Best way to proceed here? The opener was opening an awful lot, too much, so he is super wide here. The cold-caller had decent stats over 220 hands, nothing crazy, not overly passive. I can't remember if I sharkscoped him during or after the hand (from a quick sharkscope I assume he is a break-even to slightly losing player) PokerStars Hand #86348216695: Tournament #614707040, $100+$9 USD Hold'em No Limit - Level XVI (350/700) - 2012/09/18 8:53:43 WET [2012/09/18 3:53:43 ET] Table '614707040 3' 9-max Seat #3 is the button Seat 1: papakis23 (5732 in chips) Seat 2: TaicheT (12842 in chips) Seat 3: epitomised (22083 in chips) Seat 5: GeoffRas22 (11800 in chips) Seat 6: csucsustar (39244 in chips) Seat 7: Luxik88 (27411 in chips) Seat 8: Gamblor Jr 6 (20035 in chips) papakis23: posts the ante 85 TaicheT: posts the ante 85 epitomised: posts the ante 85 GeoffRas22: posts the ante 85 csucsustar: posts the ante 85 Luxik88: posts the ante 85 Gamblor Jr 6: posts the ante 85 GeoffRas22: posts small blind 350 csucsustar: posts big blind 700 *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to epitomised [Jc Js] Luxik88: folds Gamblor Jr 6: folds papakis23: folds TaicheT: raises 700 to 1400 epitomised: raises 875 to 2275 GeoffRas22: folds csucsustar: calls 1575 papakis23 said, "omg" TaicheT: calls 875 *** FLOP *** [5s 7h Ac] csucsustar: checks TaicheT: checks epitomised: Title: Re: Facing a cold-call Post by: muckthenuts on September 18, 2012, 01:41:31 PM 1 and done most of the time.
