109: Bubble call from SB
Maybe it's not an interesting hand... but I see people say that you should only call with AA or KK in this spot, and I disagree. Especially at the 109s when you play a lot of the same players again and again, and have a lot of bubble experience against them.
Button is a good bubble player--- He's pushing at a minimum every Ace, King, and pair... I've seen him push much worse hands as well-- though correctly. Also, one VERY important thing is that I KNOW that he doesn't push AA or KK here. On a side-note, in this set of 8 games, I happened to be at 4 tables with him. I've just busted him out at three of them, during the push/fold stage. 400/800 Tourney Texas Hold'em Game Table (NL) (Tournament ) - Wed Dec 07 22:42:56 EST 2005 Table Table 67199 (Real Money) -- Seat 5 is the button Total number of players : 4 Seat 3: UTG (1475) Seat 5: Button (3060) Seat 8: bad_egg (3835) Seat 9: BB (1630) bad_egg posts small blind (200) BB posts big blind (400) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to bad_egg [ Ks, As ] UTG folds. Button raises (3060) to 3060 Button is all-In. bad_egg raises (3635) to 3835 bad_egg is all-In. BB folds. Creating Main Pot with $6520 with Button Creating Side Pot 1 with $775 with bad_egg ** Dealing Flop ** : [ 5h, Qs, Tc ] ** Dealing Turn ** : [ 2s ] ** Dealing River ** : [ Js ] ** Summary ** Main Pot: 6520 | Side Pot 1: 775 Board: [ 5h Qs Tc 2s Js ] UTG balance 1475, didn't bet (folded) Button balance 0, lost 3060 [ Jh 3h ] [ a pair of jacks -- Qs,Jh,Js,Tc,5h ] bad_egg balance 7295, bet 3835, collected 7295, net +3460 [ Ks As ] [ a flush, ace high -- As,Ks,Qs,Js,2s ] BB balance 1230, lost 400 (folded) ******* Who would say that I should fold here and just wait for a confrontation with him ITM, knowing what I know about the Button's wide range of hands? I think it's also important to note the the Button was correct in his push here. |
