very marginal. how far off the money are you ect? any read? It was paying top 27 and there was roughly 40 left $200 for 27th and $7,800 for 1st no read ....he must be fairly sure ill be calling , so im assuming he wasnt "making a move " Title: Re: opinions ? Post by: temp0r on February 13, 2007, 10:55:22 PM i wouldn't be raising at that stage of a tournament with such a hand. if you fold you still have a decent stack left. whereas if you call and lose. like i'm pretty sure you would be. you have a mere survivalist stack. it depends what you want out of the tournament. because you've raised i'm guessing you're in there for a final table spot. in which case take the gamble and pray for a small pair.
Title: Re: opinions ? Post by: sweet potata! on February 15, 2007, 05:55:38 PM Ok between me and u tempor , as it seems nobody else gives a rats ass !
I ended up calling i thought it was v v close , but decided that with 9k back if i lost i could still do some damage , he flipped over QQ and held up ! AS u said it prob depends on what u want out of the tourney at that stage i was looking to gather some chips and make a push for the ft so it was JUST about a call for me On the plus side i did manage to still eek my way to the final table eventually busting 8th , i havent got 50p on me so i wont mention the hands involved ;) ... it was a 3outer tht beat me and i woulda been 3rd in chips if i held , so i was close enough, and it possibly proves i had enough to make a fightback after a looooose call Title: Re: opinions ?

Good post. You can make moves like this but only when you're closer to the bubble and people tighten up. Title: Re: opinions ?

Post by: NoflopsHomer on February 16, 2007, 04:32:30 AM I'd pass preflop, but I'd call here, you're pretty much a pushbot whether you pass or call unless you call and win.
Title: Re: opinions ? Post by: JungleCat03 on February 16, 2007, 09:53:47 AM The sbs only got 7 BBs so his push doesn't necessarily mean you're dominated as he will probably be pushing any pocket pair and things like KQ.
Even when you're dominated, you're getting well over 2-1, making a call +ev in straight equity terms and the difference between 15k or 10k isn't massive so I would take the positive gamble and call. Title: Re: opinions ? Post by: AlexMartin on February 19, 2007, 03:20:06 AM Call, deffo +EV play against his range and ur pot odds.
