TKo\'s hand of the day: 66 UTG
 

Today's hand mainly deals with whether my eventual preflop fold was correct or not. Mainly, do I have the proper odds to call when it gets to me the second and/or third time around. I wanted to see a cheap flop. After the first raise & reraise, I thought it was good enough odds to go set-hunting. I folded after the third raise. Naturally, the set came after I was out of the hand. Thanks to all for the input.

My other curiosity question is what are the odds that MP1 didn't have the high pair represented with the AI move. I believe he had QQ or better, but at a $1.20 SNG, one can never be too sure.

Bump....

Re: TKo\'s hand of the day: 66 UTG
 

you hit a set 1/10 times. i would trust your read that
the guy definitely has a better PP. So, in this situation,
you usually don't risk more than 10% of your chips.
I'd've folded. the blinds are still very low, you'll
have plenty of time to find a better spot, imho.

in a turbo, this may well be a re-push all-in PF.

what's the point here...hero played it well...flop is completely irrelevant...not to be harsh but if you start calling 20% of your stack hoping to hit a set then you are gonna be pretty broke

Re: TKo\'s hand of the day: 66 UTG
 

I agree with the first part. I'm curious about how often people see a bluff raise AI at this level. How often is there a bluff here?

Re: TKo\'s hand of the day: 66 UTG
 

Villain is betting the pot...albeit an AI...standard.

Does anyone ever bluff here? um ya the bottom 5%
who haven't a friggin clue.
