Title: Line check Mini FTOPS 10r 6-max Post by: dino1980 on January 10, 2013, 02:22:53 AM The Setup: 10r Mini FTOPS, 70 off the money, average stack is 30k (50 bigs)
Info: Villain has been at the table <4 orbits, he has a gold FTOPS jersey avatar (I mean who hasn't, you know what I mean), only hand I recall involving him is when I min-raised (at this blind level) utg+1 with JJ, he flatted SB, the BB piled for 15BB I flatted and he passed. FWIW in the hand below after his bet and before i hit timebank on the river he typed 'i'm not bluffing' into the chatbox. Full Tilt Poker MiniFTOPS Event #9 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t300/t600 Blinds + t75 - 5 players - View hand 2057729 SB: t33281 M = 26.10 Hero (BB): t51537 M = 40.42 UTG: t21984 M = 17.24 CO: t52485 M = 41.16 BTN: t32281 M = 25.32 Pre Flop: (t1275) Hero is BB with Ac Td 2 folds, BTN raises to t1200, 1 fold, Hero calls t600 Flop: (t3075) Aspades 2h 4h (2 players) Hero checks, BTN bets t1200, Hero calls t1200 Turn: (t5475) 3s (2 players) Hero checks, BTN bets t2552, Hero calls t2552 River: (t10579) 8s (2 players) Hero checks, BTN bets t9522, Hero requests TIME, Hero folds The Post-mortem: I know revealing results before some discussion is frowned upon, but thought overall, rather than street by street analysis, was better here. I don't play many tournaments and apologise if this hand is relatively trivial to those of you that do (but hey this is PHA after all). But some questions: 1) As played is river fold standard? 2) If not, where did I go wrong? 3) Raise pre? 4) He bets 40-45% of pot on flop/turn then bets 90% on the river. From what I know of population tendencies (current buzzphrase on PHA no?) this usually indicates draw/weak, draw/weak, hit or ditto, ditto, miss. Edit: In game it felt very much like his river sizing was an obv value bet. |
