I was short stack kind of, the read on Purp is that he is a fairly solid player, and i was pretty sure I was beat, yet couldnt fold because of a couple reasons. Do you fold here?

[BeaverStyle]

Don't post results!!!!



Basically, against his range, you aren't faring too well.

I'd fold and wait for another spot, 20k 5 handed isn't opitmal, but you aren't out yet.

You're either racing against him, or dominated, and it's very likely he has JJ+, AQ+, and you're only beating 2/6 hands there.

Besides, you're up against AA, obviously fold!!! (sw)

[Flack_attack]

Your M is ~9, so I don't like calling (you maaaaybe could make an argument for a stop and go if you really think he's got something like AKs). Folding seems weak, though, and pushing seems too crazy. This is a tough spot.

If you had been playing aggro and raising a lot of pots (which you should be 5 handed) and you think he is trying to "resteal" I would push.

If not then idk....I would still probably push.

Ask Copernicus.

[Alex916F]

Convert hands...



He actually has about an M of 5 compensated for the short handed play. you shoulda shoved pre-flop, guy picks up AA thats poker...... sux with your M you shouldn't be folding TT imho


Peace

[copernicus]

I think I would have probably played it the same, especially if the table has been tight and your first raise could take it down. The other alternatives (push up front, stop and go) are going to get you to the same point anyway..out!

[Flack_attack]

Oh right Alex, I forgot. His "effective M" is closer to 5. I'm thinkin push for sure now.

[Flushgarden]

I'd still wait for a better spot.

[ramenandeggs]

i fold tens and even jacks here. just cuz i hate them.
