Title: JJ on the button Post by: Dingdell on January 13, 2009, 07:45:12 PM 3 tables out, moved to new table, I have 25,000 average 16,000
I am on button, folded round to me and I find Jh Jc. Blinds 400/800. Un known on SB, MDD R Lynch on BB. What is a reasonable raise here? Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: TightEnd on January 13, 2009, 07:46:35 PM what are the stacks of the blinds, esp MDD?
Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: TheChipPrince on January 13, 2009, 07:48:40 PM 2.2k is my standard here, 2.6k is there's ante's...
Need player and stack info though... Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: Dingdell on January 13, 2009, 07:50:36 PM Sorry - SB approx 8000. MDD just covers me
Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: TightEnd on January 13, 2009, 07:53:29 PM 2,800-3,000, Snap calling a sb push, cursing when MDD re-raises
Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: Newportlad on January 13, 2009, 07:54:00 PM Yep. 2.2K seems pretty good there then.
Be prepared to get the lot in though if re-raised... Sometimes you need to gamble. Win a big pot here, and you should go deep.

Is this beacuse you know the player? Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: Dingdell on January 13, 2009, 08:00:04 PM I raised to 2.5, MDD reraised to 5k.

I want to make the bet a touch bigger than the 2,200 being suggested as I want it to look like a button steal. This should widen the re-stealing range of either blind Yes I know the BB well, and he'll go to war with a lot of paint and most Aces if he think's you are at it Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: Newportlad on January 13, 2009, 08:11:17 PM I raised to 2.5, MDD reraised to 5k. Shove it in! Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: totalise on January 13, 2009, 08:12:55 PM I raised to 2.5, MDD reraised to 5k. go allin and embrace variance with a casual smile Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: TightEnd on January 13, 2009, 08:14:45 PM gotta shove I think
Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: booder on January 13, 2009, 08:16:30 PM gotta shove Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: TheChipPrince on January 13, 2009, 08:22:20 PM You have the 4th best hand, you cannot give him credit for having one of the 3 better hands just because he raised a button raise, this is an absolute stone wall ''get it in'' moment, i'll be astonished if anyone says otherwise...
Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: Dingdell on January 13, 2009, 10:24:02 PM Good. I'm glad you all said that - I was wondering if I could have got away from it - he had Qs Qh and obv I was then out of the tourney. I didn't think I could have played it differently but I wondered if I had been a bit chip happy. Pleased I did the right thing - thanks.
Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: AlexMartin on January 14, 2009, 01:06:51 PM I like 1600.
Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: Dewi_cool on January 14, 2009, 01:13:28 PM Fold your probably behind
Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: GreekStein on January 14, 2009, 01:14:26 PM I like 1600. I hate it when women minraise me, I'd be inclined to throw QQ away! lol Think 2200 is better Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: TightEnd on January 14, 2009, 01:16:38 PM I like 1600. why mate? Prices in a lot of BB hands, or is that the point? Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: snoopy1239 on January 14, 2009, 03:08:06 PM I raised to 2.5, MDD reraised to 5k. Fold. I reckon he has kings or queens, most likely queens though. Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: kinboshi on January 14, 2009, 03:58:37 PM Fold your probably behind Valid point, and great thread Dewi :)up Title: Re: JJ on the button Post by: MANTIS01 on January 14, 2009, 04:52:51 PM That dude peppercorn/steak? folded J-J at the D.T.D. final table last month. I said at the time it was visionary.
