Re: $109s - Level 4 PVS
This is an impossible question to give a correct answer too, very opponent and situation dependant. By this point in the tourney you should be able to have a really good idea how often you get called here. To make a push correct you need a LOT of folding equity though since your hand will rarely win in a showdown.
I see limp calls from A-9o and K-10 too much to do this. |

Re: $109s - Level 4 PVS
This would depend entirely on the CO, wouldn't it?
What do you know about him already? If you know nothing, I guess you can get ready to put one of the two down in your notes: level 4: limp/calls from CO with t1425 level 4: limp/fold to t840 BB with a t1425 stack Also, what about just betting out most flops instead? Luminous |

Re: $109s - Level 4 PVS
I don't like it unless you have a good read. You aren't desperate for chips with 8.5BB, and open-limping in late position is something people often seem to do with monsters. On the plus side, CO's stack makes it somewhat less likely for him to call. Unless CO is a habitual limp-folder, I don't see any reason to make this play, and I think you're getting called here far too much for it to be profitable.

Very bad play. your in the BB so your bluff is less believable. Why not incorporate a little patience into your game and wait to reraise where you actually have a better hand.

Re: $109s - Level 4 PVS
This used to be a slightly decent move to do *once in a while* before the 75/150 limit.
These days, you've got more room and everybody and their mother is calling these with trash, so why bother? |

Re: $109s - Level 4 PVS
I have no reads except that Lucy Liu has a tight body. (GF was watching Charlie's Angels)
There's 250 in the pot, I have 840. CO has 14BB. I really don't think I need a read here. BTW, if this is not a good spot for a PVS, then the PVS is dead, and that makes me sad. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

So there's two opposing forces there IMO. |
