99- What's your line?

ladykiller · #1 12-05-2005, 04:41 AM

$150 buy in on Party and I just made the money. Blinds are 300/600 and I have 7500 in chips. UTG+3 raises to 1900 (he has ~19k). No reads as I have just been moved to the table and I have 99 in the cutoff. What's my line?

I don't think he's raising more than 3 BBs with AA-KK, but I don't think he has air either given the size of the bet and his position. You're probably a marginal favorite to his range though I do think a hand like JJ is very likely.

Also, a lot depends on the stacks of the players yet to act, but I probably push here more often than not.

push. your obviously ahead of any nonpaired hand and also any low pair. his bet looks more like a blind steal than anything else. your in the money, but you want to advance further than that. You don't mind a race against AK or AQ and you have some fold equity.

Is there nobody that just calls here and then pushes a harmless flop? If a bunch of paint comes and villain leads you'll have decent amount of chips to double up with.

only if considered a shove after any flop. thats just me.

i don't think it's crazy, but you hate to see a blind come in behind you.

don't like calling unless I know I'm putting it allin after the flop, too much of a chance that I will have to be calling or folding to his CB. I'd rather push it in now while I still have some FE. who's to say what flop is harmless?
