Title: Push or call ? Post by: M3boy on February 05, 2007, 02:37:21 AM Situation in this, you are in the £40k on DTD and have been in the top 20 right from the start.
You have 24k chips with 47 left (The money starting at 40) Your QQ you have just had to let go after making 2 continuation bets on a A K x K board (after being re raised all in on the turn) and are now down to 12.5K Blinds 400 800 (running ante of 75) - 4 minutes till 600 1200 You post the BB and get dealt JJ Its folded round to mid/late position who makes a standard raise to 2400 (He has total stack of 15k) SB folds Do you push and try to take the pot here or flat call hoping to avoid A or K ? Title: Re: Push or call ? Post by: CrestOfaWave on February 05, 2007, 02:43:02 AM Depends on whether u want to win the tournament or not. A race here may double you up if he has AK or AQ. However the standard raise could be AA,KK or QQ so you may be dominated then leave it to the flop gods to see how you fare... I have voted what I would do...

Post by: Hairydude on February 08, 2007, 01:20:24 AM I also have to say push- the reasons?? well there are no reasons.... who needs reasons when you've got (JackJack) -ah I love trainspotting- anyway only jokin
I've kinda thought this through and I would say it really depends on the player your up against and what kind of result your looking for(to scrape into the money or to just go for it and win)- You've said that foldings not an option which is fair enuf but I dont think it should be discounted-its a standard 3x BB raise so could quite easily be AA or KK or maybe even QQ-easier said when ur not in that situation tho- I'm guessing you pushed- he called with AK and hit on the turn/river????? My reason for pushing tho is that I would be playing to get back into the game with a chance of winning the whole tourny-not to mention practically guaranteeing finishing ITM-theyre are only 3 hands u are an absolute dog against(and even then you'll win 1 in 5) I wouldnt push all in tho- I would try to look as if I want the call and raise to about 9.5k- lettin him know that no matter what comes on the flop its all goin in anyway. I think calling with this hand and not a massive amount of chips is just far too passive-you are also out of position so if an ace or king does come and he has a holding such as 99 or 1010 you are giving him the opportunity to steal the pot- and also if he does have a holding such as 99 or 1010 you are giving him a free card to hit his set Title: Re: Push or call ? Post by: M3boy on February 08, 2007, 02:05:03 AM He had AQ
