I ended the limpfest. What now?
 

No real read on the BB. Button is has played like a total LAG and picked up a few nice pots.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed)

MP2 (t1895)
CO (t1780)
Button (t3080)
Hero (t1355)
BB (t1200)
UTG (t2175)
UTG+1 (t1000)
MP1 (t1015)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Qh, Qd
UTG+1 calls t50, , MP2 calls t50, 1 fold, Button calls t50, Hero raises to t500, BB raises to t1200, UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds, Button raises to t3080 ...

Hero ?????

hrm, if you put them on exactly AA-QQ, you have 13% equity, 16% if they can't have QQ. i think you call.

on another note, i think i make my raise less here preflop.

citanul

edit: what buyin is this?

Re: I ended the limpfest. What now?
 

You raised 40% of your stack with QQ and want to fold it against one player?

Re: I ended the limpfest. What now?
 

two players.

Re: I ended the limpfest. What now?
 

Two players. That's why it's scary. Raised to 1200 and then an all-in from the Button for 3000.

Folds. I also really don't like the PF raise to 500. I would've been more like 2x-3x BB 100-150. More than likely, your PF bet of 500 has caused the all in action from the other players. Look for AA and AK in their hands with AA winning.

naw, i think AK will win in this example. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Holy, weakies...Button is a LAG, so he probably has AK or worse, and the other player could easily have 99-JJ just as often as he has AA/KK, which is still less than the times he'll have AK/AQ...

I say it's an easy call, especially since you've put in 40 percent of your stack already, which I don't have a problem with, unless you fold here

I agree that raising to 500 is excessive, but raising 2 or 3x the BB is too small considering the size of the pot with all the limpers. I would have made it 300 to go.

Considering the size of the pot and your read on the button as a total LAG, you have to call this.

Only if I am the player holding AA
