Too aggressive? (similar to the hot thread about Daliman's hand) - Page 5

You gotta put him on a range of hands and do the calcs. Sure, he may push with A2, but if his pushing range is PP, Ax, then well he could have A2, but he could have AK. The question is, how do you do against the whole range. If he won't push with, say, J4, the calcs are going to come out a lot worse for A7 than if you say he pushes with any two.

Plus, A7 wasn't even a good call if he pushes with any two. If you KNEW he had 72 it would be a different story.

Read my post. I said I don't call there. Glad you put some thought into your post.

is some advice. Heres the HH:
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) converter

Button (t1500)
Hero (t1500)
BB (t1500)
UTG (t1500)
UTG+1 (t1500)
MP1 (t1500)
MP2 (t1500)
MP3 (t1500)
CO (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9, Q.
2 folds, MP1 calls t20, 3 folds, Button calls t20, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t80) 9, T, Q (4 players)
Hero bets t140, BB folds, MP1 calls t140, Button calls t140.

Turn: (t500) 4 (3 players)
Hero bets t400, MP1 folds, Button calls t400.

River: (t1300) K (2 players)

Final Pot: t1300

Looking back..I think the SB complete might have been fhishy but i like the flop overbet.
Call/Fold/Push and why?

I think that one of the most dangerous situations in holdem come when you have top+bottom or bottom 2 pair on a coordinated board, against many opponents with deepish stacks. I think I've been guilty of overplaying in this spot and most others do as well.

What the bloody heck is wrong with everyone? As demonstrated, the caller made a +chip EV decision and everyone is calling the caller a complete moron. Last time I checked, +chip EV is a good thing, and you want to be making those calls in those situations, and making that call in almost any situation hardly qualifies anyone as a complete moron.

I don't like the peanut-gallery drooling substanceless replies I've seen so far in this chain. If some better poker player can show the reasoning to me, I'll accept it. Until then, I'll continue to call a push-with-any-two player with A7 last to act.
