Re: Stars $500k hand w/TP against another big stack
[ QUOTE ]
So a CB means an A? Okey-dokey. [/ QUOTE ] I also mentioned pocket pairs... My point is opponent is not scared, and given we're approaching the bubble and since most people do not play the bubble like MLG I give greater credence to the probability of a made hand, that's not afraid of that board. I also think that if villain views Lloyd as aggressive he knows he will not be able to get him to lay down - this to me also makes a fush draw less likely. |

[/ QUOTE ] Remember, I said that I had been a little aggressive but not overly so. So I definitely don't think he's putting me on complete trash here. |

Re: Stars $500k hand w/TP against another big stack
I'd call.
People like to jam AK/AQ preflop. I think a lag would reraise you with 77... Getting 2-1 I call. How does your answer change if this was rainbow? |

Re: Stars $500k hand w/TP against another big stack
As many other posters have said, he seems to be bullying or on a flush draw. If he has a set of 7s or a better Ace, why the raise? Most good players would call there and hope for another bet on the turn. His reraise all-in looks to be a semi-bluff, but it's still a sticky situation. I call here the majority of the time, and your read on him is so important.
I want to also add that threads like this are why I check this site 10+ times a day. Thank you everyone for what you post, even if it's not popular. There is so much to think about, and 2+2 helps me learn tons! CALL! (and tell us what happened) |

Re: Stars $500k hand w/TP against another big stack
I think you're probably stuck calling getting 2:1.
The bigger question is that if you're stuck calling should you have ever bet the flop in the first place. |

Re: Stars $500k hand w/TP against another big stack
I called. Getting 2 to 1 odds I thought that the possibility he was on a flush or had something like A9s gave me more than enough equity. He had AK and I didn't improve.
