This hand is from the 100r on PS tonight. Crisper had limped twice before but hands never went to showdown. What's sick here is instead of jamming, I decide to open raise, leaving myself with 8k behind at 1k bb... pukenation.... thoughts?

Probably not, but possible...consider the big stack raises with a PP to bully, and than other guy pushes w/ AK.
Doubtful, but impossible to fold IMO -
Isn't this a shove from the get go? Over 1/4 your stack is in the pot before you even act. I don't think folding is an option considering your stack size.
-
well tbh i dont think its as cut and dry. I mean I think I look really strong by not jamming to begin with, with my stack.. now we have breda essentially min 3 betting after a limper and a raise.. and then crisper still decides to limp come over the top.....normally this would be a pretty easy fold for me....but the reason i am posting is because of the stack situation. Do I still call off even if I am sick to my stomach 99% sure crisper has AA or KK? Can I have more thoughts please?
-
I think you're 99% sure because you called and he had AA or KK...yes?
I stand by my call -
Can't figure out for the life of me why you're not shoving here initially. You're just turning your hand face up in a tough tournament - can't be a good play long term. As played let out a short sigh and call.
-
very easy call, I think both ranges are wider than u think, and I think a shove is much better than the 3x off that stack size
-
why exactly do u want to look stronger w/ qq here

k so in hindsight.. I agree that I should have just jammed pre after the limper, because anything else makes my hand look hella strong, and in the long run this is optimally the best line.. since i will get called by much lighter if i just jam vs donkopenraising announcing to the table I HAVE A BIG PAIR....
but as played, I still like my fold. I would not fold QQ every time in this spot either, its just that i was sooooooooooooo sure....but I guess that 'feeling' is hard to explain?
Believe me, I am not trying to find reasons to fold QQ rofl...
Ironically, I got QQ a few hands later and jammed in 7 bb .. got called by AK and lost the race.... -
uhm???
if no one put really funky drugs in my coffee im 100%sure 1sek before i quoted your post you had JhJc lolz -
def don't want to look stronger and ultimately i now see my mistake by even open raising to begin with... but i was moreso saying that by doing this i did look so silly strong and still all this action behind me ensued etc....

Agreed. No reason to "look strong" with QQ's and a 12BB stack. After Crisper limps there is no reason to not ship it all. It allows you to:
A. win the pot without a showdown and increase your stack by roughly 25%.
B. Get called light by someone behind you, or the limper. In which case you are very likely to have the best hand.
C. Set up your image so later you can do the same thing with a strong hand and get called light by someone tired of your aggressive play.
With the action as stands, you insta call and see what happens. It's hard to know where the limper is at without prior knowledge of what he's been limping earlier on during play, or without playing with him before in past MTT's. Is he a high stakes MTT reg? What are his OPR results? If you get it in her and he ends up have AA or KK then so be it, it's a cold deck, it happens.
I also agree with the statement that both players ranges are much wider then you might think in this spot, espcially the limpers. I think his range includes hands like 10's, JJ's, AK, AQ, which we are way ahead of.
It's the $100 rebuy and people are fiesty online, get it in there and hope for the best. -
Uh i scanned thru all the posts real quick and i dont really see any posts that say shoving isnt the best play. ppl are just responding to the hand AS PLAYED but obv shoving is the optimal play pre...

You get your money in there slappy. Unfortunately you will be behind most of the time, but then you can type "fkn rigged a$$ BS site" in the chatbox, among other things when you start your tyrrade.

Shove pre. Only play. As played, still shove. You have outs and while I never do it, I see my opponents do it to me all the time getting it in behind and binking a queen to crack my aces. Playing by feel is negative ev and the math doesn't lie. Don't become results oriented. The next time I am sure you will triple up and take down the 100r.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I dont understand why you want to look strong with a good hand deep in this mtt. And with 8bb left with 40k in the pot.... youd be a fool not to call just because of the odds. Win and you have serious potential of running deep in this. Lose and close the table and yell at yourself. Play to win... when you have 8bb left.... Your just delaying the inevitable. -
You have to understand you are being results orientated here. You said that you realize you made a mistake by not just jamming preflop, but you must also realize you made an even bigger mistake by raise/folding your 12.8 bb stacksize with QQ when the pot was giving you just under 5 to 1 odds. If you had jammed pre and ran into KK, would you have told yourself you should have raised/folded like you did in this situation???? Even if the pot was offering you much less than 5 to 1 here, you still can not EVER raise/fold that stacksize, especially when there was a limper in front which forced you to make a slightly larger than normal opening raise to 4.3x, rather the more standard 2.2x-2.7x at this stage of the tournament.

DO NOT BE RESULTS ORIENTATED, JAM PREFLOP, UL, GOOD GAME -
you need 26% to call...
Hand 0: 33.102% 32.41% 00.69% 348287304 7446638.67 { QcQs }
Hand 1: 24.500% 20.27% 04.23% 217836354 45455498.67 { JJ+, AQs+, AQo+ }
Hand 2: 42.399% 38.72% 03.68% 416125498 39519842.67 { KK+, AKs, AKo }
if crisper is only getting it in with kk+ you can fold
Hand 0: 15.279% 15.03% 00.25% 69241014 1131648.00 { QcQs }
Hand 1: 22.644% 20.96% 01.68% 96543120 7749894.00 { JJ+, AQs+, AQo+ }
Hand 2: 62.076% 60.50% 01.58% 278631768 7275900.00 { KK+ }
but anyone who limps kk/aa in that spot is probably doing the same thing with ak so i'm never folding.
shove pre tho -
Going out on a limb, lets just say he was getting less than 26% based on our reads b/c we are almost sure he is on KK+. Is it really still optimal to raise/fold that stacksize when the pot is giving you 5 to 1 this late in the tournament?
