The minraise is especially bad because PaintedBird is so short, I'd flat call the first 1k, and then I fold this for sure to Hachem

Hachem NEVER has AK here ,as its either KK or AA

[/ QUOTE ]

hachem might be bad, but he's bad enough to fold ak here? srsly, i'll be damned if he doesn't have AKs sometimes and AKo as well

[/ QUOTE ]

Are you leveling or what? I think AK is a fold for Hachem here. Full ring sucks because it's correct to be nitty in spots like this.

ye if you just flatcall you can get away easily, now getting 2-1 its closer but still a fold imo. also keep in mind that hachem is not a very strong player, so i wouldnt be surprised if he shows up with AK here at least sometimes

My thoughts during the hand were that raising would almost make it easier to fold to a shove (and thus the minraise), given the amount of strength a 5-bet would indicate. If I just call, he can put me on a wider range of hands (or can he?) and perhaps shove lighter, putting me to a tougher decision.

Would you smoothcall or reraise with AA? KK? AK? And what do you think Hachem's assumption of these ranges might be? What does he put me on when I minreraise?

no, the fact that we're thinking about folding queens and our minraise is the weakest move we've got leads me to think hachem should shove AK here

Ya the game broke when Joe left, soon after this hand. I dont know if it was a bunch of hopefuls trying to play with a world champ, or if he was the fish in the lineup. I never play on stars so I dunno. (I just wanted to win enough that I could wire out 20k, lol) But F those shortstackers.

Joe prob had 1010 or hooks he plays em hard all the time. And yes the ss players are crazy (littlezen)
