Hand from $15+1 PP Tourney
I am posting this from work so I don't have the HH with me. I'll try to include all the necessary details.
Late in tourney, 1600 started, down to ~229, average chip stack around T5500, Hero has around T7700. Blinds 200/400. Folds to me in MP3 with K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Tight player in BB with about T10000, but (EXTREMELY) loose player in SB with around T12000. I raise to T1000, hoping of course to snatch the blinds, but not feeling terrible about my hand. Button calls, SB calls, BB calls (what a blunder of a blind steal =P). Flop comes 10 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB comes in for a raise of 500. Now, I described this guy earlier as loose. I mean really loose. I mean VPIP of 60, PFR of 18. I mean called an UTG allin from UTG+2 with T6o (naturally turned a full house). Very loose. BB calls, I raise to 2000 to chase away stuff like AJ with one diamond I suppose, and for value -- I certainly don't mind a hand like JT calling me. Folds to SB who minraises to 3500. BB folds, and I'm in a pickle. This guy has been so loose, I really have no idea where I'm at. He could easily have 43o here. At the same time, he could easily have T9o. Or a set. Or 56. I reraise allin, he calls. What do you think? |

i'll bump this a couple times today, if no one thinks its intersting, c'est la vie. i'm interested in my play here against someone i know to be very loose aggressive. also would like to get a couple replies before i post results.
its such a marginal situation that im sort of wracking my brain about it. |

Re: Hand from $15+1 PP Tourney
Given your read on him, I think going all-in is fine, since you want to punish him for any flush/straight draw he might be on. If you had more respect for his game you could give him more credit for a hand and it would be easier to bail.
The minraise to 3500 is odd. If he truly had a great hand, why not just go all-in at that point? You've already shown strength with the 2K reraise, and at that point if he has a set then he needs to make YOU pay for a flush draw. |

Re: Hand from $15+1 PP Tourney
I've seen this a few times from perceived weak players. They make really small or min bets into a big pot then min-reraise any raise. Can't say I have completely sussed it out as yet but as a rule it normally seems to show atleast some strength.
At the same time I think you've go too much invested here to throw it away considering the range of hands he could have. I play it the same way then sigh in disbelief as he turns over T3. |

I honestly think I should have interpreted his minraise of my 1500 raise as a hell of a lot of strength, and I missed it. I just had a really hard time giving him credit for a big hand. This is a leak -- I forget that bad players can get good cards. Anyone lay this down after his reraise? I am really thinking that might be the right play. I'm on the fence though. I know it's not a terribly interesting hand, but I think it's one that, because of the type of player he was, is at least worth discussion. I really hope this guy went on to win the tournament. The way he was getting hit with the deck, I think it was his day. |
