Top Pair in a STEP 5
I'm trying my hardest to find some hands for you guys to look at. It's tough to know which of your plays are questionable.
This is from a STEP 5. The Villain has only raised a couple times preflop thus far, and I haven't seen his hands then. He only called when a short stack went all in ~400 with AA, I suppose hoping to get callers behind him. That entered into my mind during this hand... Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (9 handed) converter Button (t635) Hero (t1005) BB (t900) UTG (t1260) UTG+1 (t1865) MP1 (t1570) MP2 (t925) MP3 (t880) CO (t960) Preflop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t100, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks. Flop: (t300) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 bets t325</font>, Hero ? |

Re: Top Pair in a STEP 5
Did you plan on check-raising, but the bet was bigger than you were expecting?
Does Raptor know it is KK because he saw the hand? I would have bet out. |

Re: Top Pair in a STEP 5
ouch. The board is pretty coordinated so it looks like a good protection bet or an excellent bluff. I guess I'm folding since I still have 9xbb; but I don't play steps and should be ignored.

[/ QUOTE ] can go either way depending on the table. if u think u play well enough to not get trapped in a situation such as this, then by all means call for yer 5 to 1. if u dont lose any chips on this flop, you are doing well.. however a lot of people that would complete here also wouldnt play the hand well post flop. nice check fold. holla |
