Re: Poll -- What is Hero\'s error in this $33 hand
Calling PF is an option, a better one may be folding PF give the size of the call in relation to your stacksize.
On the flop, you can muck or push. I prefer mucking, it seems MP1 has a legitimate hand. |

You were destined to go broke on that hand my friend. Any way you play it, you're going broke. At least I am.

This is a trick question.
The second you see the flop you are going broke so your only option is just not seeing a flop which is prolly -EV. |

[/ QUOTE ] Maulik are you saying if the stacks were DEEPER you'd be willing to play this a little farther (i.e. bet or call on the flop), but given the size of the stacks its either AI or fold on the flop, so you choose fold? |

The large bet in a multi-way hand indicates strength more so than a continuation bet. With deeper stacks, I could muck unimproved or depending on the texture of the flop. |

Re: Poll -- What is Hero\'s error in this $33 hand
FWIW I said Hero's mistake was calling the raise preflop, but I think it is marginal. It is a mult-way pot with a donk involved, reasons enough to call preflop with JJ.
Yes, with deeper stacks you could re-raise him on the flop and still get away form your hand. However, with t800 without a good read I think folding this flop is going cost you in the long run. |

Re: Poll -- What is Hero\'s error in this $33 hand
I think that your biggest error was getting dealt an underpair to the villain's kings. I'm going to guess that 90% of players go broke on this hand. IMO, not going broke means one of two things:
1) You're a world class player, or 2) You suck at poker. Especially since you were a little short (695) when the hand started, I just don't see that you have a deep enough stack to get away from this. |

Re: Poll -- What is Hero\'s error in this $33 hand
Maybe its just me but folding PF after you've limped with jacks seems way too weak tight. Just because someone raises a couple limpers doesn't mean they have QQ-AA, in fact, they probably don't have QQ-AA. I agree with 45suited, if you don't go broke you're either awful or one of the top players there are.
