possibly 66

[/ QUOTE ] seriously doubt it. Naked King is most likely.

I think 66 plays the same way, though. It should be considered- I think for most intents and purposes we're playing for a flush. Regardless, all the money is going in if we catch an ace or three, so the 66 possibility isn't critically important.

I'm still feeling something like KJ or even K10 here. But as you point out, all the money is going in with an A or 3.

I would just move allin after UTG raises. You don't have a lot of chips and are a small favorite against most hands that have just top pair. Looks like a very good time to gamble.

I concur. Get all the $$ in while you still have the chance.

I push here, you're probably a slight favorite and you definately have some FE.

It all depends on if this guy has the capacity to lay down a top pair hand like KQ. If this is a small buyin 10+1 you're very unlikely to get any of the fold equity that makes a push so profitable. Bad opponents are also more likely to pay you off if you hit, making a call better. In a $200 event I like it a lot more.

Though maybe pushing wouldn't be as scary as a comitting reraise to, say, 500. Any decent player sees that bet as an effective all in, but it looks scarier since it looks like you want a call.

You lead with it, Im not sure how abvious it is. What's obvious is that UTG is going broke this hand, win or lose. I like calling here and seeing what developes on the turn. If I get the feeling that someone is ready to go broke, I suggest trying to make a hand first and calling $115 to win the rest of his stack is the cheapest and some would say the safer way, or the weak way to play the hand, but i hate to get knocked out on a draw early a tournament when I could have just called a cheap bet and proceeded from there.
