Horribly misplayed set of tens
Stars $11, first hand of the tournament. Only just moved up from $5.50 (this is from my 3rd $11) so I have even less of a potential read on my opponents.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) http://216.119.70.224/converter/hhconverter.pl Button (t1500) SB (t1500) BB (t1500) UTG (t1500) UTG+1 (t1500) MP1 (t1500) MP2 (t1500) Hero (t1500) CO (t1500) Preflop: Hero is MP3 with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG calls t20, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t80</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, UTG calls t60. Flop: (t190) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t100</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t400</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t700</font>, Hero calls t300. Turn: (t1590) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t700</font>, Hero folds. Final Pot: t2290 If villain has flopped any pair, two pair or a set, he's surely going to be throwing in more than 100 into a 190 pot with that flop. If he flopped the straight, surely he checks or bets less than a hundred, to guarantee some action? It feels like he wants to see another card as cheaply as possible, I put him on a straight draw and think my set is good. Am I raising enough here? He comes over the top, but for the minimum amount. Now it feels like I'm being trapped. Should my options at this point be push or fold? I decide to call and then push the turn if the board doesn't get any scarier - which unfortunatley it does. Oh well, there goes half my stack on the first hand. Please be gentle. |

Re: Horribly misplayed set of tens
I would have called because...
1. Its an 11 2. He could be betting with anything not just draws or 2 pairs 3. you can still draw out on him at the river. Just me. I would have also moved allin after the flop. |

Re: Horribly misplayed set of tens
Why did you call the flop? Push over the top.
This is the 2nd worse played have I have ever witnessed, however I did something equally ridiculous. You are thinking way too hard, this is an 11 dollar tournament. He bet 100 into a 190 pot, which he is probably tryiing to figure out where he is and you re-raised him (correctly) on a dangerous board with a powerful hand. He re-raised you. He does not have you beat unless he bet out with a straight (which he limped UTG and called a raise with j9/96?). Protect your hand and push here. You are pot stuck on the turn, and if he has a 9 you have 10 outs to a boat/quads but I'd be willing to bet he is some donk with 87s and he flopped two pair. Welcome to the board. |

Re: Horribly misplayed set of tens
Push the flop and you have to call that turn.

Re: Horribly misplayed set of tens
Thanks for the feedback so far. For those saying "push the flop", presumably you mean after the re-re-raise, not the initial 100?

Re: Horribly misplayed set of tens
This is probably the worst laydown I have ever seen...you have TEN outs to a boat, you are pot committed, and you have 3-1 odds to call...
You have to push this flop and if you don't you NEED to call the turn. |
