Title: 4 handed decisions Post by: amcgrath1uk on August 17, 2009, 03:54:58 AM Hero: On button with approx 180k
Villian: On BB with approx 130k Blinds 4k/8k Hero has been fairly aggressive preflop, shoving over the top of preflop raisers on a few occasions. Villian, apart from doubling up when shoving with 9c 5c has been solid, even at this late stage. Folded to the button, hero raises to 40k with Ac 6c After a couple of moments villian shoves all in.. Call/Fold? Title: Re: 4 handed decisions Post by: LeKnave on August 17, 2009, 03:57:44 AM rewinds time and makes it 20K!

Title: Re: 4 handed decisions Post by: TheRaise on August 17, 2009, 09:51:21 AM Raising 5x the blind 4-handed is just silly unless we have an absolute monster. I'd make it anything from 20k-24k here. However, as played, I'd call for 90k more after putting 40k in.

Title: Re: 4 handed decisions Post by: GreekStein on August 17, 2009, 10:55:04 AM Raising 5x the blind 4-handed is just silly unless we have an absolute monster. Even then it's pretty silly at this stage of the tournament. We should be raising 2.5x and keeping our raise size consistent, trash or not. Title: Re: 4 handed decisions Post by: MC on August 17, 2009, 11:19:47 AM Yeah man, 5x raise is crazy and that's what got you in this mess. You've left yourself much too committed to your hand.

It would be useful for situations like this. Title: Re: 4 handed decisions Post by: Eck on August 17, 2009, 12:28:34 PM Can people stop disguising bad beat stories as hand analysis topics please...

To hope that a less competent player shoves all in over the top of your 5x with JJ or the like (the monster I'm referring to being AA or KK). Relying on your oppo having a hand big enough to shove is ridic here even 9 handed. Even a very aggro player won't shove light without good fold equity. Standard 2.5x or 3x if that's your thing is more likely to induce a shove. Raising 5x wastes a good hand.

4 players limped into Phil Laak's big blind for $800 each. Laak then raised an additional $50,000 with AA. They all folded obv. Well played sir.

Yeah these donks getting it in 4 handed with jacks, the games are still good boys.

I must say after the hand I had to sit silent in stunned amazement for a couple of minutes...
