27s...second guessing.
 

Villain is famously known Multitabler and uber tight early and utter pushbot late. On loose setting, this call is +.8 but i think that might be too conservative. What do you guys do here? absent this stark read I never make this call.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (6 handed) internettexasholdem.com

MP (t3940)
CO (t980)
Button (t4065)
SB (t2005)
Hero (t1305)
UTG (t1205)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t1205</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Hero...

He is raising UTG, this has nothing (OK, little) to do with pushbotting.

Re: 27s...second guessing.
 

What adanthar said. Easy call if he were SB. Possible call from button or even CO, but A9 should be a clear dog to his range from UTG.

I have played about 100 games with her and I know she gets frisky when she is about to lose her FE...I have her on a very wide range here (relative to a standard push from UTG)

But FWIW, I think you guys are probably right and the fact is, it was *I* who was feeling frisky.

Thx for the feedback.

Re: 27s...second guessing.
 

If you know in particular this player has a very wide range in this spot, it's different.

I haven't played near 100 against any one opponent and I can see how you can get some very specific reads after a while. It's very cool.

Re: 27s...second guessing.
 

If that's me UTG your A9 is a 70/30 dog at best.

Re: 27s...second guessing.
 

you need to respect postion. I feel that a rasie like that has your offsuited A,9 beat and you need to lay it down.

with that stack? about to be 700 at a stars tourney? you should open that up a bit...

she had 66, and I actually thought it couldve been much worse a hand because ive seen her raise push here...but anyway, thats why I posted it. I would normally autofold this.

This was 90% read based which is why I said I normally dont call here, and why I posted it. Was wondering if anyone adjusts THIS much based on so much prior info/data.

Re: 27s...second guessing.
 

I think it's close. I'd call with AJ, prolly AT, and with A9 like you said it is very read dependent. If the blinds are going up next hand I'm calling.
