Two NL $500 hands
$500 Live NL
Blinds are $5/10 Hand 1 8 Handed Stacks: CO: $1800 Button: $600 Hero: $1700 Table: The table has been mostly loose, passive preflop; very aggressive postflop. Reads: CO is a very good, solid tournament pro, but he's playing this cash game like it is a tourney. Button is super loose, super aggressive, super tricky. Hero is in the SB with 63o Preflop: UTG folds, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO calls, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks. Flop: K54 rainbow (5 players) Pot: $50 Hero donks it for $20, BB folds, MP1 folds, CO calls, Button raises to $120, Hero calls, CO raises to $220, Button pushes all-in $460, Hero ... ? <font color="blue">The only hand that I know neither have is KK. Button would make this move with any set, any two pair, or an open ended straight draw. CO has at least two pair. I am positive that if I am continuing with this hand, CO will ensure that all of the chips will be in the pot on the flop.</font> Hand 2 7 Handed Stacks: CO $800 Hero covers Reads: CO is the same CO from the first hand, but he is now a bit on tilt. Table: Still loose passive preflop, aggressive postflop Hero is on the button with 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Preflop: UTG folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, CO calls, Hero calls, SB folds, BB checks Flop: 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4 players) Pot: $40 BB checks, MP1 checks, CO bets $40, Hero raises to $120, BB folds, MP1 folds, CO raises to $420, Hero ... ? <font color="blue">My gut told me that he did not have the straight or the flush, but when he came back over the top...</font> |

Re: Two NL $500 hands
In the second hand I just flat call the first bet.

Hand 1 is a simple mathematic calculation. Hand 2 is a clear fold.

Hand 1 is a simple mathematic calculation. [/ QUOTE ] I have 35% equity and would be getting 3:1 on calling the button's all-in, but it would still cost me an extra $500 to call the CO's over the top (max raise is $500), so it would actually cost me $800 to win $1770. That's barely 2:1 and not worth it since I may miss on the turn and still have to call the CO's all-in. [ QUOTE ] Hand 2 is a clear fold. [/ QUOTE ] There is $280 in the pot and it costs Hero $300 to call, giving us about 2:1. We are sure to win the rest of CO's money if we hit the boat, so wouldn't it be calling $300 now to win a total of $950 ($280 + $300 + the $370 in the stack)? What hand do you put CO on and what hand does he put Hero on? |
