JJ vs. all-in checkraise
Early stages of a 20+2 SNG. The first limper is rather loose, as is the BB. No read on the other limpers.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) converter UTG (t1990) UTG+1 (t1940) MP1 (t1487) MP2 (t1347) MP3 (t1625) Hero (t1650) Button (t688) SB (t1278) BB (t1495) Preflop: Hero is CO with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. UTG calls t30, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls t30, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 calls t30, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t150</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB calls t120, UTG calls t120, MP1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to t1625</font> Is this a clear fold, or should I be reading something more into this? EDIT: Mistyped the title...should be all-in limp-reraise. |

Re: JJ vs. all-in checkraise
Hrm, well, do u like takin coinflips early? I don't see AA, KK, QQ... i definetley smell 77-JJ... I think the MP3 is thinkin this, "I have a pocket pair, plenty of dead money, let's take a coinflip vs AK/AQ." However i could also see JJ and then u split, i definetely don't see you being dominated. Now it's all about the coinflip, and i don't think you are a coinflip. Meaning u are a 4:1 favorite, so i'd call with a pretty good hand early in a SNG.

Re: JJ vs. all-in checkraise
Fold. You're most likely facing a coin-flip. Smaller pairs with maniacal owners *might* make this play but consider that there are more combinations of two big cards than there are of smaller pairs.

Re: JJ vs. all-in checkraise
At the lower levels, in this situation I see hands 7s-10s far more than I see AK or AQ, and I barely ever see AA or KK. People with mid pocket pair see a large preflop raise, get excited because they think you have two high cards, and push all in when it gets around to them. I see this play all the time at 10+1 and 20+2, especially in levels 1 and 2. Most of the time, I would call without even hesitating.
Edit: I just noticed you're playing at PokerStars. With the deeper chip stacks, folding might be a better option, but I would take my chances at Party. |

Re: JJ vs. all-in checkraise
I see limp-reraise allin and I'm thinking AA. Easy fold. |

Re: JJ vs. all-in checkraise
This guy limped behind an utg limper then went all in after your raise and a call. I dont think this is an easy fold. I think you get shown a lot more than just AA here.

Re: JJ vs. all-in checkraise
There are a few reasons why I could see calling here.
He limped in behind a limper -- you'll see AA or KK less often here. It's early in the tourney. If you are against overcards, a coinflip here wouldn't be *that* bad of a situation, since you haven't invested that much time. Normally you don't want to be taking flips this early, but given the likelihood that you'll be shown a hand like TT on down, this might be a good spot to take a stand. The stack sizes are fairly equal. You don't really have a stack to protect, or any shorties to wait out. This is one of the rare situations where I might take a chance with JJ against an all-in reraise. |
