I just busted out of Party's... after only about 25 minutes LOL.

My KK vs 33 on a 397 flop or some such thing.

I'm slightly above average in Stars.

Decided not to play the bigger tourneys today, but I am in the 150K on Paradise and the 2nd chance on Stars.

Lost a lot of chips in the Stars tourney when JJ lost to AQ all-in preflop.

Now sitting with 2893 about to play 100/200/10 blinds and antes.

After I got knocked out in the 500 FPP WSOP tournament ( where I had a nice streak of AK losing to A rags all in preflop of 5 in a row vs smaller chippers), I watched you for a bit. Was surprised you didnt shove all in preflop on that last hand. Also, this hand made me wonder what you call a raise with 30% of your chips and then fold to another persons all in

I had 88 that hand.  After a player moves all-in after a preflop raise, and then a call of that preflop raise, I put him on TT-AA.

As for the AQ hand, if I had a shorter stack, I would have pushed.  I just didn't feel great about moving in for 20XBB preflop with AQ... seemed a little excessive.

Cheers,
Devin

Looks like a call with 88 there. Certainly AK is also in his range and probably at least AQs so you've got the odds to call getting 2:1. Also, I would just push over the first raise. Out of Dise bricking 12 outs twice against a fairly weak call of my checkraise all-in. Hanging around in the 2nd chance on Stars.

Fair enough. But, I still think he had TT - AA. We will never know. If we include AK and AQ as his possible holdings, he has:

TT, JJ, QQ, KK, AA, AK, AQ

I am crushed by 5 of his holdings, and racing against the other two. I don't love that situation. I don't think we can widen his range of hands any more than that, because he was not desperate at 15XBB, and I doubt it was a "move" after the raise and the cold call ahead of him.

As for just moving all-in over top of the original raise, I wanted to see a flop without an ace or a king on it before committing the rest of my stack.

That's how I roll!

But, your arguments are valid... different strokes, different folks, and all that jazz.

SirWatts

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 34.8782 % 34.68% 00.20% { 8c8d }
Hand 2: 65.1218 % 64.92% 00.20% { KK-TT, AQs+, AKo }

So it's a call against this very tight range getting 2:1. If we put 99 in his range i think we should also include AQo and then it's even better.

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 35.6410 % 35.43% 00.21% { 8c8d }
Hand 2: 64.3590 % 64.15% 00.21% { 99+, AQs+, AQo+ }

Occasionally we'll pick off a squeeze play from something like AJs or maybe even 77 when we're lucky, so overall this isn't a greatspot but I think it's too good to pass up on.

Damn you and your... fancy... math.... stuff....

Yeah I probably would push with 88 after the first raise, but in this case I would call that guys allin. AK and AQ are definite possibilities, I woudlnt even really call it a "move", racing with dead money is a great situation to be in for AK.
