what would you do in this situation?
mid stages of 13K tourny.
my stack 13K , villian stack 5.5K blinds 200/400 UTG open raises to 800 UTG+1 (Hero) calls with 99. every one folds to the villian on the BB who reraises to 2400 leaving him self about 3K left. my read on the villian is that he is very good player and well caple of making this move with any two cards and try to dteal the pot there. a squeez move and also leaving him with 3K as well. whats my move and why? bytheway UTG folds |

Yes UTG folds and there are no antes. [/ QUOTE ] so you have to call 1600 into a pot of 4200. 2.6:1. Given your read it sounds like an easy call. you also state that this is a 13k tourny. is this a guaranteed 13k? or a 13k buyin? if it is small buyin, given your read on villain trying to make this move with any 2, then i may consider a push and hope for a race or better. |

Re: what would you do in this situation?
nah its 13K grtd.
based on my read would pushing be a bad idea here ? under what situions would pushing better than calling? i assume i would have to call his all in bet after the flop as long as the flop has maybe just one over card? in that case is pushing not more +EV based on my FE? |

[/ QUOTE ] pushing is fine. you have him outstacked and I wouldnt count on any FE since he has already put in almost half his stack. |

Re: what would you do in this situation?
What did UTG do?
Assuming he folded I'd probably flat call t1,600 into the t3,800 pot, making the pot t5,800. Small enough to get away from if the flop is in-opportune and he pushes. 20% of the time no card higher than your nines will flop. 13% of the time you'll flop a set. Folding is too tight here. Pushing is a possibility, but I'd prefer the call. Best, McMelchior (Johan) |

Re: what would you do in this situation?
From Villian's point of view, there has been a min raise and a call. No one has shown any great strength. I think that he can make a squeeze play with almost any hand but wouldn't he want to go allin instead? With a raise of 3 times the amount of the original raise, I think that he may be making this move with some sort of hand if he is a tight player. But I don't see him doing this with AA or KK. Maybe QQ - TT, AK, AQ, AJ. If he is a loose player, it could be just two high cards.
If I were you, I would gamble and put him to the test and go all in. If you lose, you still have an M above 10. |

I would fold BTF.
Your call doesn't complete the action. You're not desperate yet, and you have multiple players to act behind you with a medium holding at best. The worst case scenario, a raise behind you, which looks suspicious for Aces, then occurred. Bruce |

Re: what would you do in this situation?
i know the call out of position with 99 is not really adviced,but i purely called for the set value fully indenting to any decent raise behind me and if the sition was any other than what happned i would have lay them down preflop.
