In the hand that isn't a bad beat I don't think you can 4-bet fold so either go back and flat the 3-bet or call now...

[outragous76]

I don't like the idea of 4 bet folding pre! So yeah probs getting it in now we got to this point, but pretty sure you only beat aq ak here,

I prefer the flat and re assess pre (and u can happily set mine off these stacks).

[pleno1]

what isn't a bad beat?

oh and obv not 4b folding, just meaning is 4bet getting it in fine, not just for value but to reaffirm that we have full power of our button.

[GreekStein]

i hate minraising with an ante

[pleno1]

also 4bet sizing fine?

[pleno1]

i hate minraising with an ante

hmmm, because he's not going to fold much? do you not think it's ok because we're usually going to be HU?

Also this is a 4max tournie so going to be lots of HU pots so isnt too bad. When I play HU I dont start minraising until like 30-40bigs dependent on opponent (if I can 3x my good hands and min raise bad i.e they are tez) so dont min raise in tourneys as a standard.

[Rupert]

minraising is fine if you think you're getting 3 bet a lot opening bigger.  wtf is this 4 bet about though

well he has to call 400 with over 5k behind, so its not ideal, but yes he can - whats ur point?

Your not getting close to the implied odds to setmine profitably. Also given the the limited information we have that he sets baby pairs aswell, we can probably safely assume he 3bets a wide enough range that everytime we hit a set we aren't guranteed to win his stack everytime.

Also OP i think you should point out this seems to be a 4max MTT which changes things somewhat. Also his 3bet size is altered in the hands (3bets to 500 wth 22, 600 this time) making me think he has it this time, esp given the previous hand. I'd 4bet call it off but i also wouldn't play an online MTT

providing you arent doing it 100%  of teh time there is nothing wrong taking shots getting 10:1 implied oddds imo

Granted i don't play MTT's but if you show me the Math that setmining 60bb's profitably (even from a 6bb 3bet) i'll happily backtrack on my statement. Although it perhaps opens a can of worms as to whether you can profitably setmine fairly shallow in 4max mtt's where people are "at it" more. I think IP calling the 3bet and playing in a majestic manner postflop may nearly have the same EV as 4bet calling, against this guy in this tournament any route you choose will be high variance, but never folding pre. LOL donkaments.
