15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx
saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font> BB (t770) <font color="#C00000">Hero (t740)</font> Button (t5045)</font>[/b] SB (t6945) Preflop: Hero is UTG with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333"> The interesting part is that the BB has been sitting out the whole tourney but even if I fold every hand I still might not make the money because he currently has a little more chips than me. What is your move here? Do you push or try to fold into the money? I will post the results a little later. |

Re: 15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
Your chances at first and second are really low, and you're guaranteed third if you turn out autofold beacause the blinds hit him before they hit you.
Fold. |

Re: 15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
You'd think so.. but I bubbled the last time someone was on 'away' because he won something like 5 all-ins in a row, including the one against me, which crippled me; this after some absolute arse called with AJo when said 'away' was on 200 at 200/400 and about to hit the blinds, when I had the muppet covered by 1.5k.. but we won't go there.
I think FWIW this is a push.. |

Re: 15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
ok, here are the results. It's worth mentioning that after I busted 1 of the players said "what a terrible push with JJ" I still don't think it was that bad of a push

Re: 15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
If you can guarantee the BB will lose his hand by the time the blinds get to him, you can fold.. but I don't see any way you can guarantee that, and if he wins, you're screwed.. or what if he comes back.. so many things can go wrong here.

Re: 15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
Bleh, fold reluctantly.
Even if you double through you're probably not going to make 2nd so guarantee yourself a payday. |

Re: 15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
But folding doesn't guarantee him a payday, if he had 1k I would agree, but he's BARELY above the small stack here..

Re: 15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
I am pushing the crap out of this hand and praying for a call. He had overs and he caught. Big deal. Plenty of times the button will call with A-little, small pair or KJ and you'll probably double through easily. Don't be too results oriented.
I agree with tigerite...I've seen p/fs have an insane run of all-ins so never bank on that working in your favor anyway. |

Re: 15 turbo interesting JJ bubble hand
I've never seen someone who sat out from the start make a heroic return. He will surely win the race if the guy doesn't return. Just fold it.

Hero has to choose one to go with, because he has a shorter stack than the p/fer. You think he's gonna see a better one than JJ to do so with in the next 10-12? |
