Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)
Button (t3312)
SB (t2385)
BB (t2310)
HERO (t1993)
Preflop:
<font color="#CC3333">HERO raises to t400</font>, Button calls t400, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.
Flop: (t1025) 7/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
HERO checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets t2200</font>, UTGA folds.
Final Pot: t3225
This was a $55 and blinds are going up in 2 hands. I probaly should of just pushed preflop but I had (X14BB) on the bubble. No reads on the villian as we just got to the bubble and I've been 4 tabling. Seems kind of weak-tight to check/fold the flop, but then again it is the bubble and the villian is not laying down the ace. Seems like the correct line is either check/fold, or check/call, as a contuation bet would leave me short-stacked. Only problem is if I check/fold here im going to be shortstacked and getting bullied and probaly busting out on the bubble anyways. That's why I think check/calling may be a better line as if the villian doesn't have an ace (he is a big stack so if he is a good player he'd be bulling). I'll be the big stack and still playing for first. Also would villian really push an ace here (probaly yes?)?
