pokerfan1080 0 Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I've seen this re-raise amount alot lately, 3 times the big blind rather than a more aggressive 3 times the raise amount. Not sure what to think of it. Hand strength doesn't matter either. I've seen it with monsters, down to Akos.I flat called the re-raise because I didn't think QQ was a hand to re-re-raise, (good, bad?).Opponent's C-bet on the flop was fishy, slightly overbet the pot. I re-raised a little over min raise hopping he had a smaller pocket pair or overs and thought he might call this rather than a bigger raise. Although, I think getting it all in here is a decent option as well. He just called my re-raise so he's either slow playing a monster, or I have him beat.His check on the turn seems to indicate weakness. What's my play? Push the rest in? Smaller value bet? I don't see a check here, unless we think we might get another bet on the river, but with this much in the pot I don't think we want to let villain get a free card.PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)Hero ($9.60)MP ($7.75)CO ($22.30)Button ($10.75)SB ($9.60)BB ($8.10)Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q, Q.

Pot Odds RAC 23 Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 What beats us...?A Set... nah, this doesn't feel like a set.No flushes...9/10... I just don't see it.Aces or Kings... again, doesn't feel like the over pair is out there.Feels most like A/K - nothing on the board that really scares a Villan with Big Slick.Could be a weak Ace that paired the kicker.I push.

psujohn 0 Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I think your flop raise commits you to pushing any non-A turn. Link to post Share on other sites
