Final table, TPTK

AtticusFinch · #1 09-25-2006, 12:22 AM

Final table of the FTP 25k last night. 4 remain. I'm the chip leader with 300k. Blinds are 2500/5000. On the button with AJs, I raise to 12500. (2.5 bb has been the standard raise for several levels now).

BB has 250k. A moderately aggressive player, who defends his blinds more than most. He reraises to 40k. I call.

Flop is JT2r. Villain bets 65k. I shove.

Comments?

Kinda hard to flat call here IMO, so it is certainly a tough spot. You're committed to calling later streets if you do so. If I'm playing the hand out, there's only one move - push. I'm not suprised in the least if the villian flips over QQ.

depending on the other stacks at the table....i might fold preflop.

you said also that he defends more than most- that's one thing but has he rr'd steal attempts with great frequency?

Do you mean fold to his reraise? Certainly not a bad idea, and I considered it.

Other stacks were 100-150k range.

Hard to know. No on had called his rrs since the final table began.
