Title: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: TightEnd on August 19, 2005, 12:41:56 AM down to 10 players, money for top 9..£2k to win, £200 for ninth
blinds 300,600 I have 20,000 chips. Chip leader 42,000. I'm probably 5th or so. five handed table UTG limps...he limps a lot, and is a calling station post flop...has 23,000 chips Seat 2 raises to 3000. She is aggressive, has begun to bully table and has 42,000 chips. Doesn't need premium hand to raise Seat 3 folds I'm in SB with QQ What do you tend to do here? I'm not interested in ninth, just a top three placing My choices are smooth call, re-raise to say 8-9k or push all-in. Over to you, results later........

Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: snoopy1239 on August 19, 2005, 12:44:29 AM lol - i see a pattern forming.
Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: TightEnd on August 19, 2005, 12:58:50 AM I went all in after a dwell to consider the possibilities
The limper insta calls. The raiser folds Limper turns over AK You know the rest Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: TightEnd on August 19, 2005, 01:00:35 AM which got me thinking..smooth call, see a flop and push if no A/k...or was I destined to do my chips in that hand regardless?
Or I smooth call, limper re-raises and I'm racing QQ anyway tough game!! :) Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: Robert HM on August 19, 2005, 01:04:51 AM All in, even with hindsight.

I have nowhere near the experience most of you guys have but this is what I would've done. That's probably as good a reason as any for you going AI pre-flop! :)Or I smooth call, limper re-raises and I'm racing QQ anyway tough game!! :) Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it?

Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: bhoywonder on May 25, 2007, 06:17:30 PM without looking at the rest of the answers
u say you want the win,in that case im all in if u wanted to creep into money then a raise to 10k total and re-evaluate post flop would be good but yup all in damn just looked at the date lol....

Post by: GlasgowBandit on May 27, 2007, 09:01:22 PM I sometimes find these situations tricky. I'd say I am pushing about 70% of time calling 20% and cranking it upto around 9 - 12k mark the other 10% then pushing on a safe flop. Invariably I always seem to pick the wrong time to push.
What annoys me is when players refuse to believe that their AK is behind or indeed that they may not even be racing against an under pair! Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: AlexMartin on May 28, 2007, 03:24:30 AM Im flat calling, who was the woman? not danish......
Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: TightEnd on May 28, 2007, 11:23:41 AM Im flat calling, who was the woman? not danish...... This was Luton pre-Danish, when you had a reasonable expectation of putting someone on a hand. Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it?

LOL, I seem to have no problem putting people on hands even now. But getting my 85% fav to stand up, well thats another matter lol Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it?

LMHO and then I started playing there, but if you are looking for a top 3 then you have got to go all in Title: Re: Hand advice...how would you play it? Post by: TightEnd on May 31, 2007, 11:19:04 PM do we know each other then Squid?
