Title: being paid with 4 of a kind Post by: jpean on April 12, 2008, 07:36:46 AM Hello everybody ;hattip;
Beginning of a live tournament full ring. freeroll, but the 30 players played seriously. the only thing that I knew about my opponent is that he won one of those freeroll some weeks ago We all began with 5k chips the blinds were 25/50 a few hands before this one, I had re raised him (UTG+1) from the SB and so I covered him but not a lot. Now the hand : He raised from UTG to 150. All people fold to me From the button I see Kc Aspades and re raised to 500 SB and BB fold He called. Flop : Ac Ks 4h check check. Turn : Kd He checked I bet 400 He called. River Kh. He checked. I thank about 2 ways to play now : 1) bet something like 500 and hoping he has a fullhouse 2) Push all in and hoping he has one of the 2 last aces. In your opinion which of those move has the best EV here? Title: Re: being paid with 4 of a kind Post by: boldie on April 12, 2008, 10:43:07 AM push.. if he has an ace he'll call...and cry.

it's what I've done and he fold, showing Js Jh... I asked the question because after that hand, a lot of players on the table said me that I should have choose the other option, saying that some luck is rare, and I should make money with it...

I go for the small value bet here. If he bets into you on the flop or turn, I go for the shove.

JJ might call 500..but any bare Ace will probably call their entire stack off...and that's what you want. |
