99 shortstacked
PP 109 MTT only 50 entrants, down to the last 9, payouts 8th ($250) through to 1st ($1500). Last 2 tables just combined with 10th going out first hand. No read on villain (guess I should have been watching table #2 too), but my table had been LAGgy.
Questions: 1. what would you do here? 2. what would you do if villain had raised to 600? There's a follow-up question, but I'll present that after the results. 200/400 Tourney Texas Hold'em Game Table (NL) (Tournament 16112206) - Tue Sep 27 09:38:53 EDT 2005 Table Multi-Table(471272) Table 1 (Real Money) -- Seat 2 is the button Total number of players : 9 Seat 2: A (5544) Seat 3: B (4171) Seat 4: Villain (6154) Seat 5: C (12255) Seat 6: D (3455) Seat 7: E (6322) Seat 8: Hero (1601) Seat 9: F (2842) Seat 10: G (7656) B posts big blind (200) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to Hero [ 9s, 9d ] Villain calls (200) C folds. D folds. E folds. Hero ????

Re: 99 shortstacked
You're on the short stack with 99... push it.

Re: 99 shortstacked
1)push
2)push people don't limp big hands as often as you'd think-- if for no other reason than they don't <i>have</i> big hands that often-- and as a short stack you can't go looking for a reason to fold a hand as good as 99.

Re: 99 shortstacked
I pushed (no brainer there), F called, villain also called, they checked it down, F turned over AQo & Villain had TT (I won with a straight on the river).
I've been wondering since about Villain's play, I suppose his logic was to fold to a big stack's bet, call any of the smaller stacks and try for a set otherwise. Not sure I like it though.

Re: 99 shortstacked
I would...
1) Push 2) Cry a river, build a bridge, and push myself off of it. Will

[/ QUOTE ] with his stack size i think its a decent limp with the intent to call a small stacks push, and maybe do a limp-reraise against a bigger stack if its an aggressive big stack who likes to raise limpers. sometimes limping with hands like TT from EP at this stage will cause your opponents to play incorrectly vs. you (FTOP-wise) while raising from EP will cause them to play more correctly.
