$55 - how much FE do I have?

Scuba Chuck · #1 02-12-2006, 01:26 AM

Raiser has just started to try and bully the table after doubling up recently. He raised this exact same amount the hand before, and I folded AQ (and it was a tough decision for me). My point, is, I think this guys hand range is pretty frickin big, like TJs and 44.

PartyPoker, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t2680)
UTG+1 (t850)
MP1 (t515)
Hero (t975)
Button (t2780)
SB (t1015)
BB (t1185)

Preflop: Hero is in CO with 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG raises to t225, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, Hero ....

Hmmm... FE depends largely on you image IMO, assuming villain is capable of thinking beyond his two cards. I fold this because for 18 BBs I don't see getting into anything better than a CF.

If his range is that big I think you can shove, but I'm mucking to like 99% of players here so be sure of your read.

I don't like pushing here. I think it would be borderline wreckless. I also never trust reads based on just a couple of hands.

i shove it. But i love shoving.

Also, glad to see you are at the 55s!

Right. Kind of what I was getting at, but good point.

Hmm, I wasn't sure at first, but after reading the replys folding seems right... but I think pushing is definetley not a horrid play.. folding is just slightly better. I would prolly push this if I was BB and there were no more people behind me and just to show him not to raise my blind.

That's a really stupid reason to push into someone who is like 5 seats to your right at level 3 of a $55.

im folding becasue there's still 3 people ahead of me and im not giving them a reason to join the race. wait for a better spot, blinds are still only 50

Really? You must not have played much poker, then.
