I would call expecting to see a lot of qj/dd/cc draws here, maybe a set of 8s, but I make poor decisions so it was probably the KK
Anymore info on villain? Its very early in proceedings. Does he play mega tight early doors in these usually? If he does then KK is very likely.
i see it so many times, ppl folding hand after hand, then u get to level 5 or 6 with around 10bbs and just looking for a marginal hand to shove only for someone to call with a better hand. doesnt it make sense to see a cheaper flop with semi hands that could hit?
This is a very standard fold preflop, everyday day of the week, in a DYM.
Once you have called pre you have to stack off imo otherwise there is no point in the playing the hand in the first place.
Q. What were you hoping to hit when you called preflop with A8s?
A. Two pair or a flush.
Blinds are low also so you still have enough chips to comeback :P
street 1. matter of opinion whether or not i shud of got involved or not. some said yes some said no.
street 2. i hit top 2 pair on flop. i bet the pot, he calls(not much else i can do here).
street 3. king on turn, he goes all in. i think either representing ace king, or set of kings. i fold...some ppl are saying shove and some fold.
personally i don't think i did ne fing wrong, i was purely asking ppl at the time whether or not they think he had ace king or kings...i was confused cos if i had ace king or kings, i would of checked, for him to probably bet, for me to either re-raise or call, but try and eventually go all in.
whether i wud of cashed or not this hand still took place, so kinda guess its not all results orientate
The turn jam is the kind of thing you see people do when turning a set there, so I understand why you suspected K's.
Still its going to be a tricky fold, could so easily be so many other hands
Street 2, bet more
From turn its really about getting it all in imo
Shanx is spot on though i dont think you should be posting replies such as its all about opinions and mine is right, if you want people to be constructive i suggest maybe you listen or maybe have a debate
Key issue with DYM is your not playing to win, just not to lose, so you dont really want to be gambling too much. Calling with "a suited A" A8 is gambling tbf, especially calling off 5bb's from EP raiser.
I think your overall approach is interesting. Your comment about coming in when blinds are small rather than whittling down and jamming 10B's later on does have merit. But then electing to fold when one of the hands you've come in on early with connects so well does seem very counter intuitive.
Personally I've always felt that the above approach is very dangerous. As your likely always going to be hitting some aspect of the board, creepy creepy catching monkey, investing over streets, ending up in no mans land. If your sat deep you have more post flop options, but these dyms are pretty shallow turbo's, with no real margin for coming in significantly behind and catching up.
Each to their own tho
5x bb raise i would not be calling with anything but QQ+ here
if it was a 2 x or maybe 3 x i dont mind flatting here pre but ignore the rest of what i said, Cheers AMYBR you made me realise it was a 5 x raise
im with stupid :P
i do appreciate the help and tips etc..even if i was criticizing people. shan was saying i played it all completely wrong where as i thought i played it ok.
plus i seen shan fold n shove their way to the money before (last night £11 dym, bit of a monster got to level 9).
hopefully if i see u on the tables agen, u think im loose when im sitting with aces
ps. ye i no i sed i bet full pot, even tho i did half pot my mistake.
You hit a dream flop & still had to lay this down later
Later on in a tourney maybe ok but i think 1st hand there will be better spots
