Basic MTT spots- A PHA diary

[George2Loose]

Hi George, just caught up with the thread again. the JJ hand I would fold, main reason would be better spots, and you have a nice stack, so don't need to get involved in a 2 way all in, which is usually always a flip at best. I like the flat pre tho.

The last hand - QQ in 20f I would fold turn. I like peeling early with these hands a lot in first few levels, and playing flops, this early don't think he is double barreling without an ace and way it is played just no point getting value towned when u have just flatted pre. I think small pot poker is a way to go, and have been trying it out, and in turn been getting better results/deeper in tourneys.

Also can under rep your hands so much vs huge whales etc.

You still playing the euro's or is this just for stars?

Hey Dreenie- I mainly play on stars, ongame and party with ipoker and 888 majors. I'm going to add .fr when I return from Vegas.

I did fold the turn- just wanted to check I wasn't being too nitty.

this deep def peel pre vs him and anyone reggish really.

Case can be made for a turn call but he knows your range contains AQ etc which ain't folding. He's decently weighted to value at this point, doubt he's getting too OOL.

I would like to say fold turn in theory but I frequently take outrageous's line.

Can I ask, is there a definition of "regish" I wonder this as I am playing a lot more, and can imagine as my stats rack up, my game will need adjusted as I will not be called as often due to perceptions etc etc etc

call

[TL900]

call and fold all rivers if he barrells i guess? I recognise the name, hes a good reg right? This spot sucks.

[muckthenuts]

Good reg 3betting range here? I haven't played online mtt's in a while though so things might have changed, but this really seems like a fold to me. He can't have AKdd.

[pleno1]

Yeh looks like a fold,. No point trying to get aa to fold and were crushed ca his 3betting range.

[TL900]

He can't have AKdd.

true, didn't notice this.

[silverslick]

I would call. He could have A Q or a diamond draw. As the pre flop aggressor he may see you as week and trying to push you off a hand.

[Rupert]

call turn call non q a river

[George2Loose]

Reallly felt like aces when he 3 bets from sb so early. If not aces then queens got there.

Peeled turn. C/c on Q river. He had aces

[Rupert]

Sometimes when I feel like someone has a hand I just go with that feeling. You're at the table, you know whether it's midway through a Sunday session and they are likely to have it, you might be able to get a sub-conscious feeling just from their timing/sizing.

Standard line though would be to call turn and fold river though?

[pleno1]

what are the pro's for calling the turn?
