Deep stack situation in 50NL
 

SB is a pretty big LAG, BB seems fairly tight and aggressive. My problem with this hand is that I called the flop bet planning to push on the turn but then his turn bet screamed to me that I was beat. Does the fact that the table is somewhat deep stacked change the way you play this hand?

The way I play this has nothing to do with deepstacks, I push...his play is exactly how AK would play

Re: Deep stack situation in 50NL
 

hero pushes.

he's look like Kx here.

he'd most like would rr KK pf and if he's got the overset with 88 then he can have my stack.

You're not nearly deep enough to fold here. Get it all in.

Easy all-in.

These aren't really deep stacks. If you put money in on the turn, your stack is committed. Now if you each had, say $400 left, then it gets more interesting.

Thanks for the replies. Any thoughts on how stacked you and villain would have to be to make a fold plausible? 5 buy-ins? 6? I'm assuming most would still call and see what he does on the river then start entertaining the thought of folding if he pushes.

stacks make no difference here imo...Whatever stack there is, I raise this turn. If I have alot of money, I raise something proportional to the pot. If I don't have alot of money, I raise whatever I have left.

Nope. Decide if you hand is best right now. If you think it is then go to showdown. If you think it is not then fold now. Dont call then fold on the river. Assume the villian is going to move in on river before you make the turn call.

Calling then folding the river is probably the worst move here. You are better off folding it now or going all the way with it.

Agreed. The only hand you should really be worried about here is 88 or an interestingly played KK. You are not deep enough to consider folding.
