Comments
but i dunno its only 10bbs in a multi way pot with antes so it can't be that bad if it is.....
however on a board like this..he may c/r/f alot ...???
i think you played fine but pro not opening it oop unless i have a giant reason...
Ya, looking back at this one I didn't like it either. Guess in game I felt that his limping pre range shouldn't really be all that strongly connected with this board. Which turned out to be a bad assumption. He ended up limping AA in this one :mad: - not that the results really matter, cus like you said I think his range for limping pre, followed by checkraising this flop is actually quite strong. This guy (if I recall correctly) wasnt getting too out of line, but like this is the final table so I think he is prob capable of bluffing this sometimes?...
Yah wasnt sure here. Felt kinda bad to bet fold this, when I feel I have some showdown
Ahhhh, yes the old 'give em a walk' 3 handed. Not fond of it unless I have a bb who has shown he will play back at me. This was from a month ago, and I dont have my hud stats avail right now, but my guess is that I had history w him in these spots throughout the tourny and he showed he was folding a lot to my steals from sb. If he lets me do it a few times in a row, I just start doin it ~atc until he adjusts. Which is usually not happening in <$5 mtts. Maybe not a good idea, but I seem to recall a wise man on this forum once said he has not given a walk since 2005? Ever since then I have been doin this :-\
I think the fact that its 3 handed, I have a big chiplead, and the shorty folded already, deters the bb from playing this hand even more. So if he doesn't fold I can pretty comfortably get away without much harm done unless I smash the flop.
still tho ask others they may play em all different..
In other words 33 has showdown value vs. alot of situations but here I think we are looking at...
Hand 0: 38.506% { 3d3s }
Hand 1: 61.494% { 44+, AQs+, A8s-A4s, KQs, 98s, 87s, 76s, 64s+,
54s, AKo, A8o-A4o, KQo }
i dunno something like that....typically that is...he is ahead and you are drawing to a three or a 5.....
i wouldn't be opening atc vs alot of players because they mistakenly flat a lot....so if im going to say I never give walks...i ll raise something like....
Attachment not found.
and ya it could be wider but that range will get you in a lot less trouble....if you filter your stats by position you'll find you lose the most money out of the small blind....not you...but everyone.... ( and you :P)
also of course not raising atc and folding sometimes will help keep our villains range tight which might be important but i'm not saying it is....but theres def a balance to be had....
No I was referring to checking back the flop rather than cbet. Which would keep a lot of his Ax hands in that I have beat. But im guessing its more profitable to just cbet/fold than check back flop and have to guess when he leads the turn?
Yeah I think I just felt like three handed with these stack sizes, this wasnt as important as if it were earlier on with a full table? But that could be totally wrong way to look at it.
I feel ya on the balancing though.... Usually I would muck this without any reads, and would open somewhat similar to your above range. But I think this guy was folding like everytime I opened from sb up to this point.
