Default (39) Bubble in SB vs aggro

Villain seemed decent but was also *very* aggressive post flop. 25/15 10.0af

This is the bubble of a 6max STT - two spots pay (65/35)

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t150 (3 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Button (t3450)
Hero (t2040)
BB (t3510)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">Button folds</font>, Hero calls t75, BB checks

Flop: (t300) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

Read dependent. Doesn't seem like he wants a call though.

FWIW, I'll often CRAI on this kind of flop. Villian's like this almost always bet when checked to.

I fold you only have 325 in on the flop, if he is doing this with air so be it but he may have some combo draw and you only have one pair..

this is the bubble? Raise/push preflop.

Easy push on the flop.

I don't like your preflop call, you are out of position why not raising and shut the hand?


[/ QUOTE ]

Are you assumming that a raise always shuts villain out of the hand?? What about when he calls and now you have to play a raised pot out of position.

I like the preflop call.

Preflop is fine, and making it like 400 is also fine. Flop bet is fine. I the turn I might just bet 300-350. They don't always have the flush and giving a free card sucks. Checking is also fine for pot control. As played I think I'd flop my nuts on the table and call. It just really looks like a bluff that he doesn't want you to call. If he had a flush would he really massively overbet here? it looks like he's just trying to push you around because it's the bubble. He bet an amount that puts you all in because he wants you to fold. Call and laugh in his face when he shows the bluff.

i do think sometims this is a better ten trying to pwn you but getting scared of the board on the turn, but generally i agree with jared here

PF=fine
Flop=bet more generally, I guess against an uber agressive villain bet an amount that will cause him to raise you as you did here....but generally bet 200-250, or CR.

turn= I think against a postflop agro villain where they have some idea of the leverage they hold over you, I think a call is merited here...you'll see enough crap to make it worth it.
