In the Bubble -- OESFD in BB in a multi-way pot. Time to shove?
Tournament Situation - Stars $20/180 man - on the bubble. So, relatively shallow stacks all around. As bet, winning this pot could put me in top 8, while losing it coud mean I'm out.
Reads - None. Just moved to the table, so noone knows much about me either. The Hand: PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums) UTG (t8585) UTG+1 (t5680) MP1 (t8105) MP2 (t10584) CO (t10608) Button (t4255) SB (t2000) Hero (t5435) Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG calls t200, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls t200, CO calls t200, Button calls t200, SB completes, Hero checks.

Questions 1. Should I have raised more on the flop... like 700 to begin with, to disguise my hand better? 2. As played, do you like the push? |

I agree with a bigger raise on the flop, no question. Disquise your hand plus an easier call to any reraise...I'd do a pot bet ($700 is good to as a % of your stack, commitment level) or check most likely. A check might induce AQ to make a small raise, but with your bet, you are pretty pot committed with either FD or OES, nevermind both. I like the push. He's likely got AQ and knows you're on a draw but at least you may have trips. Only trips have an easier call to your push...2 pair sorta. AQ takes ballz to call a push...oh, if he has KK or AA he's gotta call too, but I doubt AA or KK, probably AQ...possibly a draw also, like Axs (maybe AQs, that would suck). iH8poker |
