Title: Was pushing the wrong idea? Post by: Newmanseye on May 26, 2008, 08:48:27 PM I am sitting with about $16 in front and the average around the table is $25 or there abouts. Its been a fairly solid table with Pete IQ making a few moved from position with filth.
I think i overplayed this with a push, whats your take & what would you have done differently. I am in the big blind, Pete IQ is in the small blind. There was a raise to $0.80 called by 2 people before it got to me, I re pop it to $2.60, all 3 call. Pete IQ makes it $5.80 on the flop, I pushed, all others fold & peteIQ calls.

Title: Re: Was pushing the wrong idea? Post by: Claw75 on May 26, 2008, 10:19:36 PM I'm a bit confused here - what are you thinking you should have done other than pushing? Making a smaller raise or flat calling to milk more out of Pete?
I probably would have flat called the flop bet, and made a small raise to a bet on the turn. I'm not getting away from it though. Title: Re: Was pushing the wrong idea?

Title: Re: Was pushing the wrong idea? Post by: Longy on May 27, 2008, 02:24:47 AM More preflop imo, make it about $3.5-4, you are giving them far too big odds to hit and more importantly not getting value from your hand.
Postflop is fine you have a monster and shoving is easily the best play. Just a cooler. |
