($11) 6STT Early hands - AK Vs. suspected maniac

oddsock · #1 08-09-2006, 04:28 AM

Hand 3, Level 1, Crypto shorthanded. I am facing a bet of 75 and am sitting with AKo. I have played this guy a few times - he seems to monkey around early on and prefers to big stack early or bust.

Would the standard here be to raise (225?) to isolate him and would you call an allin preflop if he reraised allin on you?

I assume obviously that if I miss and he leads out I dump, if he leads out and I hit I reraise allin, if he checks to me and I miss I put in some sort of cont bet (seeing as I will be down to 775 chips from a 1000 start, would 175-200 be ok?)

Finally, would you guys pull the same move with AQ/J??

Sorry, but I am extremely new to STTs and I accept any abuse some might offer...

Dude, you need to tell your position, his position, the blindlevels etc. if you want some answers on this one.

It's level 1 of a crypto tournament - blinds are 15/7 -
6 player tournament and original bettor is UTG, I am in the cutoff.

I am at work now and I do not have a link to a convertor that works for crypto but if you search for posts that I have made you will find the link. Just remeber to edit out the Ring game before posting.
