Two NL $500 hands
$500 Live NL
Blinds are $5/10
Hand 1
8 Handed
Stacks:
CO: $1800
Button: $600
Hero: $1700
Table:
The table has been mostly loose, passive preflop; very aggressive postflop.
Reads:
CO is a very good, solid tournament pro, but he's playing this cash game like it is a tourney.
Button is super loose, super aggressive, super tricky.
Hero is in the SB with 63o
Preflop: UTG folds, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO calls, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks.
Flop: K54 rainbow (5 players)
Pot: $50
Hero donks it for $20, BB folds, MP1 folds, CO calls, Button raises to $120, Hero calls, CO raises to $220, Button pushes all-in $460, Hero ... ?
<font color="blue">The only hand that I know neither have is KK. Button would make this move with any set, any two pair, or an open ended straight draw. CO has at least two pair. I am positive that if I am continuing with this hand, CO will ensure that all of the chips will be in the pot on the flop.</font>
