two free play in the BB hands
Both of these hands occurred in a Party $100+9 NLHE single table tournament.
Hand 1 Button 4000 SB 2700 Hero (BB) 3300 Blinds 100/200 Hero holds Ad8d Button calls, SB fold, hero checks Flop Td 9d 6h. My plan here was to check raise all-in. My plan was foiled when the button went all-in (3000 bet into 500 pot). Anyone call here with 12, possibly 15 outs? Hand 2: UTG 3000 CO 2500 Button 1400 SB 2000 Hero (BB) 1100 Blinds 100/200 Hero holds 9c8d UTG calls, CO fold, button folds, SB calls, hero checks Flop Ad 9s 3h SB checks, Hero moves all-in (900 into 600 pot). My thinking was that I am getting short stacked, I have a reasonable chance of having the best hand and I do not want to give any free cards. Thoughts? Paul |

hand 1
Hand 1:
It's a close call. Very hard to estimate number of outs, since he could have any kind of draws, sets, two pairs or whatever. Your average (and most likely, I think) number of outs could be around 13-14, giving you a nice 50% winning chance. Guess it depends on your risk aversion [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. |

hand 2
For what it's worth, I would have done the same.

Re: two free play in the BB hands
I don't play the 109s, so do what you want with my advice:
1) I was going to say that I pushed this preflop, but then I saw the blinds are still pretty small. I still probably would, but that'd depend on how this person was playing (if he hadn't limped before, I probably wouldn't). Assuming that I just checked, I wouldn't call this. Why risk it when the blinds are low and you've got a big stack. Fold it and wait for a better spot. 2) I'm not sure what I do. At the 33s I'm worried about UTG limping with A3 or A6 or what have you, because they like to do that. |

I did not expect to win with 100% certainty. Limpers also have hands like 77 KJs etc. The question is how often will the opponent not hold an ace. I'll post results later after more discussion.
