$10 PLHE AK

gilbert · #1 10-17-2006, 08:08 AM

I just got moved this table and I'm still somewhere in my first orbit.

No reads on the other players but I did notice that UTG+1 called a pot sized raise preflop in mp and flopped nut straight with JTo in an earlier hand and slowplayed until fifth street.

dude, it's a $10 and you have TPTK on a safe flop.

reraise pf tho, they'll still call and stack off with ATo

If this was NLHE I would push preflop with all of that dead money in the pot but since it is PLHE I don't mind the pf call. You have position and the pot will be big enough that if you hit TPTK+ you will be able to get all of your money in by the turn at the latest. Someone was destined to get all in on this hand with all of that pf action.

I like the flop push with all of these players someone is likely to stack off with a lesser K in a $10 tourney.

Sorry that you ran into a set but you played the hand fine.

I actually ran into K9 and KQ on a k high board and mhig [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'm not a tourney player, I'm just trying them out so the buyin didn't matter, I was just wondering if I played it right or not.

It seemed like since it was pot limit a pf call would be alright, especially since I already had some chips. I obv hit a perfect flop but I was just worried about 66 or 22 but I obviously couldn't fold.

btw, i'm in this tourney if you still are too.

and tho it's obv to you, i'm on your left in the FPP sat. i knew the name was familiar, so i searched.

yeah, you're still in it. you're winning. ass.

I wouldn't cold-call with AKo in a multi-way pot. I'd re-pop and take it from there.
