Title: Call or fold
Post by: Boba Fett on November 24, 2006, 03:08:15 AM
Stars $3 rebuy - Freezeout stages

Blinds 100/200 anti 25

1400 players left, 500 paid

Im on the button with 9c9h and call an early position raise from the table CL

I havent been at the table long but he's playing fairly solid in the time Ive been there, I have only played the blinds.  I have around 8k after calling his raise to 700, he has 22k left.

Flop comes J 8 2 all of hearts, opponent pushes all in

So..........call or fold?

I pass, if he is getting his whole 22k stack in the centre when there is only jusk over 1k in there then you should get his chips later.

yeah i think this is a marginal spot and you are deep enough with 40 BBs you don't need to be taking this close a gamble for all your chips.

Standard pass. It looks like he has something to protect, probably an ioverpair like QQ without the Qh. I don't like that either as so many call nut/big draws on the flop. In his spot, I would prefer to see a brick on the turn before committing my stack.
