Title: MTT...critique my line in blind on blind? Post by: GreekStein on April 06, 2009, 12:47:40 AM Don't have HH but I'll copy paste from my blog as I remember the hand....
It's the $35k on ipoker. 1385 runners. Around 100 left. Blinds are 1600/3200 with an ante of 200 (I think). My stack is 85k. It passes round to the small blind with 42k, who makes up. I check my J8. Flop comes 10,9,4. SB checks and I bet 4.5k. He bumps it to 14.5k and I move in. He calls with K10 and I hit an 8 on the turn but brick the river. Should I raise pre? Check behind the flop? Pass when he c-raises? Be interesting to know what people think of this as I've had all sorts of opinions from people on msn. Title: Re: MTT...critique my line in blind on blind? Post by: Simon Galloway on April 06, 2009, 01:02:51 AM Any history with the sb blind on blind might be relevant. But with no info to go on, I like the check behind on the flop. I don't like going broke in a blind on blind pissing competition with 2 mediocre hands in an unraised pot. But plenty do. You have an opportunity to get there with a nicely disguised hand, admitedly it might be for a smaller pot though than playing it fast. But paradoxically, as played, once you get raised to 14.5k I don't mind your push.

Title: Re: MTT...critique my line in blind on blind? Post by: noble1 on April 06, 2009, 03:42:31 PM i'd take a solid pot control approach here due to stack sizes plus no info on villain so check behind would be my line,call a small bet on the turn as played , if he checks turn then i'd still check turn and call a reasonable river bet if he leads...i,m just looking to get to see the turn + river as cheap as possible hoping to hit our straight or river trip 8's etc...

Title: Re: MTT...critique my line in blind on blind? Post by: MANTIS01 on April 06, 2009, 04:27:28 PM Difficult to give a quality answer when the most important question of images is unknown. The fact sb villain c-raises tp suggests hero has been relatively aggressive (sb figures hero bets if he checks it...and hero doesn't disappoint). If hero does have an aggressive image then I wouldn't recommend betting the draw, especially if sb villain isn't a weak c-fold type player. I would prefer to check the flop myself (unless playing off a tight image), but as played I wouldn't be betting to fold so am happy to get it in.
