darbday;271649 wrotejust under 40%? :p

the other hand wasn't a 3 bet bluff...just remember thinking id rather be soooted....

lol..yeah yeah....I like soooted too. Seriously though..just a bad read with that other hand. I think I take too many chances heads up. Once I get heads up more, I will work on that ;)

DennisG;271642 wroteThe way he hesitated before calling the preflop raise just made me think he didn't have much...and that flop...what hands has he hit there that he calls the preflop raise oop vs. utg nit with? JJ and 99? Unless he has either of those hands, or AA/KK (-edit- I think these are out of the range...which I think he reraises pre) he has to fold to a jam on the flop, no? If he has AK, he folds to my jam, if he has 1010, he folds...88 he folds..maybe he had the same hand?

My thinking at the time was call this and jam if he checks the turn..

My final hand still has me thinking... Blinds were 4k/8k +ante, I started with 97k in the SB. K7o. Folds around to HJ or CO and min raise to 16k, button calls 16k, (both are bigger stacks, 250k+) I jammed here thinking that I would only be against one of them, and full well knowing one would call, likely the button as the original raiser doesn't know what the button is gonna do..and he can be plenty wide enough here, with the dead money, that I can jam with my K7....Am I out to lunch?

Not out to lunch, I think some assumptions are def optimistic tho. He doesn't really need a hand as strong as JJ or 99, donks overplay top pair no kicker all of the time, but if we take a hand that's about the bottom of our range (not our pre-flop raising range, but A-high is obviously near the bottom of our range post flop) and start continuing with it, it actually makes it correct for him to check-raise his JT type hands here since we're continuing with so many worse hands. Without a very strong read it is fine to just c-bet/fold here, you don't have to win every pot that you open, especially when your hand has little to do with the board. Also you describe yourself as an UTG nit. This read is only relevant if he has this read as well. We can't really think "what hands is he playing vs. me knowing that I'm so nitty" when he might not actually know that. Maybe he's watching TV or talking to people and not even paying attention. It's a big mistake to factor in our perceived range/image if we are not even sure that the villain perceives at all.

For the last hand, that's definitely spew. I can't really remember the last time I reshipped K7o, let alone so short with another caller. When you are shoving a hand that's behind their calling range, you need fold equity in order to make up for the chips you lose when you get called. If you expect them never to called, where is the profit coming from? You estimate there to be around 36k dead money in the pot (either the raiser or caller for 16k, and the blinds + antes for ~20k), yet when you get called you have around 30% equity, meaning if you're risking 97k to win the pot, there needs to be ~100k dead money, not 36k (assuming you have no FE, if you're a 2:1 equity, you need to be getting 2:1 with the dead money). So yea, hopefully you can see that although it seems like a good spot to reship, you actually need a muuuch better spot in order for K7o to be a reship, one that basically doesn't exist in online tournaments (super loose opening + super tight calling don't usually go hand in hand when you can click button and gamboool).

This puts things more in perspective. Less tuna for me.^-^
