Title: What would you do? Post by: Flea on July 15, 2007, 03:40:20 PM Hi,
Had this hand pop up on a recent William Hill hand in an MTT, low buy-in so lots of loose players but the following hand came when we were just outside the money and I'd just moved tables so hadn't observed everyone on the table for very long. I'm And170570 in the below hand: Game #5059162114: Hold'em NL (150/300) - 2007/07/15 - 15:13:54 (UK) Table "2" Seat 1 is the button. Seat 1: Jinnja (4977.50 in chips) Seat 2: Lance2604 (8007.50 in chips) Seat 3: lurrr (2435 in chips) Seat 4: Evie50 (3700 in chips) Seat 5: steveAA (1550 in chips) Seat 6: 06flocko (9430 in chips) Seat 7: Darren257 sits out Seat 8: Jean11084 (10259.99 in chips) Seat 9: And170570 (4095 in chips) Seat 10: Kurrupt (9270 in chips) Lance2604: posts small blind 150 lurrr: posts big blind 300 ----- HOLE CARDS ----- dealt to And170570 [ Kc Ahrt] Evie50: folds steveAA: folds 06flocko: calls 300 Darren257: folds Jean11084: folds And170570: raises to 1200 Kurrupt: folds Jinnja: raises to 4977.50 and is all-in Lance2604: folds lurrr: folds 06flocko: folds At this stage the average stack was 5,500ish so I was already below this and rightly or wrongly just committed nearly a third of my stack - what would you do faced with this?? Title: Re: What would you do? Post by: boldie on July 15, 2007, 04:18:15 PM call. the raise you made was ofcourse fine aswell..nothing wrong with calling here.
Title: Re: What would you do? Post by: AdamG on July 15, 2007, 04:40:11 PM call low stakes you could be ahead of a few reraises here... AJ AQ or in a race with most hands that have reraised u ...mid Pairs...low pairs...most of time ur not completely dominated as most wouldnt insta ship on u here...

BUT will hill is the only site i have ever played on that i seem to run Ak into AA, wouldn be surprised if thats what they held lol! In seriousness though he pronanly has 1010 JJ and is happy to take down pot now or go for the 5050 Title: Re: What would you do? Post by: kinboshi on July 15, 2007, 04:51:08 PM With his range, and your stack size compared to the blinds, it's definitely a call for me.
Title: Re: What would you do? Post by: Indestructable on July 15, 2007, 05:25:54 PM Instant call .
Title: Re: What would you do? Post by: Flea on July 15, 2007, 05:42:42 PM Phew thanks all - I'm glad I'm not the only one to call in this case.
Wanted to ask cause I've had a few instances like this recently and I call everytime under these sort of circumstances, uncanny though Kingpoker you're right he did have Aces and I went out just shy of the money (yet again) but I just think it's unlucky to run into that sort of hand at this stage and if I keep calling then in most cases It's AK against a lower pair and therefore 50 - 50ish. I wasn't worried about the result of the hand so much as the psychology of playing it as wasn't sure if maybe I play these sort of hand wrong (looks like I'm not too bad though - so thanks everyone). I hasten to add if it had been early on and I'd only been raising a 10th of my stack then obviously I'd fold to a big re-raise as I'm quite tight and don't like going out early on a coin-toss. Title: Re: What would you do? Post by: kinboshi on July 15, 2007, 07:14:21 PM Yes, early doors when the blinds are smaller, it's usually wise to lay down AK to an all-in re-raise (in my opinion anyway).
Title: Re: What would you do? Post by: temp0r on July 16, 2007, 01:56:42 AM only laying that down if the guy is some kinda uber rock and i know i cant outplay the table still with 3k. which.. there's not enough play in the blinds to do so yeah..
