    What Would You Do?

    in Tournament Play

    Posted

    I played a small home game tournament (about 8 people) the other day and this hand has been bothering me a bit.. Im just curious as to how you all think you could extract the most amount of chips from my opponent.Points to consider:- This is the very first hand of an 8-man SNG.- The villain does not get out of line when i make early position raises (especially early in the tournament)...that means smooth calling with small pairs and AQ AK.I'm first or second to act and there is no one else involved in the hand other than the blinds. The blinds are at 25/50 with starting chips of 4000. I raise 4x the big blind to 200 total and it folds around to the villain who is on the button/one of the button. I would say that i have a pretty solid read on the villain. He gives me a lot of respect when i raise from early position and i know he's putting me on a respectable hand. Taking this into consideration, he raises 500 more to make it 700 total. The blinds fold and its up to me. I take a minute or two to decide that he has me beat and i lay the jacks down face up (i wouldn't do this in a real tournament :club:). He laughs and flips over a pair of queens. Now i know i made the right fold, but since we're playing a friendly game here the dealer decides to show the flop. the flop would've came out J A 7 rainbow. If you had played the hand, and you are quite confident that your opponent has either a pair of queens or a pair of kings (ruling out aces here), what would your post-flop play be here if your trying to extract the maximum amount of money.

    Am I this horrible at poker now or are we never ahead? What do we beat that gives us action here? JJ or QQ, I guess, but they would probably have 3bet pf (especially with those stats). QJs is the only reasonable possibility considering action on every street.
    Assuming that he isnt playing on tilt i highly doubt QJs would be played like that by anyone who knows how to play this game.
