    fold or 3 bet pre

    as played, you are defo beat, so its a question of if you wish to pay to hit a club, or possibly 2 pair, but theres no garentee that is good...

    I think you can fold the flop but like i say i hate a flat preflop generally.

    Agree with fold/3 bet pre greg but i do not agree that we are always beat here.  Do we have any reads or observations on this guy Don?

    As played i call.  Then again I'm good at getting there.

    a weird over jam like this is normally the nuts in my experience, or at least something they think is the nuts. I think that KJcc  or K10cc are two of the possible hands that we are beating...
    Ok very occasionally it can be a tilt ship with not a lot, but again, i really dont wanna call off my mtt on a draw... or do i!? :) tempting innit!

    U really thing our top pair is good enuf to make the call? surely we have kicker issues, but at least our clubs can get there.. but will they get there often enough to justify a call~?

    nice post Donald btw! I know 100% your not folding, but at the time of posting i didnt know the result... i do now :)

    I'm still blind to the result so I will continue.  I get where you're coming from Greg but I need some more info on the guy, hopefully Don has it.  I've seen this be everything from the nuts to a gut shot on that site.  A lot of people over there don't want to be bluffed so much they just jam, I really don't think he's that nutted here.

    guy has been opening lots in posision, lots of normal cbets nothing like this, cbet folding mostly. This was sort of my reason for the call pre rather than the 3b.

    Checked to check raise this flop then that happened. My mind just melted.

    Snap call. Ive played in plenty of these tournaments on stars they have huge fields so to give yourself any chance of going deep you have to have a few gambles to get a big stack. If your going to call a raise with A5 clubs OOP then hit that flop you cannot fold. I wouldnt be totally suprised if you where ahead here tbh.

    Why 3bet a hand that flops well? Why fold ahand that flops well whilst deep stacked against most likely weak opposition?

    because we are trying to make +ev decisions whilst at the same time remembering that we should be hugely +ev versus the field so we dont need to take every thin edge, waiting for a bigger edge can reduce our variance.



    Imo call pre. Imo now assign a selection of ranges for hands he could play this way, then stove those ranges see which range you think is most likely see how different the equities are and decide from there based on the the number or runners left, your percieved edge, your seat position etc etc.

    looool no sir

    I don't mean in game


    click time get stove out do 30 calculations and analyse the data.

    I mean now we've got a spot that after the fact we aren't sure about spend the time comparing equities.


    what happens when he has too many random draws that we crush
    what equity do we have vs just sets
    what equity do we have vs sets+ some draws + some spackouts with gutters

    compare those equities, compare the chances of each happening, choose your action call or fold now based on what you've just worked out.

    it's not for in game. it's for out of game. but having done this for this hand, next time you face a similar spot you are in a better position to make a good decision.

    I have no idea how my post could be seen as sarcastic.

    Stove results

    Ive tried to balance out his range, as i said hes cbet folded lots so the overbet shove could just as easy be him just saying i aint letting you make a move here.

    The good news is i rarley use a timebank, as a result i think i had about 180seconds to use here, which would be enough i think

    Against just sets we have 30% equity.

    Against all PP pairs inc sets we have 86% equity.

    Against all aces and all PP pairs we have 69% equity

    Against all aces, all PP pairs, and KTcc and KJcc we hold at 69% equity,

    Against all aces, all PP pairs, all suited cons in clubs we have 71% equity

    Looks like its a call then.

    ah sorry, i struggle to take it in sometimes, expessially when everyone else is saying 3b or fold. I though i just got juiced on the implied odds.

    Although im not saying your wrong, the reasons you said obviously where partly the reasons i made the call, as well as the opponent ccbet folding alot of the time so i felt if i missed i could make a move.

    Ty i have stoved and results seem positive as long as i can make sure he doesnt do it purley with sets.

    ty beaneh :)

    I agree with hursto why call pre if u  even think fold postflop..

    I dont mind flatting pre but getting it in always on this flop. your win more then enough longterm. Clicking fold post flop would be criminal without 10000;s hands with villain
