($33) - Level 3, TT early position
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx
CO (t1210) Button (t642) SB (t1320) BB (t905) UTG (t303) UTG+1 (t1460) MP1 (t1430) Hero (t730) Preflop: Hero is MP2 with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. UTG calls t50, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ...</font> I don't like folding. I don't like calling. I like raising, but to how much? Also, what do I do about a push behind me? |

Re: ($33) - Level 3, TT early position
You could push, call, or raise. I usually push here, but it's write on the border of raising and calling a push.

Re: ($33) - Level 3, TT early position
oh wierd i thought i typed a response to this. i must have hit index instead of continue.
anyway, i just said that i usually push in this situation. its not that much of an overbet, there is 125 chips in the pot, and you'll, frankly, get looked up by 88 here just as often as you do by AQ (or the worse ones like JJ). it also away the initiative from someone else trying to push me out of the pot preflop, or, potentially worse, calling in LP and having to "play poker" on a flop with (very) shallow stacks. |

I kinda like raising to 150 here.

raise to 150. And I'd probably fold to a push. I'm not desperate enough yet.

You are in MP, not early position.
Anyway, I push. I think you are too short to raise and then have to deal with overcards on the flop. |

Re: ($33) - Level 3, TT early position
i see your problem in that if you raise to 200 or so you are almost comitted on a reraise. if you get reraised all in you will be getting, on a raise of 200 basically 2-1 or so. but i dont see how else you can play it since you run teh risk of getting pushed of a flop.
i think there was a thread a few months ago where it was determined you would flop an overpair often enough that you could just call and then push if all low cards came or you otherwise felt strong. that might be the best play here. Pat |
