Re: Play A Hand With The Triple Threat (Pre-Flop)
Raise to 60. I have no intention of being aggressive and trying to get people out of the pot. I want to keep the pot small and avoid risking a lot of my chips so early in the tournament.

I'll bite. Easy Raise, 4BB. If he re-raises I'd put him on AA or KK.

Raise, since this is a 10+1 and blinds are low compared to people's stacks, raise larger than normal, somewhere in range of 100-120, that seems big but I notice people will call larger bets earlier in tournaments.

[ QUOTE ] He's a Villain for limping? I bet 200, donkeys at the table will call (or raise) with any two. This is a prime opp. to double/triple up versus Ax. If they're all competent players, and I price them out of the hand, well, that sucks.

Max you want to raise here is 5x the bb. On stars I like a 4x bb raise as standard + 1x the bb for each limper (at least early on, later at 25/50 blinds it goes down to 3x+1x). So raise to 100. After that, play poker. [/ QUOTE ] At the 11s I play 3-4x BB raises in the first level are basically ignored. Doing that will still leave you with 3-4 opponents a lot. I like a larger raise 5-7x. Sometimes with AA or KK in the first level I'll put in a 10x raise and still get callers. |

Re: Play A Hand With The Triple Threat (Pre-Flop)
I raise to 120. Standard is obviously 80, but I think overbetting here is justified because there are tons of donkeys, there's already a limper who could easily get stubborn, and QQ is a nice hand to play a decent-sized pot with.
