Re: $5.50 KQs on the Bubble
Youve been pushing with 3200 chips and 75/150 blinds?
Why? Here, I'd just do a standard raise, or maybe even just check, it depends on the table and the Button. |

Re: $5.50 KQs on the Bubble
Probably because I feel I suk post flop. I'm thinking of playing some SH ring games to work on my post flop play.

Re: $5.50 KQs on the Bubble
You should not be pushing with this much of a stack at these blinds.. it's just asking for trouble and the risk-to-reward ratio is ridiculously high

Which helps explain my plurality of 4th place finishes.

Re: $5.50 KQs on the Bubble
I'd just check here since it's not a fun hand to commit chips with OOP. If I hit then I go from there. There's an argument to raise, though.
However, the fact that you've been pushing with such a deep stack is not good at all. [ QUOTE ] Which helps explain my plurality of 4th place finishes. [/ QUOTE ] Yes it would. This is a huge flaw in your game, if you're just pushing with relatively deep stacks and 2 players that can call and eliminate you. The "pushbot" bubble strategy, in general, applies to <10BB, and it intensifies when stack sizes can affect you (ie. the button limper has t2300 more than you-more reason not to). Your postflop play may not be great, but I have to figure you can come up with a better line than repeated 20+BB all ins. Read the forum as much as possible, post hands, and keep playing. -SonnyJay |

I raise it to T550-600. I don't like checking, he could have limped with all kinds of crap.

[/ QUOTE ] True, but I'm not a huge fan of the OOP continuation bet against the big stack that can afford to play with me. If I felt that the big stack isn't too active postflop and I could frequently win the pot with a continuation bet if I whiff the flop, I'd raise. If he's shown he's willing to dance with less than optimal hands postflop I'm less inclined to. -SonnyJay |

Re: $5.50 KQs on the Bubble
I agree, and I would take this into consideration. However, I experience that the big stacks often want to see a cheap flop, and I won't let them. If he's active then put pressure on him.

Re: $5.50 KQs on the Bubble
Ok if I raise it to 600, big stack calls and flop comes A85 rainbow. What's my line, assuming the big stack is loose but not a total maniac post flop.
