Re: Preflop: On the Button Against A Raise (Pokerstars $11 Deep Stack)
Hi,
thanks for the answers.
I really considered two possibilities:
<ul type="square">[*] Substantial reraise to 2000
It has all the advantages which Akeshish outlined. But it has in my view a serious flaw: After such a reraise i have only 1700t left. The pot is 150+500+2000= 2650t. So i would be already pot committed. So i would have to push on the flop, whether i hit the flop or not. [*] Push
(see beneath[/list]The hand unfolded as follows:
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t3807 (all-in)</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+1 calls t3307.
Flop: (t7764) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Turn: (t7764) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
River: (t7764) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Final Pot: t7764
Results:
UTG+1 has Ac Ad (two pair, aces and queens).
Hero has As Kd (two pair, queens and sevens).
Outcome: UTG+1 wins t7764.
Two things about the hand bother me:
<ul type="square">[*] Is it worthwile to risk all chips in this situation (competitive chip stack!) in the second hour of a Deep Stack tourney?[*] Should i have taken more attention to the low preflop raise rate of my opponent? In the aftermath it's pretty clear he has the bullets or the cowboys...[/list]What do you think about it?
