119\'s Bubble strategy?? Was this an okay call?
We're down to 3 (top 2 pay). This guy has been fairly aggressive and has moved in several times from the button.
I only have a K-9, but I was thinking that there was a decent chance K-9 was actually the best hand and even if he had Ax, I was getting almost 3-2 on my money so I figured I was getting correct odds to call. The only reason I question the call is because I always read everybody's comments about "bubble" strategy and I think I don't play as tight around the bubble as many of you....(and I know I need to buy that sngo analzyer thing). Anyway, do you think this was an alright call?? thanks (sidenote, there were ante's at this point too, although the converter didn't put it in, so there was 375 in the pot when he moved in) PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (3 handed) converter Button (t1495) SB (t3855) Hero (t3650) Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t1470</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls t1270. Flop: (t2790) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Turn: (t2790) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> River: (t2790) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Final Pot: t2790

I would fold. I'm pretty sure his range has to be massive. [/ QUOTE ] If you think his range would have to be massive, then wouldn't that lean towards calling?? His M was only about 4 ($375 a round), so I thought he could be pushing with almost anything as well....

Re: 119\'s Bubble strategy?? Was this an okay call?
Oh and bigt didn't mean that, he meant his range HAS to be massive for you to call and be +$EV, not that it WAS massive.
By the way he is not even close to desperate here, M just has absolutely no relevance here, then again it almost never does in STT's anyway. Get SNGPT, you'll see.

Tigerite....in regards to your first post, what's wrong with considering M??
In regards to your second post....I don't understand what you're trying to tell me at all....

Actually, sorry, for some reason I didn't see the 2nd paragraph in your 2nd post. I understand better now...although I don't understand why M has no relevance.
I'll get SNGPT....

Stop going on about M. [/ QUOTE ] Tigerite vs. Dan Harrington in a cage match. Who wins? I think tigerite hates him enough for the M to get him motivated enough to fight pretty hard. Dan's also pretty old, but he's wily.

[/ QUOTE ] I cheated a bit and edited it, that's probably why. Listen, using M to make your decisions in an STT format is just going to cost you money in the long run. For a start, it's far easier (and more relevant) to think of people's stacks in terms of BB. The 'M' guidelines in Harrington's book are for "Winner takes all" style tournaments, or in MTT's where it is basically a winner takes all (or certainly, get to the final table at all costs).
