Title: What would you do?
Post by: ACE2M on September 08, 2005, 12:33:48 AM
just seen this hand on TV.

You find KK utg, you raise 2x the bb.

Button doubles your raise.

You call.

Flop comes Qs 7c 3c.

you check.

Button raises half the pot.

What would you do?

He lays the f**ker down.

Genius.

What can he be up against?

AA quite possible considering the re raise pre flop
KK not likely
AK possible but it takes some balls to re raise the chip leader who raised utg, in the very early stages with AK
AQ he couldn't re raise with that pre flop
QQ again very possible considering re raise pre flop.

he had QQ.

i would have been looking for the coat rack as well.

I don't think i have ever laid down KK in a position like that, you can be good but being great is something else.

when i'm reraised preflop i only ever put them on
AA
KK
QQ
AK
if they're short maybe a few more (all PP's).

re-raise pre flop and dont put yourself in a silly out of position flop game.

great laydown

do you lot tend to re-raise with QQ in response to an early position raise in the early stages?

I only ask because I did last night, the early player re-raises, and then it gets tough...........

I called

rag flop, he bets, I raise, he re-raises.......blah blah blah


He had KK

If there was an early raise and I am holding QQ I would re-raise to get a feel for if I am ahead or not.  If the first player then comes over the top again you can be pretty sure that your facing AK, KK or AK or a nutter !!!

And once you have more of an idea of what you are facing you can fold or fish .............

I sort of knew it had to be AA/KK but don't you ever get curious? Don't often see the re-raise to the re-raise with AK!

I suppose Redsimon can empathise!!

Agreed - I get curious but once you get busted a few times (or a few hundred in my case) it starts to get easier to fold.
