgodkin - There's an outside chance he's got AQ/AA - if so then NH. If you think that's what he has then call, but he also could have 66 or a raggy ace. I'm getting it all in here on the river after the CR. As per the hand - I'm leading all streets.
