$5 - AKs UTG - Bubble
Poker Stars, $5 + $0.50 NL Hold'em Tournament, 200/400 Blinds, 9 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter SB: 8,132 BB: 8,805 Hero (UTG): 9,441 UTG+1: 9,448 UTG+2: 5,905 MP1: 14,439 MP2: 17,627 CO: 11,437 BTN: 5,575 Pre-Flop: (825) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (UTG) <font color="red">Hero raises to 1,200</font>, <font color="red">UTG+1 raises to 4,400</font>, 7 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to 9,416 and is All-In</font> 30ish left to money. Villain is 25/10, I'm 15/10. I know this is standard.. just wondering if I should've picked a better spot. I don't see him raising less than AK/TT+ What does an overbet like this usually indicate besides him isolating me? |

Re: $5 - AKs UTG - Bubble
How much better a spot do you want? I might have raised a bit more UTG but mostly I play this the same.

Re: $5 - AKs UTG - Bubble
Yah I raise 1500-1600 utg here... I don't think it would have really mattered here...
As played I think you have to call... |

30ish left to money. [/ QUOTE ] This is not the bubble. I'm sorry you lost your coinflip but here's no other way to play this. |

4xBB PF, push over his raise is the most std. line I can think of in this spot

[/ QUOTE ] I know it's not technically the bubble, but I see most players tightening up at this stage.. but that doesn't really factor in too much here I guess. This post isn't intended to illict pity, I'm far beyond caring if I lose a flip. I'm just wondering if I made the right play, even if he shows me QQ preflop. |

Re: $5 - AKs UTG - Bubble
Are you just looking for affirmation of your play here or would you seriously listen if someone told you to fold to his 3-bet?
What if I said open fold preflop - you're OOP, have a drawing hand, can find a better spot, etc., etc.? |

[/ QUOTE ] FYP... at later levels, reducing the size of your pf raises to 2.5x is standard and smart... PLUS, if you do vary your raise sizes by position, you'd typically want to make your EP raises smaller... PLUS, raising smaller here may be more likely to induce a reraise here, which I'm more than happy to push over. |
