Party 109.

Villian seems reasonable enough.

Seat 1: Hero ( $855 )
Seat 2: guy( $930 )
Seat 3: guy ( $150 )
Seat 4: guy ( $1485 )
Seat 5: guy ( $3515 )
Seat 6: BigMeanie ( $2030 )
Seat 9: Shorty ( $295 )
Seat 10: guy ( $740 )

Blinds(25/50)

Hero is dealt ??

Hero raises [140].
4 folds.
BigMeanie raises [300].
Shorty is all-In [270]
guy folds.

Back to Hero.

What hands do you do what with here?

What kind of a junk raise is 140?

freemoney · #5 08-08-2005, 01:52 AM

honestly i wish i could give a good response but i really cant i think its really situational and sometimes i do things almost innately and i cant really explain why but i probably smooth call here and if no A or K comes i open push the flop b/c so if an A comes he will check down hands like 88 usually because pot is protected.

freemoney · #6 08-08-2005, 01:53 AM

yeah theres basically zero hands i like the raise to 140 with.

dude, you've played with me enough to know thats what I raise at this level.

Well, I thought such reraise meant he had AK AA, KK, QQ .
So I would play the hand accordingly
But Freemoney think he can really hold such junk as 88 and all my logic is false in this case.

i was just kidding thomas. i remeber seeing you raise it to 140 once before.

freemoney · #10 08-08-2005, 02:06 AM

i think this is why its so situational...there are alot of players who only do this raise with the range you listed and theres people who do it with alot wider of a range of hands, against a pretty aggro guy the pot is too big to fold when it comes back to you pre and then when its a nonscary flop i cant fold so maybe its one problem that leads to another...
