Title: Live MTT hands Post by: TightEnd on September 28, 2009, 04:13:36 PM These from last weekend's £220
15k starting, 40 minute clock Day 1 hands, I would appreciate critique on any/all of them. Thank you 1. Ahrt Kh in MP Level 2 50-100. One limper. I make it 400. Called by the button, limper folds Hero 14,000 Villain 13,000 History with Villain, He thinks I am a rock, reasonably enough. I think he is a loose cannon, makes odd plays and overplays marginals a lot flop 9s 6s 3d I lead for 800, called immediately turn 9d check, quick check river 7h I check, he bets 1100. Putting him on spades and betting a missed draw, I call 2. 200-400 Hero 23,000 SB with 5c 5d Unopened, make it 1200 Stuart Hopkin in the big blind pushes for 7,475 more I call 3. At 400-800 I am playing 30,000 Make it 2,200 unopened on the button with 8-8 We are playing six handed, as play nears the end of the day Nirvana shoves for 19,000 instantly I fold. 4. Now playing five handed at 400-800. Folded to me in small blind with 26,500 look at 3-3 Make it 2,200 into a young but so far tight, ABC player's, BB He calls flop J-9-4 rainbow I lead for 3,300 He calls turn 8 I check fold to a turn bet.

Number 2 is my favourite as we clearly are going to put a 5 in Stu's eye.

We did, but that's by the by...its' the pre-flop that interests me Title: Re: Live MTT hands Post by: Longy on September 28, 2009, 04:38:34 PM Looks pretty good to me Tighty though I haven't got any background reads on Nirvana or Stu.

2. Call is fine. 3. Call here too. 4. As played fine, although I may just make it up from SB here. Title: Re: Live MTT hands Post by: BulldozerD on September 28, 2009, 04:49:04 PM 1. probably check flop back. As played some draws missed but he could also have 78s which just got there witha pair or could be pot controlling an middle pair, its close but probably a fold but don't hate a call
2. i'd call, you have a pair BvB 3. I'd call this most times for sure, without a ninja read that he was super tight 4. seems ok, not sure whether i would c-bet though Title: Re: Live MTT hands Post by: EvilPie on September 28, 2009, 05:51:27 PM Looks pretty good to me Tighty though I haven't got any background reads on Nirvana or Stu.

Fine. Maybe c-bet a little less, 600 or so. Depends on your c-bet sizing so far tho. 2. Limp from SB. Shove over a raise. Your 55 is prob good, but we're usually not thrilled to get it in here. 3. Don't really know the player? Folding is prob just about ok... are there antes? 4. Again, limp from SB. Stops us being OOP with an underpair. |
