Title: Live deep tournament bluff.
Post by: AlexMartin on December 12, 2007, 03:04:27 PM
£400 FO @ Luton G-casino. 75 runners.  15players return for day 2. Average 50k. Hero's stack 40k. Image is very tight having only shown down premium holdings for the last 3 hours of yesterdays play. Villain has 60k. Villain is pretty tight/solid and has just lost a biggish (40k) chunk of his stack. Greek Jack to those that know him.

Blinds 1k/2k/100A.

Playing on a 7-handed table Hero opens UTG+2 with Ad10c to 6k.
Folded to BB who flat calls.

Flop comes  3d 8s Kd. Villain leads out for 8k into 14ish. Villain looks sheepish. Action on hero.

Is villain English? And does he like to donk out often to "see where he's at"? If answer to both is yes I shove here all day long.

Also, I fold preflop here. Prefer to keep my chips for resteals at this blind depth. Opening in early position with this hand and a 20BB stack is fundamentally unprofitable.

QFT, I have played Jack and have seen him stack off with all kinds of marginal stuff when obviously beaten. Not a good opponent to bluff.

Agreed Alex, much like your Pep post, Greek Jack is not a person to bluff here, he'll call with as little as second pair for the rest of his stack here eg A8

He hates being a short stack, having bet he won't pass
