a blind steal flop in satellite final table
Full Tilt satellite to the 100-seat WSOP tournament. It is the final table, 8 left, and top 4 get the seat. The players have been a bit loose, but not very aggressive. There's often limping and little preflop re-raising.
I had trouble converting the HH, sorry: 250/500 Ante 50 - No Limit Hold'em Seat 1: arica24 (7,815) Seat 2: ddawgith (21,660) Seat 3: hero (10,745) Seat 4: B00tytime (26,750) Seat 6: Cathcartian (10,020) Seat 7: thegnome1 (16,535) Seat 8: Porter Hauge (9,045) Seat 9: 1 WATER MAN (3,930) everyone antes... Cathcartian posts the small blind of 250 thegnome1 posts the big blind of 500 The button is in seat #4 *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to hero [8s Qh] Porter Hauge folds 1 WATER MAN folds arica24 folds ddawgith folds hero raises to 1,400 B00tytime folds Cathcartian calls 1,150 thegnome1 calls 900 *** FLOP *** [8c 7s 6c] Cathcartian checks thegnome1 bets 4,600 I hadn't been stealing very often and the final table hadn't been going on very long, though I had been caught bluffing in a sb vs bb hand a few hands ago. His bet on the flop is about a full pot bet and is half of my stack. I think he doesn't want a call, but he's also not going anywhere. On such a draw-filled board, and with his big lead out, it looks like he probably has some sort of draw, but it would also make sense for him to do this with something like two-pair. I'm most interested in how it being a satellite, near the bubble, factors into this hand. Is it to the point where it should be drastically affecting my play? He's clearly committing himself to the hand. Even if I really think he has some sort of draw, do I just want to get out of the way and find some safer spots? I think in a normal (not satellite bubble or final table) situation I would push. As I write this I'm leaning torwards fold. I don't fully understand how I should be changing my strategy at this stage of the satellite. Thanks. |
