Rusty At MTT\'s : Need Checkup
Been a while since I've played in a MTT, so I had to think about this. Next time I want it to be automatic. Sorry I don't have the exact HH, but the file got deleted somehow. It's the Party 20K from last night. Blinds at 30 / 60 I think, no reads on opponent as I just got moved and this is my first hand.
My stack is a tad above beginning stack, at 3200, villain has me covered. I'm in EP with black 9's and I open to 3x BB : 180 ... guy in MP calls and the rest fold ... Flop comes 3 4 6 rainbow ... I bet 250, villain calls ... pot at about 950. Turn is a 7. I bet 500 and villain raises to 850, which I thought was really weird. My next action should be?

I'd call and then check fold the river. You could even find a fold in the min raise but i think it's too small a raise to knock you off of your overpair. The guy probably has 55.

Re: Rusty At MTT\'s : Need Checkup
Had a very similiar hand happen last night. I had TT.
Called turn; check fold river. Villian "showed" pocket dueces. I've concluded that idiots are actually ingenious, employing methods of foolishness to confound the wise.

Re: Rusty At MTT\'s : Need Checkup
Alright, I found the HH ... I apologize because I misrepresented the hand, but I don't think it makes any difference, other than the obvious fact he wouldn't be able to raise from 500 to 850 unless he was AI, at which point it's a no brainer to call ... the raise is still a bit odd to me ... regardless, when I went through hand holdings in my mind, it was the straight that had me more worried than an overpair ( for no real reason, I'm just a pessimist ) ... here's the action up to this point ... getting 4.5:1 this is a standard call correct?

Re: Rusty At MTT\'s : Need Checkup
I still thijk it's a fold. Villain's weird raise (IMHO) is either a pot-steal attempt or a really strong hand building up a pot in which you will either have to set him in or call his push on the river due to the pot odds.
On a board like this I like betting 350 ON THE FLOP, and fold to resistance. 220 is more conductive to floating than 350 IMHO.
