Calling the all-in was correct.

I think in the CO position though, I raise 99 here. You have to make both of those marginal hands pay to play with you. Although at this point of an tourney, it might not have mattered anyway.

Looks fine.. I like the flop raise with the drawy board. Also this early in the tourney I just call preflop to try to hit a favorable flop.

I would go broke here 100% of the time.

Note: I don't know if it matters or not, but I actually reraised all in, I had both stacks covered.

Is there a case for just calling the SB's check-reraise? I put the EP on a J, and when the SB check-reraised me I did think he could have the straight.

ZBT, you mean reraise 99 preflop?

I disagree with the other posters, once you raise, get 2 callers and then a re-raise all-in and a few callers...i'm not so sure my set is holding up on a coordinated board.

ZBTHorton · #7 03-24-2005, 01:03 PM

Your right it's not holding up at this point...but you have 7 outs on the turn and 10 outs on the river and your getting proper odds.

Yes. I may raise 99 in this late of position.

Well, EP bet out for 60. I raised to 275. Caller, then the SB reraises to 600. He didn't push, he was the shortest with about 350 left. EP called.

Like I said I put EP on a draw. After SB check-raised my reraise I thought he probably had the baby straight, but wasn't completely sure. He could have a strong draw. The fact that he didn't push was fishy to me, as if he wanted me to call.

I didn't really contemplate folding, but how else would you have played it?

Raise ok.. but would you reraise a small raise from EP (shorter than you). If so how much.
