shove or fold pf

You should have some reads by now. A raise isn't horrible, against an unknown I would fold pf at these stakes. Combined pot odds and implied odds that you get villains stack 100% of the time is about 13-1. I guess call the reraise and hope to flop a set. I like to have a read that villain can fold pf with 77 in the co. Oh, as played I fold the flop.

bad situation.

I don't think you can fold to the min-reraise preflop against uan unknown but a read would be nice and I would fold against a semi-tight player.

Now fold the flop.

I think I'm starting to agree that with no read I should have folded pf. With the pot odds and implied odds I think calling the min. raise is right.

So if I did have a read I should be more inclined to steal against more tight and passive blinds in this spot.. right?
or do most feel this is always a pf fold vs. all opponents?

why fold pre flop? I mean you could flip your cards face up and move all your chips in and it would still be +EV. If you're afraid to play after the flop then just move in.

dt58 · #9 08-10-2007, 02:51 PM

I'm not sure but you might be right that it is +EV to push and show but only slightly. I think the reason for folding is because it is still too early in the game to be getting into big coin flips and by pushing you will either add less than 10% to your stack or get in a coin flip cuz there are no hands that will call that you have dominated.

I also think its not about being scared to play post flop because we are in pos. but most of the hands value comes from stealing the blinds, and i don't know if that value is big enough at this point in the tournament.
