$50rebuy hand vs lilholdem

Whitey · #1 06-08-2007, 11:47 AM

I have recently gone from 5K to 50K in 1 round of blinds but showing reasonable hands for each situation. I'm not sure how he views me.

He has been quiet but the pots he has played have usually been raises/reraises without showdowns.

After he calls me I plan on playing this as cheaply as possible, but the flop made things a little more interesting [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

What range do you put the villan on and whats my best play?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t1600 (8 handed) internettexasholdem.com

saw flop|saw showdown

BB (t18565)
Hero (t48920)
UTG+1 (t22360)
MP1 (t29067)
MP2 (t24078)
CO (t12826)
Button (t16430)
SB (t62110)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
Hero raises to t4800, UTG+1 calls t4800, 6 folds.

AQ, AK...I`m probably taking this to the bank.

wait, how the hell is AK in his range at 800/1600?

Given stack sizes, I'm not sure if I love raising with 66 here.

I think UTG+1 has a monster a bigger percentage than usual; I don't see what he's smooth calling here with 10BB left. Maybe 1010?

You're behind a lot more often then you think, but with prob. 10 outs and the possiblity of folding out AQ hands (weirdly played AJ), I guess push. You're getting your $$ in one way or another and folding out overs is nice.

If you're happy to felt this, then check-push>open push IMO.

People don`t smooth call in position with AK anymore? maybe if he was SB or BB he wouldn`t smooth call...I think he has chips to play with. You`re right though..a lot of people would just push...but I can`t take it out of his range.

Not at usually these stacks, Gravy. It's either a monster (KK-AA) or something oddily played. I worry about the oddly played stuff - is this player a loose-passive pussy who is afraid of you, but not afraid enough to call with AJ/AQ, KQs, something weird. Do I really want to give a free card here? If I check, will he push or take the free card. I don't know. What I do know is that if he has 99+, he's getting it in no matter what; if he has broadways hoping to connect, then the pot is too big to [censored] around.

lol @ open push for $44,000 . not necessary at all. Betting 5,000 would be much more likely to induce an all in from AQ or AK than putting him all in and turning your hand face up

Villain only has 17K left and the pot is already 10K. If I do open push here doesnt this look more like AK than 66?

Whitey · #9 06-08-2007, 12:41 PM

Villain is a very aggro player and his flat call is scary.

No way he has AK here so do we assume this is always AA/KK?

Do we actually have any folding equity?

If you knew much about tournament theory youd know that it is never necessary to bet more than the pot, in any situation, all you do is put more chips at risk and look retarded
