Now that I get ABC poker quite well, I've been getting myself into a few marginal spots, mainly from the blinds, button & co.
I'll be posting a few of those, commenting my play. Let's see what you guys think...
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (8 handed)
converter
Button (t1820)
Hero (t1215)
BB (t1065)
UTG (t690)
UTG+1 (t1410)
MP1 (t525)
MP2 (t650)
CO (t625)
Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

4 folds</font>, CO calls t100, Button calls t100, Hero completes, BB checks.
<font color="green">If the BB doesn't try anything fancy, I'm getting 7 to 1, so it's more than enough to limp and take a look at a flop.</font>
Flop: (t400) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="green">Good looking flop for me. I don't feel like betting out against 3 opponents, though. My main concerns are a flopped straight, set or someone w/ a 4-flush and/or OESD. With all these players in the pot, I don't think any of the hands that have me beat are going to slowplay or underbet the pot in this spot, so I'm going over the top of anyone that bets less than 200 here.</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, CO checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets t125</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1115 (All-In)</font>
