3rd hand of the Turbo. Completely read/history less.

I'd probs fold JJ, snap with KK, but what do to with QQ and 150bb but in a fast MTT?

    Shame it's a turbo really ;)

    i'm not sure that the fact it's a turbo has any bearing on hand #3 in level 1?

    for me when someone slam dunks 150bb into a 15bb pot it's just too good a spot to pass up

    I wouldn't be surprised to see AA or KK here but also people do this a lot with AK - AJ, JJ and just random hands like KJs etc. 

    Call. You also have to factor in the buyin level. At £11 there a lot of....gamblers shall we say?

    I just found myself in a similiar situation in the 2-20pm Deepie, though this time with a read.

    The villain late registered and hasn't played a hand yet in about four orbits. I can't remember him/her specifically, but my notes simply say 'rock, always has it'.

    I immediately thought of this thread and used the entire timebar before folding. I assumed a maximum range of AK/JJ+, though quite possibly tighter. There's also the non-trivial chance the opener has a calling hand (AK/KK+?). Considering the structure and the villains exploitable strategy this becomes a disciplined fold in my opinion.

    FWIW I said 'folded QQ' in the chatbox, the villain claimed his/her shove was a misclick but didn't mention hand-strength.

    Misclick shove lol :-)
  • edited May 2014
    Haha love that ! Always a miss  click when shove few hundred BB into a a pot of 5/6 bigs.

    I think I fold there, then if I see them do it again I am gutted didn't call!

    I think hh one is a snap call but GaryQQQ is a snap fold. Also don't believe the misclick nonesense!! If I misclick it's because I try and type a number and it accidentally adds an extra 0 on the end. Not sure you can accidentally misclick the all in button though.

    The reason I would fold hand 2 is purely because of structure and stack size. In a regular tournament (100BB deep) of low buyin then the decision is so different and is easily more of a call.

    Misclicks like this do happen though. I have done it a couple of times when moving my cursor to select a table at the same time the table pops to the front for my decision!

    Hand history is long gone, but I did call (pretty quickly tbh), and he rolled over 64s. Held despite an awful 2 3 6 flop haha.

    Happy to go with the hand, but wasn't exactly in love with it, so nice to gauge some reactions. Thanks for the comments :)
