Anyone Push Here - Commerce 10/20
 

New Table. We all just sat down - Lou Diamond is on my right (though that has nothing to do with the hand).

Folded to me in Hijack - I open for $100 w A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

Affable, but donkish guy in CO calls - All others go away.

Flop T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I bet $180

He makes it $480

We both have 2K.

Re: Anyone Push Here - Commerce 10/20
 

not if you like money. Are you leaving anything out? Like he is going to pay 2k with KTo?

Re: Anyone Push Here - Commerce 10/20
 

Well - That's the thing - It's results oriented post.

I called the $300 more, A non-heart Queen came on the turn, he made a big bet and I folded - He had QT.

But, yeah, I got the feeling he may have called a push.

i'd checkraise allin on turn.
all you online players can't fathom playing a huge pot w/just one pair, but in the commerce game this would be a good spot to do it.

although pushing flop isn't bad either.
neither is calling the raise then pushing the turn.
whatever way you think you'll get it all in.

unless of course you recognize your opponent as a regular, if he's one of the hundreds of donks who play that game you should start counting your money.

I just don't understand so maybe you can explain a bit more. Even if he'll raise with any ten or better, our hand does not stack up well.

One seat from the cutoff. Yes, online it's harder to fathom playing for one pair for a big stack because at about NL400 or more specifically NL600, most (not all) players aren't willing to stick it in with even an overpair. I'm dealing with a bunch of weak-tight nits.

Gosh, it's been oh so long since I've stacked someone with a set against someone else's overpair or TPTK online.

If the Commerce and other live games are so good that TPTK or an overpair is good like this, then maybe I should stop playing online 4-tables and look to playing live more often.

I look forward to returning to LA...
