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? Title: Re: Call or Fold Post by: kinboshi on May 08, 2007, 09:12:18 PM 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). Title: Re: Call or Fold Post by: johnbhoy76 on May 08, 2007, 09:14:57 PM Your mid position with TT in the hole.

Now its early part of a deep stack tourney is this just a standard fold or should I consider making a call? 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. Title: Re: Call or Fold Post by: AdamM on May 08, 2007, 09:35:04 PM easy pass for me.
no set no bet. when the flop comes J,10,3 its $$$ Title: Re: Call or Fold Post by: GlasgowBandit on May 08, 2007, 10:02:52 PM 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!
