Title: Call or Fold
Post by: GlasgowBandit on May 08, 2007, 08:43:40 PM
Your mid position with TT in the hole.

You call a pre flop riase of 400 from UTG.  And there are other 3 other callers.  Your notes on UTG read "loose player likely to push with bottom pair or any draw"  And sure as heck he pushes.

3 hearts on board J 6 3.  Now its early part of a deep stack tourney is this just a standard fold or should I consider making a call?

Early in a deepstack and you're calling pre-flop with TT you have to treat it as a middle pair (and so you're hoping to hit your set) -  I'd be folding here.

No point risking your tourney on what could be a coin-flip (at best).

Given what you know about him and given the betting that's gone on I'd say he's probably got the Ah with a non heart K or Q kicker

So by my count he has 13 outs and is a slight favorite with two cards to come. I think that's the best you could hope for. He could also have AA, KK, QQ and is trying to drive out anyone with a heart.

There's also still 3 people to act behind you who could have anything so on balance I'd say this is a fold.

I insta passed but was having 2nd thoughts when i seen our mug make the same move from the SB and BB in consecutive hands I nver had naything at all on either occasion worth calling with.

I managed to take him out a few rounds later when my KQ outdrew his AK well he did bet into me when I flopped nut flush this time :-)  Happy days!
