It's on the bubble of a MTT, we are the chip leader, or 2nd chip leader and have the player in this hand covered.
We have ** in the SB
Blinds 400/800. We defend SB versus c/o min raise the BB folds.
Pots is 4k. Villian has 35k behind.
Flop:
Check, Villian bets 800 we call. Pot 5.6k
Turn:
We lead for 2899. Villian makes it 6598. We set the player all in.
From a poker theory perspective leading Turns (or flops) is a lot more common these days than say 2/3 years ago.
It's really interesting when the pre flop aggressor then raises the lead, in this case OTT. In my experience people do not attack these leads often enough.
In the particular hand it is a bizarrely small raise.
This player is a reg. What kind of range would you assign villain here?
The other interesting thing in this hand is calling the SB, which is really unusual instead of 3 betting. I'm not entirely sure, but expect that it's maybe not bad having a very small % SB calling range. Maybe in this kind of scenario, where you can go to the streets and potentially put pressure on during the bubble.
