I like when DrStrange does this, so hopefully he won’t mind me borrowing his idea.
We are playing a $20 tourney with 20 minute levels, currently at 50-100. We are just before the break, about 24 people left in the tournament. I was one of the villains, you are the HERO in the BB with QdJd.
In general - - - Everyone at the table knows everyone well. We have thousands of hours of play time together. Table talk is common and greatly exceeds the notion of "one player to a hand", though for big pots there will be a little bit more discretion. (This is word for word what DrStrange says about his place, applies here as well)
SB: Bud Light. $4400. Supertight player, biggest nit/rock in the tourney. One of two big drinkers.
BB: (Hero) $9800. Pretty LAGgy, is also the director.
UTG: Cecil. $3900. OMC, thinks he plays tight, but nothing like SB.
UTG+1: Black Cloud. $1600. LAGgy player, complaining about being card dead all night. Recently lost a big pot to BB.
MP1: Marine. $15600. Current chip leader, plays a very aggressive loose game. Also is a joker/friendly guy.
MP2: Ninja. $2900. Just joined table, but hasn’t uttered a word in the 20 minutes he’s been there.
CO: Punky. $3200. Another power drinker. Passive and loose, fun player to be at table with.
Button: TheChad. $9200. Pretty strong TAG, might think he’s a little better than he actually is. Some history: Lost the previous hand to the Hero holding KQ for a pair of kings, when an Ace spike on the river. Folded to Heros all in bet. Hero showed bluff.
You’re the hero with Q
J
, in the BB.
The hand:
Limp from MP1. CO limps. The button raises to $600. Sb1 calls.
Action is on Hero, should he fold, call, or raise? If raising, how much?
