Interesting hand

edited July 2014 in Tournament Strategy

Pre-flops was a mis-click

Really interesting on the river, I think I should have jammed here. But it is still possible that 1 of the two villians has a Jack, but not overly likely.

    I like a little more on the flop

    Jam river for value, obv call now. Why the check? What's more likely to bet than call?

    sick spot - I call but hate it!

    I expect to see JJ and two PP so KK or 1010

    I actually think a check is best on river - who would call a shove??  only a J or a big hand that the op thinks he/she  cant fold like KK / QQ.  You check - guy with Ax shoves as thinking a split - guy with a PP calls thinking thats what it is and you take all the money....  Or am I being a bit optimistic? haha

    Run Well

    Flop sizing is good definitely don't go any bigger.

    Considering the stack sizes I think I just jam river. Not gonna be overly concerned by a J as played.

    Yeah defo, think we can even go a bit smaller on the flop, like anywhere between 40/50% on the flop.

    Given stack sizes etc, also think it's just a jam OTR. Think I was overly worried about jack given 2 callers OTT.

    Not sure what J's either villain can feasibly have after calling OOP on a 7 5 5r flop (less pocket J's of course).

    Can only assume you've checked river to induce something from them so happy days, get them chips in.

    As opposed to Nuggy, I call and love it.

    Really interesting, i was up against pocket aces and pocket 5s

    2 out of 3 isnt so terrible, i guess:)

    On the flop bet, obviously we can get away with a smaller bet for a few reasons, but is the amount we get called going to vary with our sizing much in these type of games on these boards. We look strong no matter how much we bet Think its easier to get a villain pot commited if we bet a little more, we wont always get 2 callers.

    Depends on the villain but it's easier to fold a hand like 88 to a bigger flop bet as opposed to a smaller one. Plus hands like AK/AQ/AJ are going to want to see a turn for this price than if we bet bigger. 

    As played, we have to shove river. 5x might no longer shove for value and PP's are going to check back. So the only hands that are definitely going to shove are 55 and Jx/JJ. We obv can't c/f because of that, but I'd rather put the money in when I'm getting a lot more worse hands to call!
