ATo on button - Stars turbo nearing bubble time
Big blind's play has seemed reasonable so far - not particularly laggy or tight.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) converter MP (t1175) Hero (t2640) SB (t3780) BB (t2385) UTG (t3520) Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t600</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls t400. Flop: (t1300) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ??? |

Re: ATo on button - Stars turbo nearing bubble time
I hate pokerstars. Well I like it, but I hate how everyone plays back at you with sh*t, but lots of times not sh*t. W/e.
See now you're f*cked. Thats why I think all-in would be good. Checking could be good also, if not better. The only reason I wouldn't want to just bet out 800-900 is becuase there is a good chance of them playing back at you. |

Standard 1/2 pot cont bet and fold to a raise works well here, I think. |

Re: ATo on button - Stars turbo nearing bubble time
i would have played this exactly as you have so far. after the flop raise, i'd just muck. you have 7bb's enough to do some damage with, hell 1 double up and you're right back where you were. you're not ahead of the BB on this flop and you're probably not gonna catch him.

Re: ATo on button - Stars turbo nearing bubble time
So we frown upon an all-in here?

Re: ATo on button - Stars turbo nearing bubble time
Ya, I hate it when this happens. He could very easily have a lot of hands that have me beat at this point where an all in flop bet probably gets him to fold a lot of hands I'm behind.
I hate checking here, but in hindsight it might have been the best play. |
