Default Re: 2+2 SnG report

Down to 4

blinds 400/800 with 25 ante

debaser (2107) on the SB, blindpanic (9705 in chips) BB, I get Jh 9h UTG (2945)
, DrPhysic(12243 in chips) on the button.


Not exactly premium, but blindpanic has been just sitting back. Doc has just made himself big stack by taking out William and I have noticed he sits back a bit for a few hands after a big win [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. Debaser is not so small he should be too desperate, so I figure I might steal here.

I 3 bet to 1200, just less than half my stack, maybe I should be moving in here. But personally I find people are far more willing to call someone who is all in.
I think the thing I don't like about pushing in with a steal is that it almost certainly isn't going to be done with AA KK or QQ. and probably not JJ or TT at this stage. So people with low PP seem to feel much more tempted to call.

If blindpanic reraises I would fold, because he is passive and def. too weak.
If Doc had reraised me allin I would be in a tough situation, I think I would have put him on a steal.
debaser I would as you will see call. I have him covered (just) and i just have feeling he would be putting me on a complete steal - stupid I know, but there you go.

debaser raises me all in, I call and he shows AK. I hit a 9 to keep me in and debaser out.

Just looking for some thoughts really. Should I have called? is this a compulsory call for me? should I have just pushed in straight off?


thanks

Tim
