AQo hand early in tournament
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (10 handed) converter
UTG (t1790) UTG+1 (t920) UTG+2 (t280) MP1 (t1165) MP2 (t1955) MP3 (t4390) Hero (t1540) Button (t1515) SB (t910) BB (t1420) Preflop: Hero is CO with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to t400</font>, Hero ?? MP3 has been playing very aggressive seeing most flops and I was pretty sure this was a blind steal with at best marginal hands. The oversized raise of 400 suggests bullying and wants to take down the pot without a flop. If he had anything i'm scared of he would make a smaller bet hoping to get some action. Now what should I do ? raise, go all-in..? |

Re: AQo hand early in tournament
i would fold. he's blind stealing when the blinds are 10/20? This guy is probably a donk but AQo is not something i'm risking all my chips on this early in a tournament.

Also, I've found that in this situation, villain has JJ or QQ and doesn't want to see a flop because "An A always comes when I have QQ..."

Re: AQo hand early in tournament
I talked about something similar in the bad beat thread earlier today. The guy very well may have a good-great hand here, if he is aware of his image.
:Edited because I suck and this had to be my 400th post. And also to agree with what Gavin said: |

Re: AQo hand early in tournament
hmm ye thinking about it folding is probably the best option as it's not worth the risk at this stage even if he does probably have a worse hand than I. wish i'd done that when I played the hand [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

Re: AQo hand early in tournament
Run for the hills. There is NO reason to get involved in this hand for 25% of your chips with such deep stacks. If he wants to risk t400 to gain t30, let him. It is just as likely that he drew a big paid or AK and is looking to entice someone to raise him all in to take advantage of his table image.
Now lets go see what everyone else had to say.... |
