Re: TPTK facing a Post Flop Min-Raise
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Villain in the hand is a LAG who could be holding anything from a set to ace high. A couple of orbits earlier I laid down AK to a limp re-raise [/ QUOTE ] Everyone who wants to fold needs their head examined. [/ QUOTE ] If you wish to convert others to your POV, questioning their mental faculties is not a good beginning. Why should I feel pot-committed at this point? Exactly why am I putting my tournament on the line at such an early point with so little to gain? |

"Pot commited" has ZERO to do with how he should be playing this hand back at a flop min-raise. FWIW, call and auto-push the turn. That's my vote. |

That's my vote. [/ QUOTE ] If he's pot committed, it's better to push in here. If he's not, there's some room for maneuvering and laying down this hand (though that's probably not the best play here against a LAG). Calling and seeing what happens if a King comes off is another option too. |

Why should I feel pot-committed at this point? [/ QUOTE ] It is not just a matter of feeling pot commited. Regardless of how you got to this point in the hand, you have to look at the decision at hand. At this point you have a 4-1 call with TPTK against a known LAG on a board with no draws, at least calling is a must. [ QUOTE ] Exactly why am I putting my tournament on the line at such an early point with so little to gain? [/ QUOTE ] The pot is currently 21,200, that's not that little. Regards, Woodguy |

You're 'taking all of the other guy's chips with a better hand'. "Why am I putting my tourney on the line so early with so little to gain" is a line generally used by people trying to justify folding AA PF. It's weak tight and extremely wrong. Finding a fold in here is ridiculous. |
