$22 - Stop n go with 66 or try to double up?
PartyPoker, Big Blind is t100 (7 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com
UTG (t1095) UTG+1 (t555) MP1 (t1265) CO (t1485) Button (t1600) SB (t1350) Hero (t650) Preflop: Hero is in BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">MP1 folds</font>, <font color="red">CO raises to t200</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="gray">SB folds</font>, Hero ? Okay so my options are to try a stop n go or push and hope to double through. I think it's a push, mostly because we're far away from the bubble at this point, so trying to stay alive isn't imperative or anything. But a stop n go adds ~50% to my stack if it works. Plus I can check-trap the flop if I set up. One big argument against the stop n go is that I've already shown it this tourney. My queens ran into aces and I was left with 210 chips, I SNGed and caught a straight on the turn to stay alive. So this dude is probably calling the flop anyway. I'm playing a bunch of bubbles atm and am having a tough time articulating everything that I've thought about, but you get the idea. |

This is a beautiful spot for a stop n go as you likely will have zero FE pf, but could definately attain some post flop.

Guess I'm a tighty. 7 handed, I probably fold here too much. I think pushing or folding here is best btw.

folding is terrible...absolutely terrible, you have 1/6th of your stack in the pot with 66 against a cutoff open min-raise! I think a stop+go is a reasonable option, as is pushing preflop. I'd usually push.

Of course I would fold it, but not with only 6x the BB. I'm not sure of the exact amount...maybe 9-10x?

I thought if he were donk raising a QJ or something like that, he might fold to a push preflop. Also I'm probably racing, which isn't so bad because I'd like to double up anyway. I didn't want to let him see the flop cheap on the small chance he did have some crappy holding. Also, as I mentioned in my first post, we're still far enough away that I should be more concerned about this as an opportunity to double up rather than try to maximize my FE and survival. Anyway yeah, I shoved, he had KQ, I sucked out and doubled through. |
