Re: Stars $27.50- QJ- squeeeeze??
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I think this is a really bad time for a squeeze... [/ QUOTE ] why is that? [/ QUOTE ] The combo of a UTG raise and a call (from a good player) = strength IMO. The action here is a lot different than your std LP raise (from an active player) and then a call from (a predictable player.) If button is good, he's going to flatcall here with KK;AA a lot, i'm not saying that his range isn't a lot wider than big PP's, but this is not a good spot. [/ QUOTE ] UTG has a wide raising range since it is 4 handed, hand values are up and blinds and antes are juicy stealing. Button could call with SC's, low pockets, and also even sutied/connected faces...many hands that he can't call a squeeze with. Though your thinking of Button holding AA or KK and making a play is correct and could be true, it only accounts for a small part of his range. I think a squeeze works enough here for it to be +EV. chrismystero |
