Do 2/5 players fold TPWK here? OP hasn't been representing anything anyone should be afraid of, even if one of the other players is good enough to lay their hand down. [/ QUOTE ] The good ones probably laydown Qxs without a back door flush draw. The action is you with two people already all-in, do you go to the felt with TPWK if there is still one person left to act behind you? |

Re: 2/5NL live - JTs
What if the other people are playing bigger hands tricky? They want to get all the money of the crazy guy. I think you might be step into a minefield and the raise can get you into the trouble. Just call and try to see the next two cards as cheap as possible. You're likely in a for a tough decision on the turn or river....if LP didn't just re-pop you right there.

Re: 2/5NL live - JTs
Could be possible they are sand-bagging, but it's more likely they have crap.
Regardless his decision is easy in later streets or if raised. From his last post LP had 300 and the other dude less so he calls anything further no way he folds after his raise. |

Re: 2/5NL live - JTs
I like the idea. But 250 is not nearly enough. Further your stack is to small to make it 400 to go (which is what I think you would have to do to succeed). Given all these factors I dont like the play and suggest just calling. Like I said if you had 1200 or more than I make it 400-450 to go.

Re: 2/5NL live - JTs
there's no way these guys don't raise if they have something...and the bet was so small in relation to the pot that they're calling with pretty much anything they limped in with.
they both folded, turn and river blank, and WAG2 takes it down with A2o. i didn't show. |

EDIT: i made my bet based on the pot size, but i really could have made it $300 or whatever, which would have put the remaining people all in. shrug, i don't think it matters much. |

Re: 2/5NL live - JTs
I'm a little confused here. Why would you want to isolate with anyone with your hand right here? Even if WAG has a naked King he is close to even money with you at this point. If you hit, you most likely have the nut straight so why do you want everyone else out? are you afraid of getting bet out of the pot on the turn? I think just because someone is crazy doesn't mean he never has a hand here. He would need to have absolutely no hand for you to be way ahead of him right here. If you had a chance to take down the whole pot (meaning that WAG is not all in) this would be a good play, but in this case, I just call here.
Whats worse, in this case someone else in here could be slowplaying a set to the turn, or be a donkey and not lay down a Q to anything here. BTW, this is why I try to cultivate a wild agressive table image and raise with weird hands (not saying the maniac in this thread is doing this), people tend to think just because I make plays with nothing that I NEVER get a hand. |

Re: 2/5NL live - JTs
I was thinking about this, and I'm not sure why everyone is advocating isolating either.
I think you're likely to lose this hand if you are heads up against the all-in, UNLESS you hit your hand. If you hit your hand, you want those callers in anyways. Basically, whether you call or reraise, you're investing that $35. However, by raising, you negate the opportunity to make more money when you hit but yet your chances of winning the $35 doesn't increase. |
