v low content, some tourny hands

phantom_lord

this is the only hand i'm interested in really. I'm not deep enough to call, not shallow enough to shove, and I think the hand's too good to fold. + i hate cold calling.

7 handed.

I've 17k, he covers. fairly solid, maybe raises oop too much.

Blinds 4/8


utg+1 makes it 2k, I have 77 and repop it to 6k(?) next to act





79o.

blinds 500/1

I've about 9.5k in the sb.

2 limpers. i could shove but I don't think I've any fe against these two.


I complete (?),

flop: qj10

checked around.

Turn:

8

checked around.

river

q

I check(?)




12k

blinds 800/1.5

a8o.

mp makes it 3k. only at the table 15-20 mins, haven't seen him show any cards, no idea wwhat the min raise means. he has 30k

next to act I shove (?)

Hand 1 is a weird sort of situation. I suppose the key question is are you prepared to call if he shoves.Over 1/3 of your chips are in there already so... I probably would anyway.
I think your play is good though as you have position if he just calls and you are a bit deep to just push

I bet the about 2000 on the turn in hand 2. You probably get a caller with a King and he's worst than 5-1 to hit it

I probably fold hand 3

hand 1: meh, dont like the re-raise, im probably folding pf here. youve still got quite a bit to play with, committing a third of your stack with the raise and now your going to be getting ~ 2-1 to call if he shoves.

hand 2: i probably just stick it in on the turn or river

hand 3: i was at this table for a while before you got here and Ax/any 2 paint/low pairs are within his min-raise range. had been min raising alot all night and folding to shoves so im shipping it.

I wouldnt raise hand 1, I might call if i thought the table were full of stations. Are you just going to shove any flop if you get called? Do you want to ship it in if he pushes? Whats his stack size? I would fold if the table was tight.

bet turn.

I would prefer a bit of information on the villain.

pretty sure it was the dcu rebuy last night, maybe not though. makes no difference i suppose

hand 1: villain is too good and pretty too to even consider reraising his opening raise is madness.....for shame

hand 2: yeah to be honest i think i would have lead the turn or at least have a little pop on the river but with that board if you get reraised big on the river you have a tough decision

hand 3: that was just unlucky the way that tourney is played he turns over a worse ace then yours 50% of the time UL.

I don't like this. You calling if he sets you in? What if he calls and leads out at the flop. What flops are you folding? It's a bad spot, and I don't like calling here myself - but it probably beats folding or raising.

Bear in mind that a 4k bet if he checks the flop to you is going to have a lot of FE on a variety of flops - and is probably a better use of your money. Some people will go all the way with hands pre - flop that they will give up on quickly if they miss the flop and are facing resistance.

I don't expect him to call, I'd expect him to shove or fold, folding a lot more than shoving. and I'd fold to the shove. That's why I'm unsure about the hand.

table's not tight, he has about 22k after the raise I think.

I don't really know much about him, never played him before. He raised pf and took it down was the only thing I've seen him do. not enough time at the table to get any reads. seems pretty poor.

I meant that I would need more info to make this play, its not bad but i need to know he can fold and has a wide range in ep.
