    Hi
      Just wanted some opinions on this hand please.
    The hand was in a ds tourny I have about 4.1k as does bb, sb has around 5.5k

    I get dealt 8 10 dia on the button +1. I'm a big fan of suited connectors and semi connectors so I call,
     rest is explained below, (thanks Mohican).
    I know I am behind but I think I have 12 outs (9 dia and 4 Q's (inc Q dia))

    my question to you all is what to do?

    you only have 12 outs. you are counting Qd twice.
    But there is a huge amount in the pot. Call and win and u have trebled up. If it was fast structure its an easy call.
    Even deep stacked, I think you should make the call here. 
    what u should do is put the hand into pokerstove and see what it says.

    i've done it for you, putting you up against 2 random hands and two strong hands both of which contain one of your outs.   I cxhange my mind and its now an easy fold

    Cheers Tea I have run it myself with the cards I remember them having and if I'm right I win 40% of the time against 10 and 26 for the other two

    I will post their hands when post has run for a day
  • edited June 2010
    dont forget, you don't know what they have when you make the decision.  The fact that there is an all-in and a call in front of you means that they should both have decent holdings.  
     I'll look back with interest to see any more discussion.

    I agree but I didn't think either would be shoving all in with K or J paired   thought we were at least looking at paired A's

    I have there proper hands now so will stove it

    Sorry tea,
     I had them both on A preflop as one called and other raised then 1st one reraised and other called so was only thinking they had A rag  maybe up to A9, A10. This was why I called 2nd raise knowing if flop is right for me I could win a big pot. the fact that the 1st raise was only 2bb and the 2nd raise was a min raise definitely gave me the impression that I wasn't up against AK or AQ. Neither did I have them down as the kind of plyrs who would be raising with K or Q high preflop.

    Find a better spot. Easy fold, you could be crushed !
  • edited June 2010
    votes were 3 calls 3 folds

    I pokerstoved it with the hands and I win 40% the time. I did call
    hit the str8 an trebled up
  • edited June 2010

    Easy fold, your flush draw could and probably is dead, and then there's the straight but that's only 4 outs. I definitely fold in this spot. You hav 4.2k with 30/60 blinds plenty of time mate, unless you feel lucky in which case call and still lose. :)

    Or as in this case call and win!
    Didn't put either of them on flush draws and as I explained earlier had them both on raggedy A's due to the weak raise, call, reraise call action preflop.
    you know me mate. While some would fold in this spot I ain't putting it down when I can treble up and think I'm good with 12 outs.

    Well done on treble up, but most the time your going out here, but your game your decision.
  • edited June 2010
    personally feel have overplayed your hand here which has got you in trouble, dont mind call & then call to raise of 180 but when re-raised to 360 would have got out of the way. i always find a deepstack isnt about trying to knock people out as there is plenty of play left so would wait for a better spot here.

    personally would fold flop aswell as you are facing two all ins, so at least one must have a made hand? other one could have hand + draw eg kq which would be nut flush if it hit. one could have hit a straight and other one hit set but still you at best are drawing on 12 outs, but there is alot of play left so i wouldn't risk my hole stack in order to be in prime position, you are getting the odds to hit but staking your tounament on a draw when you dont need to not for me

    I fold... Your str8 and flush draws can both be crushed. Especially as its a deepstack, there are better spots.
