Re: $33 - Can I get away from this overpair.
[ QUOTE ]
I'm raising here every time barring some extremely strange read [/ QUOTE ] How much? Pushing seems excessive, and a loose bigstack is quite likely to call any raise I make, and I am still lost on the flop... Would you also raise 9's? 4's? |
Re: $33 - Can I get away from this overpair.
I might raise 99. 44 no way. 88 probably no way as well. But those are all closer than TT.
How much? I think I'd do t175 or t225. Maybe the former for pot control reasons, but I don't honestly think it matters that much. |
Re: $33 - Can I get away from this overpair.
I would have raised to 250 preflop. I think it's easier then to know where you stand.

I think you have a better chance of stealing/doubling your way to the money then winning this hand. [/ QUOTE ] I think this is a good way of looking at things. Scuba, would you then fold to a push? |

UTG has been really quite loose and has been showing down rubbish like Q7o. [/ QUOTE ] Ok, there's 125 in the pot and you have 765 behind preflop. You rate to be ahead. There's no need to make this hand complicated. Irieguy |

And everybody seems to have good points. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] You're suggesting I just push? (I don't think anyone has said fold preflop yet..) |

I always struggle with what to do with TT in this type of situation pre-flop. Obviously in an MTT I'm raising. But here, in level 3 of an SNG, I am still thinking about getting to level 4 and 5 where I can start stealing and surviving to the bubble. So often I call, hoping to minimize my investment and just play some poker post-flop. Sounds like most of you think that is a poor approach? [/ QUOTE ] I get the whole 'stealing on the bubble thing', but why does this concept have to make us play like total pansies pre-bubble? I'm raising this pre-flop exactly 100% of the time with our stack size. And since UTG is loose, I like pushing pre-flop alot here. It's 7 handed for crying out loud, and there's one other guy in the pot when it gets to us pre-flop. Push those 10s, and watch someone call you quite frequently with a lower PP. |
