Fearless or reckless? Thoughts on a push for all my chips
1-2NL live NYC
Effective stacks 700 Although hero covers. Hero is MP picks up AJoff Raises to 22 standard Villian on the button cold calls Villian is a lagish player with good postflop game He respects me although he considers me a rock Flop is A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (pot 47) I lead out for 35 Villian cold calls Turn is a 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (pot 117) I lead out for 50 Villan raises me to 150 straight (317 pot) I push. Thoughts? Is this reckless? I was 90% he had no spade. I also know he is likely to raise me with less than an Ace. He had 400+ so it's def a tough call with anything but the nutz.... |

He has to fold 2/3 of the time for you to show a profit from this play.
According to your reads, he doesn't even have you beat 2/3 of the time, so any fold you get from a better hand is pure gravy. |

How could you even know he has no spades? Anyway, I can't really imagine what the point here is, you have a read that you're winning, you push. Ok. Next hand.

Re: Fearless or reckless? Thoughts on a push for all my chips
I guess the question is, against a player who checkraises a lot with little and calls a lot with monster (typical weak strong strong weak) and could be on avast array of hands, Is pushing here reckless if you assume he folds more often than not. It would be much easier if i had the J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] but that wasnt the case.

Ok and I guess my point is I don't understand your question. You say he doesn't necessarily have an A and definitely doesn't have a spade. I just don't get it.

No i say he is capable of doing this without an A. I actually believed he was on AQ or AJ range. I said he is capable of making this play with nothing. And i suspect he is weaker than his check raise shows.

What "reckless"? You aren't semibluffing. If called, you're drawing dead.
Your play is either profitable, or it's not. If "folds more often than not" means "folds twice as often", then profitable. Otherwise, not. |
