200NL Full Ring - Getting the Money In with Aces

RiverMustelid · #1 10-19-2006, 03:19 PM

I have recently been over-reaching myself trying to trap fish. The villain (MP3) is definitely that. He is playing 88/25, but has had large doses of luck leading to a $600 plus stack. I have around $200. Does anybody escape from this - the turn min reraise was certainly a little suspicious, but didnt look like a scarecard. Is there any reason to call rather than push here? Any help throughout the hand gratefully received.

Wrong converter format.

Raise more pre-flop (16-20).

Bet bigger on the flop and turn. Get it in.

raise more preflop, to ~$16 for me... bet ~3/4 pot on the flop. You've put yourself into this predictament by your weak bets that you could be getting bluffed by the min raise (unlikely on the turn tho) or he's got a monster - you can't tell.

also for future posts... cut off the action after villian min raises you, so the responses you receive aren't biased; and your statement "does anybody escape from this" is going to potentially lead to biased answers as well - he had 88 didn't he?

Thanks for the responses, which I agree with. I was trying to suck him in, but clearly this was pointless versus someone who would literally have bet with almost nothing (actually probably that should read nothing).

FYI he had K4 off and scooped the pot. Thx for the advice on post - my first one on this forum, so appreciated. Also - what are good converters to use?

The converter you used is a good one.

Just make sure you set the format to "2+2 forums" and it will show up nicely.
