AQs ITM Play
NL Texas Hold'em $20 Buy-in + $2 Entry Fee Trny:15557651 Level:5 Blinds(75/150) - Thursday, September 08, 14:48:47 EDT 2005
Table Table 13839 (Real Money) Seat 10 is the button Total number of players : 3 Seat 10: redwonder ( $868 ) Seat 1: HERO ( $2355 ) Seat 9: nesser2 ( $4777 ) Trny:15557651 Level:5 Blinds(75/150) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to HERO [ A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ] redwonder folds. HERO raises [400]. nesser2 is all-In [4627] HERO??? My first thought here is to call. However, after running some simulations calling seems to be -EV considering that the shortstack has only t868 chips. What do you guys think? |

Re: AQs ITM Play
I agree with the simulations, it's probably -EV to call.

Re: AQs ITM Play
i'd call. you're way ahead of bb's range with dead money in the pot. if the shorty had 1 chip i'd think about it, but i think this is a pretty clear call.

Being ITM already, if you want to win, you need to take some risks. I'd call here and take a chance.
He's probably got a pocket pair or A-K. A-K your SOL, but PP it's a coin flip. Earlier in a tourney I'm folding this |

Re: AQs ITM Play
I'd call here. It's very likely the BB thought you were trying to steal here and could be pushing with a wide range of hands. If the shortstack had less chips I'd consider folding but if you fold here and he's able to double up shortly after you're going to be about even in chips so I'd call and go for the win.

At the $22s: Gamble for 1st, settle for 3rd.
I think you are ahead of most hands here. Coin flip on pretty much everything else. If he turns AA, drop a GG on him and fire up another....and don't forget to ask redwonder for a cut of his 2nd place winning. |

Re: AQs ITM Play
Because of the stack sizes and blind sizes, against an aggressive BB I am just calling preflop. When he raises me, push. Put him to the decision.
If he's not aggressive, you aren't crushing his range here and can safely fold. |
