Getting aggro in a $50
No strong read on villain, he'd been playing at least somewhat tight (we're only 20 hands in).
I'd been playing quite tight. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) converter MP2 (t1795) CO (t855) Hero (t1305) SB (t695) BB (t1548) UTG (t1617) UTG+1 (t935) MP1 (t1250) Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t150</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB (thinks for about 8 seconds and) calls t100. Flop: (t325) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">BB bets t400</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero is all in (t1155)</font> It was clear that he wanted me out of the pot and was uneasy about his hand (77/JT maybe). So it logically follows that I push. All good? Everett |

I think you're getting carried away here. You might be right, but I'd fold on the flop.

Re: Getting aggro in a $50
I think he'll call with any jack or flush draw.

Re: Getting aggro in a $50
problen is that you do not have enough chips to push him out if he is on a drawing hand.

Re: Getting aggro in a $50
I'll elaborate. A bet that is larger than the size of the pot is often protecting a vulnerable hand. I think a bet of this size is unlikely to be a probe bet. AJ is my best guess.

Re: Getting aggro in a $50
I fold here. He is going to call your all-in.

And since most players aren't the type to make strong probe bets like this, 77ish hands can be somewhat discounted. An unfoldable A-high diamond draw is also possible but there are far fewer combos of that than one pair hands. Perhaps 1200 isn't enough to convince him to fold a non-premium jack. What if we'd both had 1800ish chips on the flop instead of 1200? I think in that case he can get away from almost all of his possible holdings save AJ. Everett P.S.

Re: Getting aggro in a $50
First read i thought the flop was three diamonds and I thought everyone was crazy talking through this hand - easy push with a likely 15 clean outs and 1.28-1 assuming I'm called.
Finally caught that it was only a flopped threeflush. I think you're up against a jack or a fourflush with this overbet and I'm going to fold the flop. |
