Re: KK hand
 

Due to the way hero played this hand, it's an easy easy call. And if he's behind a set, then he needs to suckout. I think the advantage to winning this pot, vs the odds of winning the damn thing by folding here is good enough.

Re: KK hand
 

i posted the same above, that with that much in i would probably call... doesn't mean i think i'm ahead most of the time though

Re-raise more preflop next time. Here you probably have to call because of having so much committed.

That basically sums up my thought process during the hand. As soon as I typed in the raise I knew it was not enough...the damn min raiser screwed me up. Why do people min raise UTG, especially since he had K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]??? I don't get it. Anyway I could not fold even though I was drawing slim, another guy had a worse flush draw (45) and winner winner chicken dinner was 222. No suckouts, this time. In a cash game this may be a call, but I think maybe I should have folded. Chip and a chair kinda thing.


Just for for fun, the QQ laydown I alluded to in OP. SnG just started and Blinds are 10/15...
UTG raises to 225
UTG+1 coldcalls (at which point I consider calling for set value)
MP1 pushes (at which point I consider folding)
MP2 pushes (at which point my decision becomes easy, I think)
Hero folds, relatively quickly
UTG calls
UTG+1 folds
KK (MP2) holds up over 99 (UTG) and AKo (MP1) (no queens on the board)

I just push the flop. In a 22 they will assume I have AK and call with bottom pair. If I'm beat so be it.
