Limit is a game where you need to find folds occassinally to be profitable. However the only hand that beats you here is AK and it has to be AK slow played. You have to call.

Re: Stars $20 Rebuy: Pocket 9\'s facing overshove

if his range is wide, why do you want to fold? against the range you gave, we're 60% to win.

Re: Stars $20 Rebuy: Pocket 9\'s facing overshove

Villain's Range is pretty wide given his stack size. Could be a big A, weak A soooted, or any pocket pairs except AA/KK.

Without a specific read, I probably fold.

Re: PS Sunday Hundred Grand Do I have ANY FE?

Not against a lagtard who resteals with a minraise.

However, you need to build stack. If you think your A is best, push and take his chips.

I'd push PreFlop.

I'd push the Flop.

I'd push the River. (Especially here as I want this to seem like an overbet/steal and induce a call).

Re: how to get my money in here w/ monsterdraw

Not that it's right...but I probably would have played it the same.

PF - Free look with Kxs in BB.

Flop - 4:1 odds to hit 2nd nuts.

Turn - All-in or fold, so gamble.

Probably better to...

Re: $4/180 KQo gets pushed over

You're either dominated or a coinflip.

Fold. (KQo plays better multiway anyhow).

Re: OOP late in 4/180

Your thread title says it all.

Fold Kxs in EP PF.

Raise/steal with it in LP and blinds.

That is all.

Re: plan for playing 10\'s preflop in a raised pot.

If you call, you might get the blinds and limpers to come along for the ride, giving you implied odds. You have position on the raiser and can let it go should the flop not favor you.

Call.
