mid stages, I think we had recently lost 2 players and the tables hadn't been balanced yet.

Would you just flat the river rather than raise for value, my check on the turn for deception made me want to go for value on the river

It's the nighty thirty grand $55 late game ~60 players remaining, avg ~39k.
6 hands before Villain opened from utg (sizing 2.6k) with 66 and 35bb. He called the 11bb CO's reshove.
What's your decision now?

fold

This is from the $5 2r1a, Villain is 14/7/2.1 over 111, btn is quiet/abc and BB is running 32/5 over 60 hands. just wondering what the best option is preflop?thanks

Flat with that HUD data on villain.

Shove in 5$

hi, this is from the 11rb on stars. limper is a small-mid stakes weak semi regular player running 24/19/7.3 over 89 hands, while co is decent supernova. I cant remember the limper really getting out of line and really didnt expect a jam from him. I havent really got out of line either previous to this.

Are people happy to 3b/c here pre flop?

Thanks

This is from the $11rb and villain is 20/13/3.5 with a cb% of 75 over 299 hands, not sure how many were for the session, but he seemed relatively straight forward and is blocked on opr.

I'm not sure if this is too ambitious to try and get villain to fold 99-AA or ax on the river? I don't expect him to check Qx on the flop multiway

thanks

Villain hasn't been too wild but wouldn't call nit, first time he shipped bvb vs me.

What range are we giving villain/what should we call with? Feel like we can tighten up a little bit and fold some of more marginal stuff for stack preservation. I think his range is weighted towards 22-88 more than anything.

Would get it in, villain of those stats isn't likely to limp AA to get value with a back raise.


Too optimistic when clubs miss.

AQ 88 as a guess.

I'd go 77/AJ at the tightest and doubt I'd fold 66 and ATs in-game

12 or 13 left in the 5 2r1a. The bb is a guy who is staked by someone I know and I assume is a decent player. sb i know nothing about, played also decent as far as i could tell.



I think we can remove all sets, straight and jx+ from bbs range, so if the pot was heads up its a snapcall right? bit worried about sb.

I'd bet turn slightly bigger % of pot and river slightly smaller, but that may just be personal taste. I think anything IR checks through on that board has to whiff flop, btn is the only one I'd be concerned with checking through an 8x or weak QTs type hand that flatted pre, but once he folds turn I'd imagine IR's calling range is alot of AT+ and 99-JJ, I think it's reasonable he folds that to two bets (granted for some reason your sizing looks odd to me so I'd be inclined to call vs you, but that aside).

Then I saw his hand and was shocked

this is from the $33 3k on stars, around $900 ftw, $600 or so for 2nd and $440 i think for third.

villain is decent midstakes reg

not sure the best way to play this, jam flop? bet turn? not sure what I rep on river, (bdf, 67, 8T, missed diamonds) that would play the hand like I did on flop and turn.

I feel his range is also weak enough, considering the small cb and not betting turn.

thanks

I don't play on merge, but would prob go with ATo, 66+ here, without better reads. Depends a bit on how you are perceived and what you think his competency level is, aswell as softness of the rest of the field, although imo that is the smallest consideration here.

Without even stoving it I think it's a snapshove. Especially considering you have bd hearts. May be a bit closer without. He should be containing AA as top of his range and only some of the time. Even then you have around 40%, which makes it profitable. You will also fold out a lot of SBs value range, because of the multiway all in.

I would r/c flop most of the time. Flop shove is not too bad either. Your line makes no sense since you check back turn, and a better reg should see through it most of the time. Especially since people dare to do more shorthanded and bvb. It looks pretty much like a deperation move with your stack, and you only fold out pure bluffs. As played just fold river. You got to see all the cards and missed your monster draw, so fold.

check flop.

Hi, OR is a good reg, he runs something like 21/16, first time i see him isolating.
Limpers are std passive fish, what's your action ?

easy fold

Well, may be i should open a thread for this hand :/

This is to settle an argument – tbh I think this hand is pretty standard but would appreciate feedback

Live 27 BI, turbo format, about 8 hands played per blind level.

Blinds: 100/200

UTG + 1 ~ 18k chips, opens a wide range pre, plays fit or fold flop, has shown down Kjo, A3 o, in recent hands after he'd opened the pot. Has no sense of position.

SB ~ 27 k chips, makes huge overbets flop, flats a huge range preflop – pretty much all over the place, opens 6 X preflop then doesn't c bet with position, but then in other spots shoves all in with naked draws etc. Guess you'd describe the style as passive/aggressive.

Rest of the table – fairly tight and non-tricky, very fishy. 80% of the field will continue to limp with 5 BB etc with a huge range.


UTG + 1 opens to 800

I'm UTG + 2, with K9 cc and with about 23k, and 3 bet to 2100 as an iso.

SB flats, BB flats opener flats.

Flop is K93ss, pot is 8400,

Chcked to me I c bet 4600

SB snap shoves AI, having me covered. Other players fold.

Call or fold?

hero is dealt Q9 and opens to 3000 (?) - standard open for table
BB is the big stack at the table, has probably 70BB and flats
BB is a pretty straightforward, weakish player who calls too much preflop out of position, plays passive / a bit tighter postflop, have not seen him bluff at all, he became the big stack by calling OOP preflop with low pairs and flopping 2 sets and stacking overpairs.

flop 963 (6100)
BB checks, hero bets 4000, BB calls

i think he will call me here with a wide range, certainly any 9, many draws, lower PPs or a smaller piece of board, and sometimes A hi in addition to any overpair, 2pr or set. given stack sizes and history i could see him flatting anything maybe even up to JJ pre, and shipping with QQ+ AQ+ (certainly he ships some smaller PP down to like 88 or 77 at times but he could definitely flat his mid pairs pre also)

turn 6 (14100)
BB checks

This is so different than any MTT I've ever played in that I can't even begin to give you good advice in this situation.

so different how?
