Bad laydown, was I priced in?
1 table tournament. 4 handed. blinds are $2/$4 dollars. 2 two places paid.
Hero is UTG with 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Hero raises to $12 total, the button (who likes to see flops) thinks for awhile and calls the raise. SB moves all in for his last $23 dollars in chips. BB folds. Pot size $54. What should Hero do? What is the correct play? Hero has a stack of about $45 post raise. the Button has about $30 left to call the all in bet. the SB was short and getting desparte. Another question. This is my weekly home game. My friends know that I like to start playing very loose and aggressive as the game gets short handed. So when I raise with something like 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] from UTG and we are four or five handed, they know that I could be raising with alomst anything and they are more likley call my raises. I don't want to get blinded off by waiting for premium hands but I also want them to keep guessing what I have. Usually if they connect with the flop they will not let me push them around and it's hard to represent a good hand when they know I get loose when short handed. Any comments? Advice? How should I play in this spot? |

Re: Bad laydown, was I priced in?
I understand this hand eludes to a more general question, but we need some more info from you regardless.
Buyin: ______ 1st pays: ______ 2nd pays: ______ Blinds: $2/$4 ...blinds going up in ____ hands/min, to _____ Stacks before posting: hero-UTG ($57) Button ($42) SB ($25) BB ($__) Your reads are good, but filling in the blanks would be necessary to address this particular hand...in doing so, better demonstraing perhaps the answer to your more general question. |

Dump it. You have plenty of time to get a better hand to make a stand with. Just because SB is desperate doesn't mean he didn't catch a hand. And you are behind to many possible holdings.

My friend told me it was a [censored] laydown because I was getting at least 5 to 1. What do you think?

I think you were a tit for raising it in the first place.

Re: Bad laydown, was I priced in?
All three of these guys are at/near 10bb's (and you not far ahead). Push/fold time. 3x'ing into a known calling station (with position no less) is not a winning proposition. SB pushing over top here might have saved you some money. With button piling on behind, you don't have enough showdown strength 3-way IMO, despite/given the odds. |
