Curtains made me do it! #2

[The Yugoslavian]

$215
level 8 (200/400)
3 handed
Seat 10 is the button

Seat 8: devancali25 ( $968 )
Seat 9: wadnbuttAA ( $4240 )
Seat 10: curtainz ( $4792 )

** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to curtainz [ 6h Jh ]

I don't think there are any real good reads to be had at this stage except that wadnbuttAA has been able to give curtains a few amazingly well timed walks (what a lucksack [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] ). So perhaps one could take that into account but meh.

What is your standard play here and why?

I beleive I made some normal raise to like 1000-1100. My opponent wasnt going to pull some move on me if the SB folded (they seemed tight and unimaginative) and I felt they would lean towards folding all but the best hands. I think that pushing would be a bit foolhardy against this opponent, as I can safely count on a strong hand if they reraise me. The SB was completely out of his mind but I only found that out a bit later.

Of course folding is reasonable as well, I just felt that it was a clear +EV steal situation. Even if Im called by the SB its no problem, because of the dead 400 from the BB.

I like your line. For me, to correctly apply it, I must learn however to stick to your thought that you'll fold against resistance and not getting suddenly carried away with pot odds or something,

If they are tight and unimaginative you probably almost have the same FE as a push, only now you can fold when they reraise all-in, because then they'd really have a hand.

And if the other big stack is just a little loose pushing is very bad here I think.

No one considering a standard raise to 1100 or so?

No reads on level 8, huh?

My standard play is to fold because I'm dumb. Thank you for this post. It's a push.

micro, it's not that there are no reads....it's just that there aren't any significant ones that would indicate to me, anyway, what these guys will necessarily do 3 handed. I found this one interesting based on what curtains actually did.

If you need a read it would be that 3 handed these guys are going to be a bit 'smart looser' than in a $33....but in a earlier curtains HH some dude called an allin 3 handed i believe with 96o when the pot odds were no good, so whatever.
