They both know I'm a reg and delaney is very aggro. Do you think this is too optimistic even against very good players? (Can't try against non-elite players for sure obv)

Idea was to rep sets obv. I strongly doubt either of them thinks I anything less than AQ here ever and even with AQ it's kinda doubtful, pretty sure they see my range as sets, AA-KK. Kinda hard for me to have something random from their point of view.

Wispy will have to fold everything but non sets and I think delaney actually has a wide range, fairly sure he'll raise like JTs T9s 76s here, and then he has AA-KK AQ a lot too which should all hate their life after my weird flat imo? And I think it's a classic spot for him to bluff really.

Plan is to simply bet turn if it gets there hu and delaney checks, and otherwise just give up. Am I being too optimistic? Anyone prefer a cib?

seems spewy and optimistic to me. why are you convinced that wispy is almost always folding? seems like he'd be peeling all his gutters/etc and you are going to be 3way to a turn where lots of str8s get there and you have a pair of deuces.

edit oh this post is a level based on andres post from yesterday wooops.

uh oh

appropriate name

ITT we make misclicks and ask our friends if we can pass them off as legit strategy threads

although it may appear you may be onto something here,

lol

What do you do with 67 here? What about with 79/46/T9/J9/JT ?

I don't think you ever have AA/KK here

dumb idea

So what happened?

No money in MTTs, every reg's repping sets.

even if its a good spot to rep a set, why'd you do it with 22?

This. I haven't even really thought about the hand, but it seems like every hand in the deck has better equity, backdoor draws, and blockers for running a play like this.

agree

lol just fold

The plan was clearly to catch a deuce on the turn

just lol seeing stupid posts like this here

You're only repping sets since no one is ever going to give you credit for KK+.

When you see Chuck_Bass started a thread that says "I get an idea" you get your hopes up to see something astonishingly spewy. Have to say thread title delivers.

and then hell play 10/7 for the rest of the tournament

fyp

gotta have heart to play in the big leagues

actually like it, only not with 22
