ManicTortoise 0 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I have been reading the posts on here for a while and thought I would share one with you all. Basically I'm not sure pushing here was the right move. I like it for many reasons but was wondering what everyone else thinks.I have yet to find a hand converter tool for UB so I had to type this out, if anyone can suggest a hand converter would be most appreciated.$1/$2NL ring game on Ultimate BetSB ($69)BB ($313)UTG ($345)UTG + 1 ($100)MP ($544)MP2 (121.15)MP3 ($252.70)CO+1 (149)ME ($148)Button ($193)I get dealt Qh QcMP2 raises to $7, MP3 & CO+1 Call, I reraise to $20MP2 calls, MP3 folds, CO+1 callsAt this stage I am felling good having only sat down about four hands ago with $100 and already traveling well. However, it means I have no reads on any of the players. I think I may have annoyed CO+1 though as I called him down in a $60 pot with two pair (J's and 6's) and beat his two pair of tens and sixes (6's were on board as turn and river cards).FLOP: Jd 7d QsChecked to me, I bet $40only CO+1 calledwith 2 diamonds i don't like it if a third d comes on the turn, as the pot is now $150 i figure any blank I pushTURN: 8CCO+1 checked, I pushed all in for $87 (which really was only about 1/2 the pot)This is the play I'm not sure of, should I have only gone another $40 or so and left a little in the tank, invite the call so to speak? Thoughts on every bet would be appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites
IQCrash 1 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I hope this isn't a "...and he had 9T" post, because really, is there any other way to play this?You tried to isolate pf, altho with $24 already in the pot I would have raised a bit more, to say, $30-$35.You flopped top set and when checked to you bet on a pretty draw heavy board, and again, you could have bet a bit more, say $50-60.And it's an easy shove when checked to on the river.So other than increases your rr and bet sizes, the hand was pretty much destined to play out the way it did - at least from your end.If villain showed up with 9T, good for him, and hope he sticks around and keeps calling you OOP with connectors.

ManicTortoise 0 Posted August 25, 2008 Author Share Posted August 25, 2008 Thanks guys. Guy folded on turn so happy days. Appreciate input about bet size though, i think this is where i get myself into trouble. Bet too small and give the odds for the call. Link to post Share on other sites
