Hi,

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t2360)
UTG+1 (t1160)
Hero (t2985)
MP2 (t1095)
MP3 (t1815)
CO (t1435)
Button (t1195)
SB (t650)
BB (t805)

Preflop: Hero is in MP1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG calls t30, UTG+1 folds, Hero raises to t90, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, BB calls t60, UTG calls t60

Flop: (t285) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets t200, BB raises to t715 (All-in), UTG folds, Hero calls t515

UTG villain directly raised allin with ATo (!!!) previous hand only to be called by short stack's AQ. Clearly, he is not good.

How is my line ? Check behind on the flop ? Other ideas ?

Seems fine. You have to call obviously the odds are so good.

check behind is probably allright too. I think I would bet though, nice with some money in the pot when you hit that flushdraw and you may win the pot there on the flop and you allow stupid players to hang themselves with stupid moves that some players tend to do on these flops, since "there is no way we have a jack".

What is that preflop 60 reraise, either raise more or call behind, such raise serves no purpose. As played i like call of-course.

3xbb. should have made 150 i would say. as played it looks good. you mentioned something about an overpair??

RexWoo · #5 10-09-2007, 08:31 AM

yep sorry it was meant "overcards" (to late to change it now foe me)

auc hincloss · #6 10-09-2007, 08:40 AM

regardless it doesn't matter, odds dictate the call. line looks good.

I don't like that 90 raise preflop, make it 120/150 or just limp behind.

I usually check that flop and RAI to any bet, I think you will extract more value from mi pairs or from a cbet.

Luis : I'm last to act on the flop.

I see it pretty fine, although I'd raise a little bit more preflop like 4bb. I wouldnt check the flop, if your overcards and FD are good is a perfect moment for a semibluff and if you get raised is not a bad situation u might even be against a smaller flush draw. Probably if u get raised is by someone with a middle pocket pair from fives to tens, I guess most of those 'not good' would slowplay their trips.
