Been having nightmares about this hand!
Playing a home game, sit & go $15 entry 9 players, starting stacks of 150k.
Blinds 200/400 I was dealt K J offsuit in middle position. Raised Preflop to 3000 chips, player in late position calls, big blind calls. Flop comes J A J, giving me 3 of a kind jacks, player in late position goes all in for 100k total. big blind folds. At this stage only 2 hands can beat me a pair of aces, or ace jack, as there was no pre flop raise from my opponent i didnt put him on a pair of aces, and i felt that A J was unlikely, in fact i put him on a big pocket pair such as kings or queens. My opponent is an habitual bluffer so i felt he was trying to force me out of the pot. I called the bet which cost me about two thirds of my stack, and soon after i busted out. (yes i went on tilt!) This is my first post on these forums, any advice would be appreciated. |

Re: Been having nightmares about this hand!
That's quite a push if he went all in with a boat. Are you second guessing yourself, because I can't imagine calling being a bad play in the long run.

Re: Been having nightmares about this hand!
That's a really big preflop raise...
Basically here you just need to decide if he is bluffing (or value betting an Ace or soemthing) more than half the time and if so call. The problem is that your opponent bet so much that the money that's in the pot almost doesnt matter. |

any advice would be appreciated. [/ QUOTE ] post in BBV. and..... 1. why are the blinds so low with such enourmous stacks? is that why you raised about 8 times the BB? 2. you have to be pretty damn sure its a bluff to call 100K to win a couple thousand chips! |

Re: Been having nightmares about this hand!
Thanks for the replies, i forgot to say in my original post that my opponent did indeed have pocket aces. I have been constantly replaying the hand over in my head and the main reason i called was that there was no preflop raise, and i was pretty sure he would have re-raised me pre flop with pocket aces. The call was'nt going to cost me all my chips. I went all in next hand with A 7 suited and got called by the guy in the big blind and guess what, he had pocket aces!
