Revenge of the fish
Quick sanity check. I thought that I had just enough chips to make this play (and of course, I needed the chips). Nothing special about SB to speak of in the way of reads.
This guy used his entire time bank before calling here... with A9s. He got lucky and I didn't suck out. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] Everyone make this play? Seat 3 is the button Total number of players : 6 Seat 1: dapnecov ( $1170 ) Seat 2: z28cam87 ( $1980 ) Seat 3: karigu ( $2456 ) Seat 5: scooter10111 ( $1080 ) Seat 7: HERO ( $735 ) Seat 9: Drsand ( $579 ) Blinds(75/150) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to HERO [ 7c Jd ] Drsand folds. dapnecov folds. z28cam87 folds. karigu folds. scooter10111 calls [75]. HERO is all-In [585] scooter10111 calls [585]. |

Re: Revenge of the fish
I dont see anything wrong with this. You had enough chips for sure...he is left virtually crippled if he loses which is the bottom line if you put yourself in villain's shoes.
he is getting what? 1.6-1? He called the BB? 6 left and you're the shortie? He still has hope, and unless he's trapping its an easy push... FWIW...I hate villain's line unless he thought he was trapping with A9 which apparently wasnt the case since he went in the tank. |

Dude wasn't trapping (not that I would trap there either, I'd insta-push if I were him). And he wasn't multi-tabling - this was the first time that he had used his timebank. He called with literally 1 second left. Oh well... |

This is really bad on his part but it doesnt take away from the fact that you still have to push here close to always, barring a read...i.e. a maniac-100% PF raiser who decides to call...even then lol |

I love playing against bad players... The occassional hand such as this one is more than compensated for by the many where I benefit from their stupidity.

Re: Revenge of the fish
if he's the kind of guy who will open complete the small blind, he's playing passively. with a hand like that, i say just check and bet the flop when he checks to you.
people like to convince themselves to call pushes preflop, but on the flop is a different story. nothing really wrong with your play either, mostly just bad timing. |

Re: Revenge of the fish
I do this all the time. What you are doing by pushing is taking away his FE on the flop. Too bad he woke up with a hand this time.
