Run away! Run away!

It sounds like set to me though; pocket pairs that can't let go.

Re: What\'s Your Action?
 

Hope you're kidding...what other kind of flop were you looking for, AAK?

Put them all in the middle, let the chips fall where they may at showdown, and if you lose, move on to the next one. Absolutely MUST go for it on this hand.

Seems pretty straight-forward to me. Of course, I may be wrong, wouldn't be the first time.

Re: What\'s Your Action?
 

Eh...if they're bad enough to go in with TPMK or a flush draw, then they're bad enough to call with K9o or something...personally I don't like pushing over two people who've shown strength with just TPTK.

Re: What\'s Your Action?
 

Hand #1 I think I'd push. You've got a decent shot at tripling up here. Looks like CO has KQ, KJ, or 99. SB could have anything from a flush draw, to K-x, to absolutely nothing.
My guesses on the hands are CO: K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] , SB T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ...if you ever post results. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Hand #2 I'd muck this, you're either in a race situation, or way behind. I can't, for the life of me, figure out what UTG would play like this, though. Seems like he'd push with Aces after SB went all-in, if he was trying to get tricky with AA. Perhaps he wants you along for the ride.

Hand Guesses: UTG - A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], SB - A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Re: What\'s Your Action?
 

I say push. You have high pair with high kicker. I don't see folding to the T500 bet. Calling is not an option IMO. With pre-flop bets, I see you up against possibly a flush draw and a medium pair. Gonna read the replies now. I wanted to put in my reply before I got swayed by anyone elses.

Re: What\'s Your Action?
 

Fold the jacks.

Re: What\'s Your Action?
 

The advice to push on the AK hand is a disgrace to this forum.

Re: What\'s Your Action?
 

I'm not real worried about the SB. His play sounds like KQ or KJ. I'm more concerned about the CO. Why would he risk so much if he can't already beat TP/TK? Unless you have some specific info that you're up against 2 complete idiots, fold. One pair is no good here most of the time.
