BB is eager to see any flop, so I could fold to a BB shove. No reads on UTG. How would you play this one? |
Re: $1 stars MTT - SB w/ JTs - 21 left
You're too short to be limping in the SB with JTs. Shove or fold preflop. Shove is not bad as your stack is big enough to have FE against BB and the weak limper. If one folds to the shove and one calls then you have pretty good equity going in with the dead money.

I don't mind completing pf since it only costs you half. That might be wrong though.
No reason to shove the turn here. Flop checked around, board is rainbow, nothing to be afraid of or any big draws to push out. Plus your shove is more than twice the pot, looks very odd. I would bet around 7k here and then have a very natural push on the river for like 19k that would be 2/3 pot or so. |
Re: $1 stars MTT - SB w/ JTs - 21 left
You have M=4. and still calling here? Playing draw hand OOP with 4 M stack sucks as hell. Shoot or fold pre-flop depending on your read on UTG.

I think Sykes' line (check-call) is good but I'm worried about not getting paid off enough now that I made my hand and everyone checked the flop. I'd bet 1/2 pot here, maybe even a bit less to induce a raise. If nobody calls, you likely weren't gonna make any more on this hand anyway. |
