Title: is it possible to fold here? Post by: Unimaginative on April 13, 2009, 11:34:47 AM played the £75 freezeout yesterday at DTD, 75 players roughly 2k to the winner and 9 places paid.
had built my stack to 10k by the 2hour mark,very happy as im usually the "donk" out early lol. after getting crippled by a donk shoving wit a flush draw for his stack on the turn and binking the river im down to 3800 at 150-300. so here goes, UTG (flush draw egit) limps, not worried hes been doing it alot. Labelled nit open shoves for 7k and i look at Jc Jd....... so i go all in. BB passes AQ face up that makes me feel much better. Nit shows Qh Qd. Can i find a fold here or am i just playing against a scared poker player?? Title: Re: is it possible to fold here? Post by: Longy on April 13, 2009, 11:48:27 AM No JJ is basically the nuts here.

Post by: gatso on April 13, 2009, 05:37:32 PM yes, it's possible to fold here given the right circumstances
for example you could be in the toilet or at the bar when the hand is played Title: Re: is it possible to fold here? Post by: marcin123 on April 16, 2009, 11:02:49 AM Most players probably instant call in this spot... personally i probably fold... I am probably racing at best and I would rather put my money in first in a better spot...

I am probably racing at best and I would rather put my money in first in a better spot... You are likely to wait a long time for a better spot than this.... You are most likely a big favourite here, sometimes racing and very occassionally a big dog. Title: Re: is it possible to fold here?

I am probably racing at best and I would rather put my money in first in a better spot... So you have shortstacks range on aq+,qq+ here? Even uber nits have a range of something like aj+, 77+ here with 3/4 bbs left. I have yet to meet anyone who would fold 10's here, even Tikay would have left scorch marks on the table here. You won't find many better spots than this, tbh I think that whole phrase is horrible (not having a go at you personally, i see this every other thread on the 3 forums i read daily), just concentrate on what the best play is in the hand in question, instead of talking about mystical future better spots. Title: Re: is it possible to fold here? Post by: Unimaginative on April 16, 2009, 11:18:12 AM surely with a stack at 3800 and blinds at 150-300, im actually going to looking for a spot to race because of the slim chance
that i willl be in a situation where i have my opponent dominated with so little time left before i get to monkey shove mode?? thanks for the opinions guys |
