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.Pm for rakeback deals

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?

Any argument for calling or folding is crazy imoPm for rakeback deals

Originally posted by deyrzuited View PostThats a very general question, do u mean if i was in cutoff and villian was in bb?? If so and I was in cutoff and opened for 2.5bb and villian in bb with 70bb or so 3bet to 6.5 my 4bet shoving range is prob 88+ aj+ v an agg player or someone i have history with. It really is player dependent, obviously online stats give you a good indicator of opponents 3betting range so u can adapt and assign a correct 4bet range, this is a 100 live game where i doubt the standard is too high so no point getting too creative i think a standard 4bet shove in such circumstances would be 99+ aq+ and if were beat ul gg.
Live players dont go that mad especially capable players in €100 games. Im not getting it in quiet as light as you are happy to in the situation he points out above.
Sligoboi says he know villian but it appears villian may not know him.
If i raise to 2.5bbs in the cut off and im 3 bet by him there im sure as hell not 4 betting him there with 99. Il happily 4 bet qq up and AK but im leaving go of AQ and not sure what i do with JJ most likely 4 bet that but not loving it.
The simple fact is that villian will just have to credit bb with a hand he cant assume he is playing back at him.Pm for rakeback deals

Posted this on the BBV but maybe it'd be better here, does anyone here have money on Moneybookers? I wanna take advantage of a deposit bonus being offered and withdrawing money negates the offer, so can anyone here ship me 80 euro and within ~two days I'll ship back 85? It'd be most appreciated, sorry for the double post."In the world, there are many kings but there is only one God. I am God, I am El Tren" :{)

Lol cheers. Keep her hush please. Loads of people compliment me on it.
Had a feeling you were a IPBer last month when you owned me in a couple of pots at 100nl rush. Then put it together with your results in that thread. One hand in particular i remember was when you flatted ak in bb i think. And i rivered 2nd nut flush v your flopped nuts and you crai river. VNH. Just 2 tabling here in bulgaria waiting for EMOP tomorrow.
Is your nick some kind of reference to an old noir film with Orson Welles in it? Possibly not though.

Just a wuickie. Villian is playing 13/2 over 94 hands. Should we call and try to hit a set or a good draw or just fold seeing how tight he is?

I bought tableninja last week and am loving it. I'm really able to increase my volume without relying on the silliness of Rush poker. I've played 7k hands already this month. All I have to do is get profitable again and I'll be sorted."I can’t find anyone who agrees with what I write or think these days, so I guess I must be getting closer to the truth." - Hunter S.

Two quick hands here, just want some feedback on how to play them preflop. I feel that Im doing the right things but just running pretty bad. Any help appreciated. Ill post what I did and outcomes after feedback.
Playing live game 7 handed. Seems to be a few fish, but have seen some good laydowns aswell. Blinds 300/600. Im button with 24k approx and above average stack. 4 limps into me and I have JJ. What to do?
Same table blinds now 500/1000. Im MP with 22K stack. UTG and UTG+1 limp bout have me covered. I have 99. What to do?

Originally posted by ikilldurrr1 View PostFirst one, you should raise to 4kish. That should clear out a few of them and get the pot heads up or 3 handed with a premium hand in position. 2nd one i like a shove.
2nd I shoved and UTG calls with QQ.
As I said I feel I played them right and just got unlucky, ran into donks!

Just a quick one:
100bb effective.
Villain was something like 22/11/2 when I played this hand.
Villain opens Btn to .60.
Hero 3bets AdAs bb to 1.80
He calls.
Pot: 3.70
Flop: 9cqc3d
Hero bets 1.90
He calls.
Turn is 10s
Hero?
Again, Im sure this is pretty standard but its these spots Im unsure of as they come up a lot.Last edited by Theresa; 16-06-11, 00:48.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

Just played 1 table HU 50nl there the guy within a few seconds wanted to go 2 tables. He wouldnt really have much reason to assume im a fish he should guess he would have an edge alright tho but most hu guys at these stakes refuse to play 90% of the time.
He kept pissing me off so i sat in a 2k hu tableSPOILER( no intention to actually play a hand )that shut him up and he eventually left. It was pretty weird like if he felt he had an edge why not stay and 1 table he was down money aswell.Last edited by tipp86; 21-06-11, 16:27.Pm for rakeback deals

I guess it depends what you want to play. 25/50c cash on Party Poker is soft because the players are spewtastic. <$20 SNGs on both Stars and FT are soft enough too.

Live tourney. My image would probably TAG with a little bit of spew thrown in...
Playing 9k at 75/150 I make it 400 utg w/ Ako. 4 callers including blinds.
Flop AQx 2 spades 1 club
I cbet 1300>>>2000 (Thoughts on sizing?)
Btn calls playing 6.5k after the call. He thinks he's very good but in all honesty he has the tinyest of edges even in this live donkament setting, if even that! He's also tilted from when someone made "a horrible call" (his words) with 55 vs his ako and it held.
Turn 8c
