Here's the info. Top 3 Get a $12k wsop package. We are down to about 100 out of 750. I've seen villain reraise about 4
times in last hour with AQ or AK From BB. Then proceed to bet big, or
shove it in, vs a smaller stack, after whiffing the flop. He's playing
a very aggressive game. I had already checked one of the data sites for everyone at my table, and this guy has only played about 17 tourney's since Jan
2009, but they were all bigger buy in events. 11 were $215 buy ins, one was a $650 buy in, one was a
$162 buy in, and the last few were mostly $55 buy ins. He has 2 money finishes in those events, both for only about $1500. Now this hand comes up.

Ez Duzit99: ??? I
turn to my friend watching me play, and say, "I'm 90% sure he has
either AK or AQ."
I'm thinking about it as the timers going, and it
just seems too much like he doesn't want a call. So should I make this
call or not, based on my read, which I am very confident in?

|

if you put him on AK its a snap call..
|
|
|
|
I think if your very confident in your read he has nothing then yea its a call.

What was your plan when you flatted 5k pre with a 25k stack?
If you don't know that, don't flat 5k pre with 66 with a 25k stack.
|
|
|

Sounds like you're pretty sure about this. Gut instincts are key here, so if your gut is screaming that he whiffed, stick it in.
|
|
|
|
you should be folding preflop to the utg raise imo.

If you don't know that, don't flat 5k pre with 66 with a 25k stack.
Actually, that was exactly my plan. I would have reraised any bet all in, on any flop with no Q, K, or Ace. With a Q or above on the flop I shut down without a set. That was my plan. But when he shoved, I asked myself how confident I was on my read, and I was actually pretty sure.

It's kind of wishful thinking, and I'd say the chances of AK AQ is a bit lower than 90, but if you are flatting this with the intention of calling on that type of flop you got to follow through. You are going to have to take some chances with only 3 people getting a seat, it's not the worst stab in the world.

ok well i guess flatting the 1k is fine but once its 3bet to 5k you have to fold there. you really cant put 1/5th of your stack in pre if youre set mining.

It doesn't sound like he's set mining though, he's going to go with it on a lot of different types of flops.

i just think your comitting too much of your stack to hope certain cards dont hit the flop. I dont really think you can put villain on only AK/AQ here. Over cards are going to hit the flop almost every time and he probably is going to cbet every flop and you just have no idea where youre at.

Fold Pre......you aren't getting the correct implied odds to be set mining in MP w/ 25BB's

yeah thats what i thought at first but i looked at the hh again and we have 51 bbs here

One thing that doesnt make sense to me is if you are 100% sure he has AK/AQ then why not just get it in preflop? Why put in 1/5th of your stack pre only to fold on a lot of flops?
