Title: Information from other players at the table. Post by: BorntoBubble on October 15, 2012, 06:48:54 PM Playing in the £100 at Genting Sheffield on Saturday. One day comp and we are about 5-6 hours in.
Ive just moved to my 6th table of the night! (I don't like sitting still anyway!) And i am about 15 hands into this table i have already raised twice from late position last orbit. Once got shipped on and i folded and once it folded and i picked up the blinds. During these 15 hands Player A 3 bets from the SB quite large to a min raise from MP i think he made it about 15k~ as to which the original raiser passes. The player next to me (who i have played with before and think is an average player. But by no means do i know this player or think of them as a friend etc...) then says wow that's the first time hes made a raise all day as to which we had a short discussion about this gentlemen liking to flat a lot. Anyway to the hand. I am in LP and Player A is in the BB. I am a 21 year old wearing a hoody they already think im a young internet kid who is going to play like a maniac before i have played a hand let alone after i have raised twice!!! in 15 hands! unbelievable i know! He is 50ish? looks like a recreational kinda guy who seemed to feel comfortable at the table. He has already made a comment about me being young etc. My stack 60k his stack about 55k. blinds 1k/2k ante 200 full ring. I pick up 10/10 and make it 4.4k. he makes it 16k from the BB. What next?

30bb so valuable in this MTT with these players. Title: Re: Information from other players at the table. Post by: jgcblack on October 15, 2012, 07:52:56 PM Fold.
Bad, live, old, rec players 3bt ranges are generally tighter than they should be. Its not 88-99 enough for anything but a fold to be correct imo Title: Re: Information from other players at the table. Post by: muckthenuts on October 15, 2012, 08:35:47 PM Read that a 50 year old 3bet you. Purely based on generalizations TT is really easy fold without reads otherwise.
