Ok, let me have it.....
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) Button (t1230) SB (t1110) BB (t1330) UTG (t1850) UTG+1 (t1480) MP1 (t1070) MP2 (t1760) Hero (t1270) CO (t2400) Preflop: Hero is MP3 with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls t30, MP2 folds, Hero calls t30, <font color="CC3333">CO raises to t180</font>, Button folds, SB folds, BB folds, MP1 calls t150, Hero calls t150. Flop: (t585) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font> MP1 checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets t120</font>, CO calls t120, MP1 calls t120. Turn: (t945) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font> MP1 checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets t330</font>, CO folds, MP1 folds. Final Pot: t1275 <font color="green">Main Pot: t945 (t945), won by Hero.</font> <font color="green">Pot 2: t330 (t330), returned to Hero.</font> Results in white below: <font color="white"> No showdown. Hero wins t1275. </font> Even though it was still fairly early in the tourny (Level 2) I had seen the CO make a few questionable plays. He had made a 6 x BB preflop raise with Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] a few hands earlier, and had tried to bully a couple of other players off a pot in another. Well that's my excuse anyway, and I'm sticking to it. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] Would anybody play this hand differently? If so, why? Husker |

Re: Ok, let me have it.....
I wouldn't have played it at all. The limp is questionnable, and calling the CO raise is a definate no for me, regardless that he did it a few hands ago with Q6s.
This is very similar to this thread. Hands like lead you in to serious trouble when you hit a pair. Your out of position, you've got kicker trouble, you don't know where you stand. Just fold it preflop - especially to such a large raise - and wait for a better time to take the bluffers money. I won't comment on the later betting rounds because I'd try never to get in this situation. |

I'm actually waiting for ddubois to rip me a new one because I gave him a hard time with his play in a similiar situation.(suited connectors vs preflop raiser with position) I agree, it was a stupid play to call the addition t150. I also agree it was questionable to throw out more chips on the flop. I should put more emphasis in following the whole "people that live in glass houses...." adage. Nuff said. Husker |

Oops. You know the one I'm talking about.
For others, this is what I meant. |

Re: Ok, let me have it.....
I don't know how relevant this is, but one difference between our situations is that a PFRer is signifigantly more likely to have a Q than a T. On the other hand, a PFR is slightly more likely to have an overpair to a T than a Q. I don't know if that makes your hand stronger (but more vulnerable to draws to overs of course), or is an inconsequential factoid.

I wouldn't have called the pre-flop raise. Weak flop bet, I would have made it about 300, rest was fine IMO.

Hmmm. If he proved himself to be a maniac it's still questionable. I would lay low and wait or him ot get really deep into me with a monster.
