I think if you push he can put you on lesser hands and his calling range will be expanded. If you call that would around suspicion plus you might miss. [/ QUOTE ] Uh...what? |

[/ QUOTE ] I apologize, English was never my strong suit. Let me try to better explain myself. If I try to steal from the button, let's say for the sake of argument, and the BB goes all in on an apparent re-steal, do you necessarily put him on only a premium hand? I know I don't. I would put him on a better hand if I see him flat call (or min-raise/do something fancy) rather than resteal all-in. Therefore, I think it may be +cEV to push here rather than so a fancy non-all-in re-raise or flat call. Did I explain myself clearer or should I try again? |

Re: $30 NL stars blind battle.
Alright, I've heard enough from people telling me it's an easy push. I figured it was too, and I instapushed from the bb and even faster than that, he called me with 55 and won the race.
The main reason I posted this is wanting to see if anyone does not want to race for this many chips, either against a small pair or against something else. I think his over-raise limits my options. |

Re: $30 NL stars blind battle.
yep. easy push. you're way ahead of his current range, and you're about a coinflip with his calling range.. so it's slightly profitabe even if you are called everytime, and since you do have good FE being one of th eonly stacks that can [censored] him up.

Re: $30 NL stars blind battle.
and we're not even getting into that part of TPFAP which suggested playing AK all in - if for no other reason then to see all 5 cards -
Given a choice, I'd rather see a fold to my reraise, but if I see AK I'll take my chances on either side of the coinflip - but the +EV of this move is the amount of times he'll fold and call with inferior hands - not the time you win coin flips. RB |

I started drooling when I saw that he raised here, then puked when he called with 55. But there are situations where getting all your chips into the middle with less than 80/20 can make you feel sick. This isn't one of them I suppose. |
