throwemaway 0 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 First limper I tried bluffing and it failed miserably..I had complete air and he had TPTK and called me down..Besides that bluff, I had played tight, solid poker.Does anyone push this preflop? If not, how do you play the flop? Open push? C/R all in? C/F? Really not sure what the best play is herePokerStars Game #6444861300: Tournament #32706332, $20+$2 Hold'em No Limit - Level VII (100/200) - 2006/09/27 - 22:49:52 (ET)Table '32706332 16' 9-max Seat #1 is the buttonSeat 1: trobling (5685 in chips) Seat 2: Canhambone (5695 in chips) Seat 3: throwemaway (2539 in chips) Seat 4: The Shärk (12580 in chips) Seat 5: ImTilting (8438 in chips) Seat 7: b3007 (4094 in chips) Seat 8: tnetter (11255 in chips) Seat 9: RvrMonkey (5320 in chips) Canhambone: posts small blind 100throwemaway: posts big blind 200*** HOLE CARDS ***Dealt to throwemaway [8h 9h]2 foldsb3007: calls 2002 foldstrobling: calls 200Canhambone: calls 100throwemaway: checks *** FLOP *** [Ad Tc 7d]Canhambone: checks throwemaway: ??

Actuary 3 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 with 8 outs or less and 3 others with bigger stacks, I defintly dont' push that Ace boardYou're also just a 100sb away from seeing 8 hands for free.I c/c and see if I can hit the turn.I"d call a bigger bet closing action than not.And of course more so if more people called Link to post Share on other sites
gobears 0 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 With an M>8, I push that preflop against three limpers - unless someone was limping/trapping, it'd be tough for any of them to call of that much of their stack off especially with your tight solid image.Since you checked your option, it's a good flop- I would lead 500 into the pot. You have eight outs and on the off chance someone has KQ, it cleans up your jack outs. Other players should put you on a 10 or a weak ace so it could go thru. With a short stack, I would press this hand and be all-in by the turn. Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 gobears,Are we that deperate to play at a 2:1 disadvantage for all our chips in a pot that is still less than 40% of our stack ? I think the Ace makes it very strong we all called and need to make a hand. Link to post Share on other sites

I think the Ace makes it very strong we all called and need to make a hand.I'm not against check/folding the flop if we just checked in the BBBut I think that there's an opportunity here to take the pot on the flop since it's possible that no one has an ace since no one showed strength preflop. If someone pushes over our lead bet, then folding with 1,839 in chips would be acceptable. But if we get one caller, I'd probably jam the turn for fold equity at the sign that our opponent is weak.I like the aggressive line here Link to post Share on other sites

simo_8ball 1 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Yeah, just check and see what happens. If it was A67 I would be more tempted to bet. Link to post Share on other sites
