Hey all, played a 570 at turning stone today with some questions about hands.
H1- ok we start with 30k, it’s 25-50 and first level is 5-6 handed. Ok so mawg limps from utg (seems super rec and rich/ well off), I look at a-10o and pop it to 200. All folds mawg calls, we see A-10-5(r). Check, I bet 300, he calls. Turn k. Check, I bet 1k and he calls. River is a 10. Check, I bet 8k (2.5x pot) and he says call and mucks. Is this sizing fine on river? I’m not sure if turn was a k looking back but river was 10 and I thought we might as well go big if we don’t expect too many calls to maximize value when Villian does call.
H2- ok we have 38k at 200/400 (400) and we open 10-10 to 1200 from 3-4 off button. Small blind 3bets to 3600 on 30k stack. Bb fold, I flat. Small blind is tourny reg that says he is on 2nd bullet... seems like he can 3bet wider than standard live mtt players so I flat. Flop is 9-3-2 with 2 spades. Villian cbets 6k into 8k pot. I flat. Turn is a 5 of spades. Villian checks. Ok what do we do here? I elected to check back as I felt Villians range is going to be a lot of Aq+ jj+. River is a 4 (not spade) and Villian bets like 60-80% pot and I just fold. He shows ak. Do I ever bet turn here? I thought this hand was super awkard to play and not sure what we do on turns here. I felt checking back turn here may have been awful but not sure. I don’t remember if I had a 10s but I think I didn’t.
H3- much later in tourny, I have Jc-10c at 1-2k(2k bb ante) and 28-30k. I wanna say we were 4 off button. I raise to 4K, and kinda tight older woman jams maybe 30k and I sigh fold. I looked at snap shove and it said ripping j-10 suited here was +chips. Do I just jam here? Looking back, raise folding this on this stack is pathetic and should be a fold or shove but please let me know this is correct.
H4- final hand to discuss- we spun up 20k to 64k just from jams going well and still fairly short. 64.2k at 1200-2400 (2.4k bb ante). Ok I’m cutoff at 7 handed table, I open kc6c to 5k and man from hand 1 ( now we consider him mawg semi splashy rec- he’s weak tight i would say but semi splashy) flats on button on maybe a 100-130k stack. Flop is k-10-6 with 2 spades. We Cbet 6k into 16k pot, he raises to 15k. What do we do here. I’m going to post results and what we do in spoiler hidden. I found this spot kinda odd but will explain my thought process in spoiler. Please explain what you think we should do and why and then let me know if my thoughts are ok or I’m just a fishcake.
250 hands from last week-
H1- ok I have 28k at 200/400 (400bb ante) and mawg Rec that has.m been tight so far but weak tight opens to 1400 from mp3. I’m in cutoff one to his left and have kk. (He starts hand with 12-14k). I 3bet to 4800. I felt his sizing was super odd and a mid strength hand he doesn’t want to fold. All folds. He flats, flop is 225 and he open rips. I insta call and he has a-10o (live poker is still kicking). We end up losing lol. Just wondering if my sizing pre is good? I feel going a little over 3x his open may be bad but just wanna hear thoughts. I feel maybe I should go 2.7-3x to get calls more often pre but please let me know what your thoughts on this sizing are.
The 1400 open really made me think he had a vulnerable hand he liked but didn’t wanna see a flop with like 99-jj.
H2- ugh I have 20bbs 8 handed at 300-600 (600). I open JQo from utg+2 to 1200, button flats, sb flats, bb flats. Flop is Q45 and small blind is a nitty old woman and donk leads like 75%pot. Bb fold, I sigh flat, button folds. Turn is a 5, she leads like 7k and I just plop 8.1k in and she calls with kq and we lose.
Here is just sigh I know what I did but wanna hear it. On 20bbs from ep, jqo is a simple fold correct? I felt like an idiot after this hand bc I feel this is a fold from ep on shallow stack and we just punted postflop against a nit that we should prolly just fold to her donk lead bc it’s obv she has us beat. Thanks for Feedback on these hands.
