Woodie Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game blinds are 80/160?? some numptys raised pre flop 6x the bb?? and someone else has re raised. Easy fold imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba_SamPa Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game Woodie, the first all-in was a short stack shove of 7-ish x BBs, and the reshove was JJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warbirds Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game The first guy open pushes with 6bb, nothing wrong there imo Teaulc, I would have folded after the initial all in is called by someone else. While you have a good hand it's not a world beater and there's little chance you're dominating both hands. You have a good stack and will find better spots where you will have the initiative Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePokerPad Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game I think it was the correct decision but just, i think you would were getting good value, but given your position in the game at the time there were probably better spots to pick especially with the stack you had, also the players were not that loose (well most of them anyway ;)).

runadrum Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game All the action is preflop and, even though you would still have been sitting with $5k plus, I would have folded too unless the opposition had both already been playing loose up to that point - and if I'd been on a bit of a 'hit everything' roll too - then I would probably have joined in. This one hand in isolation ? - easy fold Full history of the game ? (which I don't want to see !) - decision might be different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieGaz Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game I'm almost always calling here.... even if you lose you've still got 5k and with blinds at 80/160 that's still a really big stack. There are very few hands that have you crushed (AK/AA/KK/QQ) and I'm happy to take the gamble here and hope that I'm racing for a nice pot! :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McG Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game I know I shouldn't, but I agree with Runa's suggestion that, if you're "feeling hot/invincible", these seem to be easier calls. That said, you then probably feeling bad about not calling, and might have brooded over what might have been. It's gone, move on. The other reason for not calling was that Ratman was sat behind you with $6.5k+, and could have put you in an even trickier position by shoving. I think you made the right decision, despite how it turned out :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trips Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game first all in would be an easy call,i would need a read on the isolation all in before calling, but still nothing wrong in calling as long as you dont mind gambing.prob up against at a pair or a9+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
averick Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game Not a tourney player but like the rest have said, it would be an easy call against the initial shover, but you're going to need a read on villain's tendencies to call/reraise. Any important point to consider is the fact that you're not the last to act which makes flatting slightly riskier as you won't be happy if the SB (who can hurt you with his stack) repops it.

BAM Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Re: hand from last nights PL game explain pls :ok Its in poker chat and you ask a rhetorical question hence no reply needed - you fold. If this was a strat question I would advise you to call, fist pump and maybe a little chair spin :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
