Husker's...."you make the call"

HUSKER'66 · #1 06-21-2004, 05:55 AM

I thought it might be interesting to post some of the moves I see made in the one and two table sng's that I play in. The "game" is to use your online reading skills in guessing what the players in the hand have by their betting actions, position, etc, and to discuss your reasons for putting them on the hands that you did. Hopefully this will not only be fun but educational as well.

That being said, lets start with one I saw earlier tonight/this morning.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed)

saw flop|saw showdown

CO (t1140)
Button (t915)
SB (t1675)
BB (t2345)
UTG (t1405)
UTG+1 (t515)
MP1 (t2015)
Husker66 (t1435)
MP3 (t2055)

Preflop: Husker66 is MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, Husker66 folds, MP3 folds, CO raises to t60, Button folds, SB raises to t300, BB folds, CO calls t240.

Flop: (t630) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets t300, CO calls t300.

Turn: (t1230) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB checks, CO checks.

River: (t1230) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets t150, CO calls t150.

Final Pot: t1530
Main Pot: t1530 (t1530), between CO and SB. > Pot won by CO (t1530).

Results in white below: 
SB shows Td Ad (one pair, jacks).
CO shows Ac 6c (two pair, jacks and sixes).
Outcome: CO wins t1530. 

Should I have the results posted? Or would it be better to let you all take a stab at a guess and post the results later? Let me know.

Play well,

Husker

SB has AK or AQ, which makes his river bet completely inexplicable, as he has to figure his opponent has at least a pair, and has read his weak betting after the flop as overcards only. The huge preflop raise screams out "DON'T CALL ME!!!!", and the weak flop bet is just pitiful in its obviousness.

CO has either a small PP, A6s or A8s. I had thought maybe a jack on the flop, but the call on the river rules that out. Bigger PP would've reraised on the flop.

I had SB on pocket 10s and CO on Ace,King or Ace, 8

Could you introduce me to your friends "CO" and "SB"? I wouldn't mind playing a little poker with them.

BradleyT · #5 06-21-2004, 02:16 PM

Without looking I say AK vs. AK.

Edit: Is this a $5 buy-in or something?

CO A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Take that for what you will.

The neat thing about the converter is it puts the results in "white".(thanks Bison!) Left trigger on mouse and scroll down for results.

Now that you know are you as surprised as I was?

Ah......no.

Try A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] for SB and A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] for CO

Good guess though.

and yes to your second question....you can tell huh?

BlackAces · #8 06-21-2004, 08:16 PM

Yeah, I decided to look after I posted.

Nothing surprises me anymore. I will admit that I don't see play as breathtakingly bad as SB very much, though... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I'm going to assume it's a low buy-in SNG. CO has A8s, SB has QQ.

Err... QQ would have bet again on the turn. I'm dumb, and TT would be a better guess (although still wrong).
