call or fold

[tantrum]

MTT mid tourney low buy in

10 handed tble

stacks are all about the same 4k

blinds 75/150

you raise from utg+1 with QQ  300- 450 to go and you get 3 callers

the flop 222

you check - all three go all in so the pot now is about 12k and you have to call all in.


only AA/KK can beat you unless someone got quads (unlikely)
do u call?

[boldie]

yes

[tantrum]

TBH - i my software a bit froze, i got timed out and lost the hand.and i would win it otherwise nice pot.
as they had TT/JJ/AJ!!!!!!
 

Since then I went hiding in the jungle, but was considering a fold or last minute call, my babboon brain went on the freeze mode, as i thought surely one of them has to have better hand then me.  But then considering the buy in level i gave too much credit to those pple.

lesson learned .... if it was against one or 2 players i would call but freakign 3-  freaked me out....

[partyholdem]

I think that I will call in that situation, QQ is quite a good starting hand, and in addition with those 222! Good full house, not to mention that is unlikely any of the others to have a 2 in his hand, or AA, or KK...

Unless you are playing against 3 faeces throwing monkeys then you should fold. How can it be possible you are ahead here?

more often then not you'll be ahead.

player one raises as he has a half decent hand., player 2 and 3 think (feck it I'll hit and if not I've got a good high card)...
you will be ahead more often then you think.

yes I was against those monkeys, not paying attention to the table might cost a player big pot....

could you please stop giving away all my secrets to winning!!

Faeces flinging is a very fine art - one which i will demonstrate at the next blonde bash!

Didn't you know that AJ is the nutz.

did you see brunson fold a similar hand to a bet from chip reese in the 50K horse at the world series when reese had pocket kings. i would consider that one of your opponents had you looks like a fold to me

God yeah, that hand and this one are almost identical.

i know the situation was completely different, but the objective is to win, you have only committed 10% of your stack and you have checked on the flop where as brunson led out on the flop. as your opponent i would put you on 2 big cards and move with any pair on that flop, do you think leading out would have been a better play??

there are only 3 hands that are beating you here and I am pretty sure all three of those would have left the raising upto you.

any pocket pair might stick a small bet in here and, as that happened, it's a fairly safe bet that your queens are still ahead.

That's not ho the action went. 3 players went all in, in turn. 2 players didn't get the chance to slowplay. The 3rd player to go all in has to be the greatest retard in poker history not to have a Aces or a 2.
