$11 Sacrificing too much of my stack with correct pot odds?
Villain straight forward 30/8 player, the size of his raise on the flop establishes for me what he has.
My question is: should I be using half my stack in this situation, even with the correct pot odds I feel this is not a great use of my chips. eat 1 - SB ($285 in chips) Seat 2 - BB ($2880 in chips) Seat 3 - Hero (UTG) ($1350 in chips) Seat 5 - UTG+1 ($3605 in chips) Seat 6 - MP ($1740 in chips) Seat 7 - CO+1 ($1425 in chips) Seat 8 - CO ($1110 in chips) Seat 9 - Villain ($1105 in chips) SB - Posts small blind $15 BB - Posts big blind $30 *** POCKET CARDS *** Dealt to Hero [A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]] Hero - Raises $90 to $90 UTG+1 - Folds MP - Folds CO+1 - Folds CO - Folds Villain - Calls $90 SB - Folds BB - Folds *** FLOP *** [8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]] (Pot $225) Hero - Bets $90 Villain - Raises $240 to $240 Hero - Calls $150 *** TURN *** [8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]] [6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]] (Pot $705) Hero - Checks Villain - Bets $240 Hero - Calls $240 *** RIVER *** [8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]] [10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]] (Pot $1185) Hero - Checks Villain - Checks |

As played you have to call the flop raise. And you're not getting the correct price to call the turn bet FWIW. As a general rule, in order to fully exploit your opponents' terrible late game play it's best to not gamble on draws early.

UTG you've got a lot of action to face, limping in with AQ it is easier to play post-flop and get away from the hand.

IŽd limp.
As played bet the flop like t170 and go from there. |

Re: $11 Sacrificing too much of my stack with correct pot odds?
I don't like preflop and flop.
UTG I like limping AQs that early in the game. With that flop I think you have much more to gain checking with the intention of raising rather then lead. Leading OOP will make you win a small pot or it will just out you in a terrible situation where the pot is getting big. As played I probably reraise all in, you still have FE and a minimum of 12 outs. |

Re: $11 Sacrificing too much of my stack with correct pot odds?
Thanks for your suggestions, I think you are right in suggesting I keep the pot small.
I was just wondering if anyone could tell me whether I am right or wrong with my pot odds. [ QUOTE ] you're not getting the correct price to call the turn bet FWIW. [/ QUOTE ] If I count the other 3 aces as outs I have a 26% chance of hitting on the river (roughly 3:1). Discounting the 3 aces I have a 20% chance (4:1). The pot on the turn is 945, with me needing to call a bet of 240 (giving me 3.9:1). So even discounting the aces I am roughly getting the right price. Is this correct, or have I made a mistake? Please don't mention the reverse implied odds of another ace hitting, my head will explode. |
