HERO...?

Reults in white:

Villain had QTo, I bet again on the turn, he raised all-in, I called, he hit a Q on the river to add insult to injury 

Should I have checked on the turn? I'll be ahead here more than often, right?

This would be my line:

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (10 handed) converter

BB (t1075)
UTG (t800)
UTG+1 (t805)
UTG+2 (t550)
MP1 (t650)
MP2 (t905)
MP3 (t990)
Hero (t710)
Button (t770)
SB (t745)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
4 folds, MP2 calls t30, 1 fold, Hero raises to t120, 3 folds, MP2 calls t90.

Flop: (t245) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets all-in

Are you positive you're not being result-oriented here?

Why go all-in? 590 left with 245 in the pot... oh, I see, the pot is 50%, and you choose to go all-in instead of betting the pot following the 40% rule. Ok [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] makes sense.

Thanks.

No You shouldn't have checked the turn. Yes you'll be ahead here more than not.

Cant help the fact he plays bad.

wiggs73 · #5 07-12-2005, 09:55 AM

Push the turn, don't be results oriented.

brimstone1 · #6 07-12-2005, 09:55 AM

Thank you, I'm at a point where I need reassurance even about AA, heh, thanks again.

I'm not, because the donky fish would have called with QTo anyway I suspect. Yes, I push because I'm committed to the pot anyway, it looks more like a bluff, and encourages bad calls, too.

Yes, except you want a call with AA from QTo on this flop. As long as you deny him odds to draw to his 5 outer you win Sklanskybux.

Bet more preflop so you can bet more on the flop and still get callers, push turn.

I would've just pushed the turn but obviously it wouldn't have changed the results of the hand.

I like your pre-flop raise and flop bet. Popping it much higher pre-flop than what you did might've lost him.

Bad luck.

tigerite · #10 07-12-2005, 10:10 AM

I agree. But this is a $10+$1 and they will call anyway.
