Thinking that possibility, combined with the fact that we had two shorter stacks leaving soon, I take a shot at the pot. It is possible that Villain called because I have been doing the same raises when hitting top pair, but have not shown the hands. Reraising AI after Min-reraise seems to be one of my leaks, which needs to be repaired. Is it too risky to steal this pot when Villain has you covered? How should I consider playing if I do not believe Villian's min-reraise? Should I play a stop & go, or , considering the two short stacks, simply take the move as gospel and and fold with the t2590 I have left? |

I was following you until the flop re-raise. All in or fold at that point IMO. I probably fold.

Re: TKo\'s Hand of the Day: Playing Overcards Near SNG Bubble.
I hate putting in 1/2 our stack and folding.
If I have your read, and am OOP, I'm moving in pf as I think we have his range well covered. With your line, you get to bet into whatever strength his raise meant, while he'll likely give you more credit for a hand just like you have than a pair. Now, no matter what you do you are tied to this pot after you lead out and are minraised, right? He flips over 88 right? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] -ZEN |

Re: TKo\'s Hand of the Day: Playing Overcards Near SNG Bubble.
Zen...You are correct. I am tied to the hand as soon as I put in the t1000 r/r, as it represents ~25% of my stack. The flop missed me completely, so my play depends on what I think his minraise/call meant. Most of the table has been folding to these minraises, so I decided to challenge it. His call of my reraise didn't surprise me due to the 2.5:1 odds I left him. I did not want to chase him out.
As far as what he turned over, I'll save that until later. I'm hoping a few others chime in. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] |

Re: TKo\'s Hand of the Day: Playing Overcards Near SNG Bubble.
What do you think of <call PF, C/R allin on flop, if he checks behind flop, PSB the turn>
You violated one of the basic tenets of tournament play, which is not to challenge a bigger stack without you have Tha Nutz, IMO. To quote SunTzu: "It is the rule in war, if our forces are ten to the enemy's one, to surround him; if five to one, to attack him. If equally matched, we can offer battle; if slightly inferior in numbers, we can avoid the enemy; if quite unequal in every way, we can flee from him. " AQo is nothing I would want to challenge a bigger stack that looks like he wants to mix it up with. Not PF. Not on that flop. Not on any flop without an A or Q-high. Regards Gar "BkAWK" Pike |

I think I would have liked to see a reraise to 1500 pf, then you can shove about a pot sized bet. As played, if you were willing to get away from the hand then check/fold the flop. If you bet the flop, be prepared to get it in as the pot is about 2/3 your stack.

Doesn't this belong in STT?

Raise to about 1600 preflop. Shove any flop
