[Feb 6 02:24:55] : I havent got round to learning pot odds yet but im guessing pot odds are fold. On that flop im thinking he has QT, tripped, K high or has flushed. Any heart beats the flush, a Q beats his straight, an ace beats his K high...he might have trips though but who goes allin with trips on a one suit board!!...... drawing a better straight and flush I took the gamble. Ive been studying this hand and have decided in the same situation I probably would have done the same. So opinions much appreciated please. Keeping in mind it was a do or die hand that I could easily have walked away from. Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: stewart on February 06, 2007, 03:52:47 AM imo if you think he has flop trips, or the strait you cannot call this hand, if u think he has the hand he got then u can
Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: Horneris on February 06, 2007, 04:06:43 AM Id have probably called Suzanne. You were only a 48/52 underdog when the chips went in.
And you dont have a huge stack, and its an oppurtunity to get one. And you already have 300 in the pot. People will say it looks like he had 2 pair and you should fold, but id probably still be greedy and gamble. Marginal imo. Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: thetank on February 06, 2007, 04:09:44 AM I'd call him for the above reasons maybe, but mostly coz I don't like pissing about with microstacks in an MTT.
If I can even see the droppings of some pot odds, I'll chuck my change in there and gaze on indifferently as to the result. Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: AlexMartin on February 06, 2007, 03:46:50 PM If he has any of the hands you think he has you cannot call for pot odds against that range. But then you have a teeny tiny stack so id gamble.
Its a marginal call imo. Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: suzanne on February 06, 2007, 11:25:49 PM Thanks guys.
I still think given the same situation I would have done the same. It was a gamble but as you say it was a good chance to get a decent stack. Funnily enough I have just played a very similar hand only I had the K 10 and the guy hit...oh well. Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: NoflopsHomer on February 06, 2007, 11:32:08 PM There's nothing wrong with raising this preflop I think.
Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: Nem on February 07, 2007, 12:18:07 AM Or checking the flop
Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: temp0r on February 07, 2007, 12:26:55 AM agreed with the 2 above posts. to be honest he's not limping with a smaller holding than A10 at this stage anyway so why not shove preflop if you're so desperate to double up.
i don't understand the weak bet on the flop. surely a check raise all-in is in order here? but you have to call still. you're drawing all over the place. Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: suzanne on February 07, 2007, 12:47:25 AM I would not raise preflop with A10...been caught out too many times with that 1.
I did consider going allin but thought a weak bet might have been seen as strong...when he went allin i knew he had a decent hand (expected better than what he had) and yes it was a total gamble. That is why I am asking was it a bad move ? Im thinking now it was. Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: thetank on February 07, 2007, 04:39:46 AM I would not raise preflop with A10...been caught out too many times with that 1. He had KT, would he have called a raise? If not, then you have been caught out here for not raising with A10. Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: bhoywonder on February 07, 2007, 08:50:40 AM you gotta go with ur instinct here suz
any sniff at doubling through has to be seized upon...if u had maybe 3500 i pass good call,and a little unlucky Title: Re: Was I wrong to play this hand? Post by: Royal Flush on February 07, 2007, 08:53:28 AM but thought a weak bet might have been seen as strong. You bet 80% of the pot...... I probably raise pre flop here, when i don't i am either check raising all in or leading for 4-500 depending on the player. |
