Call me Fishy--My first Pstars $11 rebuy in action
So everyone keeps talking about this rebuy tourny. Today I finally decided to play in one.
After getting to 10k at the first break I felt fine. I busted a short stack and moved to 14k, and then this hand came up. I was dealt 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in the CO. It was folded to me, so I decided to raise and take the blinds. My table had been fairly tight, so I figured I'd win the blinds more often than not. With blinds 100/200, and an ante of 25, I raised to 800. The BB min raised me back. I decide to take the flop, knowing that: 1) he priced me in 2) I have good implied odds if I hit Flop: J95, two diamonds. He bets slightly less than the pot. I decide that at this point I am behind, but again, I had been priced in. He didn't make a huge bet, and we had equal stacks so I had a lot of implied odds. Turn came the offsuit 7. This time, he bet large, overbetting the pot. I pushed, he thought, and called with KK. River was a blank, now I'm at 27k. Fishy? Probably. I'm ready to blow the rest of it with more fishy plays. I really like the way the tourny's are run here, much better than party. |

I think you're molding your logic on the hand based on the results, you had plenty of chips, and should have mucked that to the min re-raise. People talk all the time in these forums how that almost always seems to be Kings or Aces. He may be pricing you in, but I want something better than that to call with. |

I just watched him move in with KT and get called by KK. Happens I guess.

A little fishy on the flop - you say he priced you in but you are only getting 2:1 on the flop for maybe 5 outs (and the 7 of diamonds doesn't exactly thrill you) plus the nearly irrelevant runner runner straight possibilities.

I agree, borderline fishy. I really placed him on an overpair at that point, and figured I had the implied odds to chase--which I think I did. At worst, slightly negative EV.

I think calling the preflop min-raise is fine, if for no other reason than folding to it is going to invite alot more of them with hands much worse than KK. However, bearing in mind that this raise *probably* means AA/KK, I think you should fold that flop with 2nd pair/no kicker/no draw. I can't imagine you are getting odds to call on your 5-outer, against which he certainly has redraws, if he bets just "slightly less" than the pot.
I like it better if you were planning to make a move if a 3rd diamond hit and you thought that this was a player who could lay down an overpair in that situation. |
