Both hands from same tourney. £100 FO 20,000 starting stack, ~120 runners
Hand 1.
Blinds 150/300
I late reg'd so have only been at the table for one orbit havign played one hand where I called a raise with 33, flopped a set multi-way, got called on two steets and then just flatted a river lead when a back door flush got there- which he had
UTG+1 (~25k): limps 300
UTG+2 (~20k): limps 300
MP1: Raises to 3000
I'm in SB with AK off and ~ 12k ...
Haven't played with the lad who made it 3k before, felt like I didn't really have any FE and wasn't keen to race so early but dumping seems puke, as does flatting oop even with 40bb???
Hand 2:
blinds 1000/2000 28 left, 12 paid, avg ~ 85000
Cut-off (45k) opens 6000
I flat on the button with TT (100k)
SB shoves for 30k
Cut-off shoves
I flatted cos his 3x open seemed weird as hed been 2x ing so was happy enough to play in posiition and evaluate the flop and I was happy to call off versus the SB or BB HU.
The cut-off seemed reluctant to put in his chips and I was 99.9% sure he wasn't acing so could take AA/KK/QQ out of his range, SB is a decent player and is never going to have an airball here, ever, but could have suited broadway & all pairs .
The answer here might be one for pokerstove (i'm getting ~ 2/1), but the broader question is even if we decide this is slightly + EV to call is it too early too be risking half your stack 3 way with only 6 k invested or is 25 or so players left in a tourney where only 1st/2nd matters the time push any spot you think you have?
Cheers
