PP $5 R+A Final two tables...small stack CALLs
Greetings all. Sometime reader, first time poster.
It's a PP $5 R+A, down from 1700 or so players to 12 on two tables. Read on CO was 10% bluff, 40% mid-pockets, 40% AK/AQ/AJ, 10% high pockets. CO had been raising in position 2.5 BB or so with some regularity. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t40000 (6 handed) Button (t260484) Hero (t210423) BB (t507755) UTG (t449024) MP (t657509) CO (t432155) Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t110000</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls t90000, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>. Flop: (t260000) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t100423 (All-In)</font>, CO calls t100423. Turn: (t460846) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font> River: (t460846) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font> Final Pot: t460846 I'd be very interested in hearing feedback on my choice to call as opposed to push. My pre-flop intention was to try a stop and go as I suspected that a push here would have been called regardless. Or...Did simply I mangle this? All feedback greatly appreciated. |

Push preflop, this isn't a time for a stop and go because you probably have a pretty big edge against this guys range of hands

Re: PP $5 R+A Final two tables...small stack CALLs
So...does this mean that I assigned him too small a percentage for bluff? I assumed that even as active as he was, he must at least be raising with small pockets or unsuited high cards. I don't have a big edge against the majority of those holdings and was hoping to avoid a coinflip.
Believe me, I'm looking for reasons to push this preflop - and again, I'd decided preflop that all my money was going in on the flop - so either way my money is going in. Doesn't it seem like it would be +EV to at least attempt to get him to laydown on the flop? Am I severely underestimating the likelihood that he would fold to a preflop reraise all-in? Am I severely underestimating the likelihood that I am a big favorite preflop? Thanks for the response, |
