QQ. Can I fold this?

This hand happened in the 2nd hour of a $3R&A at Stars.

Villain finished the 1st hour with about 8k in chips and managed to increase his stack to 22k by entering lots of pots and playing...

Re: Do I have time to wait for a better spot? (FT FTP 12.5k)

No. You don't have time. Go all-in. There's only few hands that I can think of that puts you in bad shape: AA, KK, QQ, JJ, AK and AJ. All the other hands you're 2 to 1 underdog or better.

Re: $10 QQ in small blind

You re-raised t2120 when the pot was t1305. I think this amount is exaggerated. The only hands that will be in the hand right now are AA, KK, QQ or AK, unless your playing against a donkey that would...

Question to 180ers

I'm playing exclusively 4/180s and I'm having a situation happening to me a lot:

My stats say that I get into the money 20% of the time, but most of the time I get busted before the final table. ...

Re: PS 4/180, last 16. Where did I went wrong?

Am I right when I say that the 4/180 players don't pay much attention to "table images"?
I'm saying this because I usually play very tight but sometimes I try to steal some pots near the bubble, and...

Re: PS 4/180, last 16. Where did I went wrong?

I read some posts in this forum advocating the stealing from early limpers in MTT. Do you think that it only makes sense for higher buy-ins tournaments? Shall I play this 4/180s more solidly?

Does...

Re: 87s Fold or Push it?

He has a strange way to open: 1640 chips, he opens with 240 with $30 BB; then he has 1775 chips and he opens with 75 ($30 BB too). In both cases he attacks the pot after the flop with 300 chips. No...

Re: Restealing

To re-steal you don't need a hand. You need guts.

If you're in the middle of a tournament and you see this aggressive guy that is bullying everybody with his raisings, you have to stop him. And...

Re: having a problem with resteals

Ok, thank you.
Though I feel that calling range too tight, lots of players call with much less. Probably down to A8 and 55+, what increases the equity of T7.

BTW, can you tell me what's the...

Re: having a problem with resteals

You're right. But for a re-steal I prefer to play with hands that usually aren't dominated.

Re: having a problem with resteals

To make a re-steal move you have to be a good observant of your table and see what player are raising all the time and which are just expecting to get the right cards to move in.

Also I like to...

I would push all-in.
Your M is just 3,5 and you have a good chance with this draw.

KQ Is it good to push?

16 left in a PS 4/180.
My chip count makes me 15th.
The villain likes to limp with small pairs but calls if someone raises (even with a pair of deuces).

Re: Good call?

Your M is 7. I don't like your raise to 1000, I would raise all-in.

After your call and the button raise, you have to put it all in the middle.

Re: 4/180 spot, big draw

Re: AJs versus hijack 4xBB raise

Re-raise to 3000 if he seems like a loose player that opens with hands like Ax or KQ in that position (if he re-raises all-in probably you have to call);

Fold if he seems like a tight guy that...

Re: Whats the river play?

I put villain in a small pair or a flush draw.
The pot is now 5200, so I think a bet of about 2000 it's the right option. If he has a flush draw, he missed it and folds. But you are offering about...

K3s Shall I push?

The table is aggressive. The blinds are 200/400 and 50 ante, so some of the small stacks are going all in and most of the time they get a call.

Re: JJ in a rough spot pre 11r

The blinds are 800/1600 + 75 ante, right?
So your M is about 32.
Without anymore information about UTG, I'd fold.
