Title: Couple of MTT hands
Post by: shipitgood on July 21, 2014, 04:43:08 PM
These are from a £5 BH

Hand 1) Theres a loads of limping being going on, oppo in this hand think they are a reg, but don't have any real reads on them. Think he's squeezing here a lot, and while having a strong hand doesn't have 2 be nutted, my bet sizing is big to get him 2 jam or fold. His raise is just so big, i reckon its a 3 bet or fold.

Last couple of games I've taken a high variance line early doors to get a stack or go home. Bearing in mind it's a BH, if we have a stack it's a lot easier to pick up bounties, exploit limpers with a big stack.

We have pocket 9s in the SB. We have 5k at the start of the hand. Blinds are 30/60.

UTG and the CUT off Limp.

Button raises to 540. He has about 2.6 total at start of hand.

We 3 bet to 1470, to get a fold to his big raise or induce a shove.

*Reads i think he is a reg, not played against him much before, just know his name.

Hand 2, this is about 8 before the bubble we are 3/23 in chips at this point. Villian is a total random. (he is chip leader)

We have 10 10 in the BB, SB has 12k

Blinds are 75/150. We have 9.2k at start of hand.

UTG Limps

BB raises to 600 Total.

I 3 bet the 10's.

Thoughts on calling over 3 betting this large 4x open? And the fact he has us covered?

Call and play in position or 3 bet?

Hand 1 thinking about it now, I don't like it at all.

I was thinking he's maybe squeezing quite wide over the limpers.

Readless I should have proably just folded. It actually looks really nutted now, 10 JJ QQ KK AA, AK AQ AJ/AJs maybe.

Hand 2 as well, I don't like 3 betting here at all this deep over such a large raise.
