DYM hands

thomas87

A couple of hands from £3.30 DYM's, just want to know if they were good calls. Haven't got any reads even tho 2 of the hands are against the same opponent but i was multi-tabling and all the hands happened over a short space of time.

Hi Thomas
Interesting hands. One thing you should be aware of in dym's are the stack sizes and number of players remaining. There is a calculation available which can even tell you to fold KK or AA in certain situations with micro stacks at the table as the top three get the same prize so there is no need to knock people out.
IMO, though all the stack sizes aren't shown, i would say:

1. Too early...fold
2. All-in pre or as played call and see flop. Bubble pos so depends on rel stack sizes of other two. May be a good argument to fold here.
3. Ok to call though as long as remaining stacks are pretty even
4. Fine considering he has < 6 bb's.

I'm sure its no coincidence that you are putting up pprs as they may be flipping or even dominated. Remember what is fine shoving may be marginal calling.I'm sure you will get a variety of answers here. In the main calling only does you or your opponent harm. The others will love it as they definitely benefit icm-wise. There is no standard really but Game Theory helps in places. Hope this helps in some ways. Getting an idea of how some players react and play will improve your success rate.

Hand 1: Deffo a fold! You've shown strength by 3betting so to then get 4bet shoved by some1 else who wasn't the orginal better is never going to end well when your holding JJ!

Hand 2: It's hard to say as your on the bubble and I can't see the stack sizes of the other 2 players. You look in a decent spot, so when he 3bets you I would just flat call as if your getting it all in and lose your down to 1500 and struggling from being on 3k with 4 left. If you don't flop a set then give up. 2600 chips is still plenty.

Hand 3 + 4 both right to call.

hand 1 is a clear fold

hand 2 looks like a fold but i can't see stack sizes

hands 3 + 4 are both fine

Thanks for your replys everyone.

Hand 1 - I aggree that it's a fold now lol

Hand 2 - Looking back at my HH it doesnt show the other stack sizes but im sure he was the short stack and everyone else had about 3-4K

Hands 3 and 4 - Glad i made some good calls
