25-50 NL Hand
I'm new to no-limit and wondering if I just donked away my stack on this one.
I have 6k and have both players have about 5k. I have been the most active player at my table by far opening with all kinds of crap and stabbing at all the small pots. I have won a few nice pots. Six max table. Button open limps, I complete in the SB w/ K8o. BB checks. Flop Kh-8h-6s. I bet the pot. BB calls. Button mini-raises. I raise the pot again and the bb folds and the button pushes after about a 5 second think. I call. The combination of the button open limping and making that weird mini-raise in a 3 way pot made me think that he could have hands other than a set. Do people really open limp 66, 88, or KK there very often? At the time, I thought my call with top two here was pretty routine. I didn't really consider folding. Is that wrong? Am I going to be paying off a set almost everytime here? Hands I thought this guy could have: lower two pair, AA, flush draw and/or straight draw, etc Thoughts? The button open limps, I complete in the SB with K8o. |
Re: 25-50 NL Hand
I woulnd't lose sleep over it with stacks 100bb deep+ your LAG image.
you must be a rich man though, to play 25-50nl being new to NL |
Re: 25-50 NL Hand
i think you will see AA here far more often than KK/88/66 given your description of the current table dynamics.

Re: 25-50 NL Hand
I'm usually a folding station and would probably be pretty happy to get all-in here. It does look a lot like a 66 but KK is very unlikely and he can only have 1 combo of 88. There's both straight and flush draws out there for hands that might limp on the button and given your image he could be "stringing you along" with a much weaker hand. Also the mini-raise could be a draw trying to take control of the hand and possibly get a free card. It does suck to lose 100+ bb's in an unraised pot but I don't think you lose much here in the long run. If you do manage to fold top 2 against a set that's money you made because you'll probably get paid off anytime the situation's reversed

JV,
Easy call and good re-pot on the flop. |

Re: 25-50 NL Hand
I could imagine folding bottom two here, but I don't think I could ever fold top two.

AZK,
FWIW, I think he will see Axh, 57, 79, and the like more than AA. |
Re: 25-50 NL Hand
El D,
I originally thought the same, but the minraise made me think those hands were less likely. |
Re: 25-50 NL Hand
i think they are PLENTY likely

Re: 25-50 NL Hand
Basically your concern of donking away your stack has been alleviated by the fact that all of the players agree that you should call.
I would be weary in this spot but I probably end up calling here too. I would not be thrilled by the call, but I also wouldn't think it was the worst thing ever either. |
Re: 25-50 NL Hand
why? most of those hands are looking for an all or none move, aka the anti-minraise.

Re: 25-50 NL Hand
raise for free card/fequity on turn.
