tskillz187 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I think your PF reraise should be a bit bigger in the $130-140 range. As is I think you have to shove here. Link to post Share on other sites

As is I think you have to shove here.seconded, the chance of you pushing it down to heads up with 110 just doesn't seem good to me. I make it about 125, and push after mark raises here. This situation looks too good, if he has a set, so be it, but I guess he was semi-bluffing with diamonds, maybe QJdd. Link to post Share on other sites
dms26 3 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Judging by some of his posts in the goals thread from general his range is too wide to fold here. You're probably not a huge favorite against his typical range but the pot is already pretty big. I think he's got overcards and a flush draw, 78s or worst case A7d more often than he has a set.

tskillz187 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Maybe I'm wrong, but I think some of the ranges we are giving Nosup are a little to wide. I think he could have a set, 77, or something more like AQ or AKdd. I feel like he has to be giving Cobalt some credit for a legitimate strong hand here with the reraise out of his blind and strong flop bet. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think all the hands I listed are all as likely as one another either. Does your pf calling range change if the raise is $130 and not $110? Link to post Share on other sites
TB17 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Since I'm Mark's student, and only know Cobalt's play through various IMs of Bad Beats, I really dont think it's as easy a shove as most people think. Mark wouldn't do this with top pair or an overpair, so we're stuck with either a superdraw, or a set, or maybe even 77.With the Kd I might have to shovel, a naked KK and I fold.

Royal_Tour 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 wow.. really?? to all those saying no 99-QQ??he raised preflop, and called the re-raise. granted QQ might 3-bet, but 99,10,10 JJ? Mark you say you never show up with these hands here?what do you put cobalt on that he will call your raise on the flop?Obv u put him on a float here, and ur taking this pot, or You're trying to dirty him from the get go, which means u hope he has AA,KK and ur in a dirty spot with 2 dirty cards.I guess its the dirtyness Link to post Share on other sites

Does your pf calling range change if the raise is $130 and not $110?I could show up with 99 if I thought the PF raiser was just SUPER SUPER weaksauce and would fold KK here. But its really seldom I'd make that play.I flat call with an overpair (not aces) btw, I might even fold TT or JJ here, but not sure. I consider that the 'correct' play here.

James D 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Mark, how often are you going to slow-play a funky hand like 79 suited here? (flopped straight).. almost never?I think it's either 79, a set, or 57 (or a few combinations of middle suited connectors making 2 pair), so I think it's a fold. Link to post Share on other sites

Raising with those hands is suicide imo.MarkI'd really enjoy you staying here and commenting on hands more often, can never have enough smart players here, especially ones playing stakes similar to what I'm playing. Obviously selfish reasons for wanting you to post here although admittedly you play much tougher competition than I see live. Link to post Share on other sites

If I'm on a semi bluff, I hope he has AK, AQ, or will fold an overpair. :)This is definitely a scary board imo, given what I know about my 3bet calling range at least :)Mark Link to post Share on other sites

pokerplayer24 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 RR bigger pre. Id say this is most likely a fold postflop unless Mark can show up with a ton of flush draws or pair + straight draws . With the sb acting behind and cobalt showing so much strength Mark will never have a hand that is way behind and cobalt will be way behind here pretty often.Also c/ring this flop might be better.
