Title: Did I play this bad?...
Post by: MC on March 18, 2009, 09:13:09 PM
Any arguments for open-folding the flop here? Maybe even preflop? Can't help thinking I donked off over 3k when I was unlikely to be good...

folding pre is kinds daft as no action tells you you have the worst of it, on the flop I think you got off cheap. rocker saved you chips. the reraise on the flop could have been different and achieved the same result.  Although i cant find a comfy number, 1200 - 1600 range, sets the reraise standard and you saved 4 - 5 blinds.

Yeah good point about the re-raise.

Your reasoning is the reason I did call, however I couldn't help thinking playing this pot oop against several players when there was a min-raise to a limper would be tricky unless I flopped a monster. This kinda flop was the reason folding crossed my mind...

i would 3 bet pre and get it in if he shoved (unless the ep limper shoves)

I wouldnt ever respect the min raiser for a big hand here, after he min raises over a limper. 3 bet pre, and be happy to get it in vs the pre flop raisor i think. 3 bet/fold vs any aggression action from players other than the pre flop raisor

This.  Bearing in mind if Le Knave did he'd probably bink a QQQ flop.

Really? I was sure this was strong at the time. Hadn't seen him make a raise previously to this. I know people in STT's do this with stuff like KT, but in a deepstack tourney with antes involved and against an early postion limp, from early position, i thought this was a donk with a premium...

I was much closer to folding pre than 3 betting considering we're in the small blind. On the button I could understand. The original raiser is deep, and a raise to 2k when it looks like we could get 2 callers with AQ off seems undesirable?

ahhhh iv misread the hand HH, i thought ud limped behind, yeah i prob prefer a flat pre in that case.
