Satellite hand, down to the end
2 seats awarded, 4 players remain. villain in this hand is a good player and is very aggressive. he has been especially so as the tournament has wound down, aware of the situation. Stacks: Hero 1.7M villain 540k others: 600k, 900k. Hero has A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in the big blinds. blinds are 10k/20k with a 2k ante. folds to villain on the SB, he makes it 35k to go. Hero calls. flop is K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Villain bets 70k. Hero calls. Turn is A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Villain pushes for 415k. Hero?

Re: Satellite hand, down to the end
Im gona pre-face this with the fact im def no expert at satelittes, however,
I think PF should be a reraise, he will be aware that you should in reality be playing the least hands of everyone and he is aggressive so he probably figures he can steal your blind pretty often. Unless you think you can fold into a seat already (??), which means PF is a fold, I think I like reraising to 240k, showing him he is playing for his stack if he wants to go... as played, im pretty puzzled by his overpush, i really have no idea whether he would do this with a J, or two pair. As the board is rainbow, this seems like it could easily be a worse two pair, but I don't know whether its worth the gamble at this stage of the tournament? (sorry, not a very helpful answer!)

Re: Satellite hand, down to the end
man for a satellite as the cl i really dont like the play
pre is either a fold or a significant raise, id vote for a big raise to 200k ish post flop is too passive as well if you play - you cant call that - you should either fold or push the turn perplexes me - he could have kj, qj, but the overbet isnt what any normal person would do with the str8. as played i call the turn

Re: Satellite hand, down to the end
note: villain made it 55k to go not 35k. my error.
it should be worth noting that the seat in question is a WSOP ME seat. 3rd and 4th place prizes are largely inconsequential. in effect it's top two get a huge prize, 3rd and 4th get nada.

Re: Satellite hand, down to the end
My first reaction upon reading was that you're ahead. Despite that, I don't think it's worth a call because of your current chip stack. It doesn't seem to be worth the risk, especially if you can enjoy the advantages of big stack play in a satellite. I think it's a call if you're on the seat bubble instead of two away.

[/ QUOTE ] I don't really get sats, but don't we just shove this pre-flop, on the understanding that villain's calling range should be ridiculously narrow? I think calling the flop lead is really bad.

Re: Satellite hand, down to the end
Shoving 28XBB PF w/AQ is lame; esp as CL.
Folding the flop is EV- as villain's range includes hands without a K; raising the flop when u hav middle pair a gutshot; and an over is a matter of taste and style.
