I voted for standard raise but I think the all in works better. Unless it has a J on it, you wont like most flops for JJ.

My move here depends on my table image,

1. lets say that your seen by the table as a solid tight aggressive player, you make the standard raise and mr loose goose pushes then its an easy call for all of your chips.

2.  However if your seen as the loose goose push and hope for a call from someone with ace rag. if no ace on the flop then move in. if an ace does flop pass in a flash.

Personally i like the standard raise here, i dont mind getting called as im looking to get myself into a better chip position ready to win the tourny.

If you push pre flop and dont get called all youve gained are the blinds which arent at a critical level yet. Just my opinion but i guess most pro's dont push in this situation.

ok, this is what actually happened - i promise this isnt a bad beat story.... well, err..... anyway.


the maniac gambler who had 19 rebuys @ $27 each!!!!! (not an exaggeration i promise) - called with  for pretty much his entire stack. The first card down was  to make my set but went on to help his flush! - i incidently thought this was a terrible call by him.  I made the all in so that AK, AQ and even QQ would pass as i didnt want a coin flip with them and i think making this move makes even the QQ fold for their entire stack - i thought realistically i would only be called defintely by 2 hands (AA and KK) and maybe by AK or QQ.

I think it was the right move but was interested to know what everyone thought.
thanks for the contributions

p.s.

i didnt really think it was a realistic option but ones own opinions are valid opinions

How many clubs on the flop?
If only 1 then my play was the winner

it was an bluesquirrel yes atit but he wasnt the big blind he was on the button which makes the call even more terrible - he had nothing invested and two more players behind him. - grrrrrrr!

the afternoon comps are good on there, have'nt played them for a while! i might play a couple this afternoon!

That call has just reminded me of why i like them... the thing is greg so many players on bluesq will move in with any 2 so aq seems an auto call for alot of players no matter there position

who are you? and how dare cast aspersions on my character?! - i fold 10-8 everytime  Cheesy

p.s. i really don't know what your talking about - enlighten me.

it was early on in the 300 comp at the walsall masters.  i think you hit a straight playing 810os.  The guy had 2pair A and 9 i think.  I wasnt criticising, you played it well - no one on the table put you on it :-)

The guy to the right of you had busted out with KK twice in 3 hands at the time.


HAND OFFICIALLY REMEMBERED ON THE WAY TO THE CASINO LAST NIGHT - IT DOUBLED ME UP AND MADE ME THE CHIP DADDY ON THE TABLE - SB VS BB - HOW COULD I FORGET?!!
