  1. Curious as to how people would play this turn? Bet get it in? Check Shove? Shove? obv not bet folding on this stack.... thoughts?

    Player has been straightforward. Folded to 2 of my previous cbets and this time he decides to float me. Part of me thinks he would do this with 99 88 77 but I really didnt know what to do...

  2. probably should post this when people are actually online...... not on a friday night

  3. raise more pre...i'm not sure as to best play on turn.

    probably c/c, then b/f or c/c...i'm not that great at MTTs, but i'm probably not building a massive pot OOP on turn by betting.

    he could literally have ATC with the min raise though.
  4. c/c turn and c/c river imo
     
  5. I raise more than min pre tiger. You don't want too many callers with KK IMO. As played...... i c/c turn and c/c river. Not folding my hand here. IF he has the J god bless.

    BTW with his stack he could be floating anything here.
     
  6. can't imagine folding, so any line w/o folding would be okay i suppose. i'd probably just bet small/call. as for the raise pre, it's fine
     
  7. i'm fairly certain that he wasn't minraising to induce a bunch of calls, I'm pretty sure a min raise is his standard open. I would c/c turn and if he jams river, i can't see you having the best hand, all hands he might bet for value on the turn such as 55 - AA, a 6x suited type of hand, I don't think he bets the river with, I could be wrong but just my thoughts.
     
  8. Gotta say i admire the fact that you can even want to think about poker much less sweat a decision in an $11 MTT after bubbling the FT of the Sunday Million last week ffs.

    edit: as for the hand i'd bet more on the flop and shove the turn. Pot is already 3k on the flop so why not lead for 2kish and shove any turn if he flats?

  9. Yea min raise/2.2x is usually my standard sizing these days with my opens. As for the flop I cbet small to induce action cuz that board is absolutely sexy for my hand. The turn is weird because I don't want to call a turn bet if I'm going to fold a river (simply because its a significant portion of my stack in the pot already) ..... so I guess the best play would be to check slam or bet call.....

  10. Even though you put it in the title, I didn't even look at your stack.

    After seeing it, there's basically no way I'm folding at any point--so take the b/f out of my original post.

    I actually like your idea of c/rai on turn. If he checks behind, try to valuetown river??
