Default Re: WSOP #17 Hands Analysis

[ QUOTE ]
hand #1, as played I C/F with 4 hearts out there. I would have C/R the turn though.

hand #2, I say raise now. Get some money in there, and let them fight it out. I say make a smallish raise of about another 500, i.e. raise to 800. You never know, the guy with the A of spades may get their money in now. If you wait until the river and they miss, they definitely won't. also, if a 4th spade hits. then you'll get the money from the A of spades, but the SB may lay down if he has a baby flush. Entice the action now.

Yeah, RR to like 800 or so on the second hand; the tight player will think that you may have a 7 and be trying to get $$ out of a J, you'll get another bad player to come for the ride; stacking someone here is more likely than getting multi action and there is only a 20% chance another spade is coming. Plus, if you get cute now, you may let tighty think that you have a FH, and if he folds you're gonna hate yourself.

The first hand is very read dependent and I really don't have a comment for it. I don't know what is going on between the two of you when the third or fourth heart comes. I would check and then tank for a long time and think about your past play, then either make a hero call or fold. I like that you called the turn; I think CR makes all worse hands fold (save for a lower set, obv.) and gets a call from all flushes.
