lost post-flop on the bubble
One of those wierd situations where I actually had to play a bubble hand post-flop. I'm now thinking I should've just abandoned this hand when my steal failed and I missed the flop.
I had been very active in this game and my stack had gone up and down a lot. BB was fairly loose and aggressive. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney (20+2), Big Blind is t100 (4 handed) converter Button (t1490) Hero (t1630) BB (t2740) UTG (t2140) Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t325</font>, BB calls t225. Flop: (t650) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t325</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises t2415 (All-in)</font>, Hero folds. Final Pot: t975 |

Re: lost post-flop on the bubble
Yeah, I would be in check fold mode with that flop as he showed he obvoisuly has a decent hand to call your raise with.

Re: lost post-flop on the bubble
If BB is loose then I don't like the flop bet. I'd rather keep the chips for future folding equity.

Re: lost post-flop on the bubble
I'll go against the grain on this, and say that your continuation bet here is pretty standard. You're betting t325 to win t650, so it only has to work out 1/2 the time to be EV neutral. And given the PF looseness of the Party crowd, it's going to work out far more than half the time.
BB may also just be f-ing with you on a re-steal. The worse his cards, the more I like his play. Sam |

Re: lost post-flop on the bubble
I bet the flop, they fold way too often. It's very rare that you should dog it after raising preflop in the low limit sit and gos on partypoker. They fold well over 50% of the time in most cases, and of course with your bet you don't even need them to fold nearly this often. Also I have a habit where I like to always bet slightly more than I raised preflop, so I'd make it 350 - 400 on the flop, although this isn't necessary. I just feel like it looks weak to make the same exact bet, although it's probably giving my opponents too much credit to think like that. Also I'd usually raise less preflop (250-300), although this isnt a big deal. |

Re: lost post-flop on the bubble
yeah, i definitely don't check fold the flop
my line would be... raise to 275 preflop, bet 60 percent of the pot or so on the flop, fold to a reraise you don't leave your children out in the street- he can't call you unless he has a decent hand there, kings, set etc, and when he reraises you're done with it- but you absolutely have to take a stab at it. if you check/fold you could be dropping to QJ or JT or some crap just cause you looked so weak. |
