Should I be calling to eliminate a player?
Here's a couple situations from a Party $33 Limit Tourney:
The first one is seems like a relatively easy fold to be but I'm wondering if I should see the flop. 200/400 TourneyTexasHTGameTable (Limit) (Tournament 12454402) - Mon May 23 07:45:54 EDT 2005 Table $3,000 guaranteed(342981) Table 2 (Real Money) -- Seat 1 is the button Total number of players : 8 Seat 1: blkturbo996 (850) Seat 2: paxtonquigly (935) Seat 3: Blindcurve (3385) Seat 4: madprodigy (3025) Seat 5: dedor (1390) Seat 6: okie2525 (5984) Seat 8: Beebles (3980) Seat 9: joshkoz (8328) paxtonquigly posts small blind (100) Blindcurve posts big blind (200) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to Blindcurve [ 3h, 2d ] madprodigy folds. dedor folds. okie2525 folds. Beebles folds. joshkoz folds. blkturbo996 folds. paxtonquigly raises (300) to 400 Blindcurve ?? Here, he's only got 500 more, I have to hit to win and he has to totally miss. Also, he might have a pair and everything beats me. It's a total muck against a pair, but against something like AT or KQ? This second hand seems a little harder to judge: 300/600 TourneyTexasHTGameTable (Limit) (Tournament 12454402) - Mon May 23 08:02:09 EDT 2005 Table $3,000 guaranteed(342981) Table 2 (Real Money) -- Seat 10 is the button Total number of players : 9 Seat 1: blkturbo996 (900) Seat 3: Blindcurve (2785) Seat 4: madprodigy (800) Seat 5: dedor (1540) Seat 6: okie2525 (3144) Seat 7: bbeamer777 (9685) Seat 8: Beebles (7930) Seat 9: joshkoz (9128) Seat 10: Strykis (3384) blkturbo996 posts small blind (150) Blindcurve posts big blind (300) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to Blindcurve [ Td, 7c ] madprodigy raises (600) to 600 dedor folds. okie2525 folds. bbeamer777 folds. Beebles folds. joshkoz folds. Strykis folds. blkturbo996 folds. Blindcurve ?? Should I be thinking "I have two live cards lets race for 200 more?" Or just let him pickup my blind? Comments? -D. |

Re: Should I be calling to eliminate a player?
hey some familiar faces.
I finished 3rd behind you, you kept stealing my BB from the SB. This was only my 3rd limit holdem tournament so I wasn't sure how to deal with this in limit play. I lost over half my stack when I rereaised you before the flop with J6 offsuit and you hit a queen on the turn with your Q8 in an attempt to stop you from doing this. |

Re: Should I be calling to eliminate a player?
you are not calling "to eliminate a player" you are calling because you are getting sweet odds. And yes, fold the first, call the second.
