the ub 50/100 game
hey i am takeover in this game. this is a hand i got involved in against a guy called fanto. he is pretty wild sometimes. we were head ups and i am in the big blind. i had about 28K. he had about 13K.
He raises and I call with 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Flop 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Chk and call his pot bet Turn 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] I go all-in, making it look like a bluff. Thoughts? |

Re: the ub 50/100 game
Because of this huge overbet (assuming the previous bets/raises was about pot size) I dont think he will call with a 9.

[/ QUOTE ] I think the question is, would you, or had you at some point in this match made a similar play as a bluff? Does your villian have any indication that you will overbet bluff in similar spots? blake |

Re: the ub 50/100 game
I like the push there. It seems like a bluff. I generally dont like check raising with a big hand like that. I think leading is better, i tend to check raise to move people off hands not to portray bluffs....

Re: the ub 50/100 game
why not try to checkraise all in on the turn if you're looking to portray that massive bluff? I mean, you've got a pretty good hand, I'd imagine you might have some pretty high fold equity at this point, but no matter what, I'd want to try to get a little more money in the pot before doing this. There's probably 1.4kish in the pot, so right now this seems like a pretty huge overbet. If you check, he pots it again, then at least there's 3.8kish in the pot and it's still a nice sized overbet (he's still got to call around 11kish).
If he checks the turn, maybe push the river cause people love calling rivers looking to pick off bluffs. |

Off topic but congrats Nick on the WPT win, way to represent for Ace Point!!!!!!!!!
I have never played anything close to 50/100 so I won't entertain saying if it's a good play or not. But I can say I started using this play with a big hand watching the 50/100 game and realizing guys were doing this with big hands and getting called. |

Thoughts? [/ QUOTE ] Hey Nick. You play good. I think this is fine, assuming that sometimes you'll make a similar bet as a semi-bluff w/ spades or 78, and also that Fanto potting the flop means he has *something* he might talk himself into calling w/ more often than he's got QJo . . . Dunno though, this is such a big bet, he might even be able to give you 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]x[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and get away from a real hand.
