$16 TPTK multiway early
How's this? Flop is super drawy so I just call the min raise. First few hands so no reads. I was going to c/c turn but villain's bet looks so weak that I'm sure I'm ahead.

Re: $16 TPTK multiway early
I've seen donks make these kind of bets all the time. {It seems AQ is the hand of the last week.} Honestly though, I would just call. I know it's weak but 6 players saw the flop. I find it hard to believe that one-pair is the best hand here.

It seems to me like co is on some form of draw and wants to get there cheap.
But unfortunately I think my views have been warped a little from seeing results. From results NH. |

Re: $16 TPTK multiway early
Early in a SNG with AQ utg I am raising. Not always a popular decision but calling just means you will end up with a lot of limpers and after the flop you have no idea where you are. Someone could have 10 3o for all I know. Even with AA you wouldn't know what you are up against without a pre flop raise.
If you raised you get a thinned out field and an idea on who might have what. |

Re: $16 TPTK multiway early
This is a mess to play but I like a c/c on the flop.
I mean, if he rr properly, you can not really call. |

[/ QUOTE ] That might be true in theory but in practice what you get is higher variance and still no idea where you are. Early in an SNG, I find that players will call raises with very much the same sorts of hands they would limp with. Yeah, you might knock out T3s, but QT will call a raise. If you raise more to get fewer callers, you've ended up putting a lot of chips in with a hand that needs to improve if you're going to be confident you're ahead. Also, psychologically, you're going to feel you have to cbet a lot of flops and before you know it, you've put in a ton of chips with ace high against players who will sometimes call a raise with nothing and a bet on the flop with the same hand. I'm not saying you're wrong definitively. I think that both points of view have merit. I tend to like keeping pots small if I don't have a great hand because I think having 1700 chips is less of a positive than having 1300 is a negative, but YMMV. |

Re: $16 TPTK multiway early
They both folded and you won so good move. Are you asking because you wanted to get value out of TPGK? I think its pretty risky with such a draw heavy board.

Re: $16 TPTK multiway early
In general i raise AQ in such situation, and in general i don't like going allin for 1500 after limping for 20 with TPTK, i don't believe it ends up good enough times.
As played im potting it on flop, too many draws. |
