Stars $27.50- QJ- squeeeeze??
This is from the final table of the 25k gtd on Stars. The table is playing fairly loose preflop, most hands are being won uncontested. On average, we are prob raising each once an orbit. The cold caller is prob the best player left in the tournamnent. This is the first time I recall that a bet has been called preflop outside of the blinds. Re-raises are being respected, no re-raise has been 4 bet once at the final table. Do you squeeze here? If so, to how much?

I think this is a great spot to squeeze given your reads on the table. Im probably making it t350,000 here. If we get a caller preflop, I'm pushing every flop especially since we'll be OOP. If someone pushes over the top of your squeeze, well, time to re-evaluate and do some math I guess.

i don't think i'd squeeeze a UTG raiser unless he was an absolute dimwit and has raised UTG light a few times that i saw.
what are chances here that button (good player) called to induce a squeeze? is he that good/does he know either you or the SB are capable of pulling it off? |

Umm it's UTG 4 handed. The only point I want to make is that if you reraise you may as well shove, since making it 350 and folding seems really bad unless you can stick him to QQ+ AK on a 4bet, and even it's really close as to whether you're getting the right price.

Stacks are way to big to be raising to only 350K. I definitely push here - this is a beautiful place to squeeze.

Barry [/ QUOTE ] Ya, in hindsight I do see your point of view, pushing does seem better. $350k is almost half his stack and is ugly if someone 4bets. I'm definitely more convinced by a push after considering it more. |

[/ QUOTE ] omg lol, brainfart. anyway, shoving here sucks. its not really a good idea to squeeze 4 handed unless you've got soulreads. button is showing strength with the flat and the only choice to squeeze you have is a shove. anything that calls you will have you absolutely killed and lots of times you can be drawing to 3 outs |
