TPGK, Villain moves in on river
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) converter
CO (t1270) Button (t1400) Hero (t1720) BB (t1860) UTG (t1480) UTG+1 (t1450) MP1 (t1280) MP2 (t1690) MP3 (t1350) Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, MP3 calls t30, CO calls t30, Button calls t30, Hero completes, BB checks. Flop: (t150) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t100</font>, BB folds, MP3 folds, CO calls t100, Button folds. Turn: (t350) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t210</font>, CO calls t210. River: (t770) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets t930 (All-In)</font>, Hero? This was fairly early in a PS $11. Earlier Villain had cost himself a couple of hundred when he kept betting into his opponent holding 2 to a 3456 board. Of course opponent had a 7. My thinking pre-flop was OOP with all these limpers I didn't want to get married to the pot, so I decided to keep it small. Is that terrible? So I flop TP, and bet the flop and the turn. I put Villain on a weak Ace. I don't really know what I was thinking with the river check. What am I to make of his river all-in? |

Folds and stays away from AJo in level 1 in the future. It's a crap hand dressed up as a good hand. Later on in the SnG it makes for excellent pushing material though.

Sorry, but folding AJo for 15 chips into 150 pot preflop? That's poor poker.

Re: TPGK, Villain moves in on river
I may have gone for a check-raise on the flop, but other than that you did fine. I would check-fold the river if my opponent pushed.
Folding preflop is NOT an option. No one has raised, so it's not likely that you're dominated. |

If hero doesn't but keep playing it like TPTK when villains actions should make him back off, it is chipsaving poker. I am not seriously advocating folding preflop, more like caution postflop. |
