Trying to get most from big hands
These two hands were early in a SnG, and you guys seem better at extracting value with deep(ish) stacks, so I'm asking over here:
Hand 1: Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) internettexasholdem.com UTG+1 (t975) UTG+2 (t845) MP1 (t785) MP2 (t790) MP3 (t770) CO (t815) Hero (t435) SB (t1015) BB (t785) UTG (t785) Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to t55</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t120</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP3 calls t65. Flop: (t262.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> MP3 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t130</font>, MP3 folds. Final Pot: t392.50 - Should I have just called pre-flop? - Should I give the free card on the flop? Hand 2: Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (10 handed) internettexasholdem.com MP2 (t950) MP3 (t895) CO (t625) Button (t975) SB (t730) BB (t700) Hero (t605) UTG+1 (t1005) UTG+2 (t815) MP1 (t700) Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Hero calls t30, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls t30, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, CO calls t30, Button calls t30, SB completes, BB checks. Flop: (t180) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font> SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks, MP1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets t85</font>, Button calls t85, SB folds, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t250</font>, MP1 folds, CO folds, Button folds. Final Pot: t600 - Is this a WA/WB situation? There's only 4 cards I have to improve (probably less given the action). - My strength is hidden, should I just call? In both of these, I feel like I'm strong enough that I should be able to extract more money from each. Or am I mistaken, and both hands aren't that strong? |

Wrong forum.
You'll get better feedback in the 1TT forum then here. |

Re: Trying to get most from big hands
Your raise in hand 1 sucks. Either make a real raise, or just flat call and be tricky, but don't make a minraise.
Hand 2 - you have a strong hand but it's very vulnerable on that board....you've gotta raise here to protect your hand. |

Re: Trying to get most from big hands
I'd usually come out firing in hand 2, instead of check raising. If it gets checked around and any T, K or diamond comes you're gonna be kicking yourself for not betting.
