Default 25NL 6M, 96s SB, In which I do many \'bad\' things.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
4 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $8.35
Button: $14.20
Hero: $34.20
BB: $10

Button's 3th hand. He has raised and overpushed a flop bet both times all-in and gotten folds from one of the other players. BB is straightforward and weak.

UTG remarks "you will bust out"

Pre-flop: (4 players) Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises to $0.85</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

I'm looking for 15:1+ implied odds with this hand. That's my rule of thumb. OOP I want a little more. I have 18:1, I'm calling this all day against someone with pushitis. bad?

Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($2.55, 3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Button bets $1.75</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $3.5</font>, BB folds, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises all-in $13.35</font>,

Bingo! I hit TP. This is the nuts vs. Button as far as I am concerned, but I want to make sure the straightforward BB doesn't like the flop. He doesn't. I minraise to induce a push. bad? He pushes so fast I start to have second thoughts.

Me: really?
Button: pay for your flush kid
Me: I have TP
Button: you aint gonna see it free

How do you read this chat tell?

Hero calls.

I fold preflop here. If you're playing for stacks with top pair, there are much better hands. The strength of 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] is flopping a draw. But aggressive Button probably won't let you see the turn and river for cheap, so that cuts down on the value of the hand. You'd be better with any A or any 2 broadway if Button will raise and push most hands.

But given your read of Button, I think you have to call. He could have teh draw himself.

I fold pre.

Based on the flop action, what range are you putting the button on?

when he says something like "gotta pay to see it" he's making it seem like he has a tptk type of hand...which means he probably doesnt.

if you lost...oh well...reload and stack donk lol

he had Kd4x, my hand holds up.

I felt like posting something that was heavily read-based, since so much of my play relies on reads.

I'm surprised everyone said fold preflop, but you are all probably right. I could have stacked him easier than this.
