Late action line check (22s)
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100
Hero (t1300) CO (t530) Button (t1660) SB (t940) BB (t1980) UTG (t1590) Preflop: Hero is MP with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t350</font>, CO calls t530 (All-In), <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t780</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero... Button seemed to be a decent player. I have AKo and it's reraised twice after me... Can I respect Button here and lay it down, or do I have to go for it? If I push and miss, I'm out; if I fold I have an okay stack but I've created a fourth large stack. I think now it was too early to worry about the stacks I'd be creating, though. |

With all that money in the middle and discounting CO's hand since he's the shorty, I shove here.

Re: Late action line check (22s)
So crap that button could re-raise like that, but anyway, I'd raise less pf personally, but no way you can fold here, IMHO.

Re: Late action line check (22s)
I think you need to shove. Theres so much money out there with shorty all in.

Re: Late action line check (22s)
This looks like the Button is hoping you will re-raise him all-in. He is certainly not trying to isolate the CO. I would probably oblige him and push, but would expect to see AA - JJ, AK, and maybe AQ, TT, but I suspect these last are wishful thinking.

Re: Late action line check (22s)
I have to say, I was prety surprised that nobody said, "any decent player has Queens or better here; fold."
Then I ran the numbers, and even if opponent's range is QQ+, I'm only a 2.33:1 dog (to Button). Obviously, I'm in better shape if his range includes AK. Overall in the hand, I'm a 3:1 dog if shorty holds any ace, king, or queen and Button has QQ+. If I expand Button to include AK, then I'm nearly 2.6:1. So this is more marginal than I thought. Am I wrong in assuming that a decent player on the button is only behaving this way with a range like {QQ+,AK}? I certainly would fold anything less against two opponents. Would I be wrong to fold JJ in Button's position (against, say, one random 22'er and one reasonable 22'er)? |
