Jimako03 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I'm having a little disagreement with my friend with how i played this hand. There's 55ish people left in the tourney (10 dollar daily double jackpot tourney on FT). I'm sitting with 38k, blinds are 1k-2k and the 2 chip leaders of the tourney are at my table(being fairly aggressive). I'm in early position and I pick up AK and i raise it to 6k. One call from late position and then one of the chip leaders goes all in from the button. Now theres 56k in the pot and i have 32k left, with the blinds goin up to 2k-4k in 5 minutes. What do i do???Some more info...At this point of the tourney, everyone is just pickin up blinds. The chip leader had raised 4 of the last 9 pots. Link to post Share on other sites

sisass 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 ship.looks like a squeeze play on his part and you know his range is wide based on past raises and aggression. folding is weak cause youre only gonna have an M of like 5 at the next level. Link to post Share on other sites

If you make the correct decision every time you'll be in good shape. Link to post Share on other sites

rogerwilco 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Honestly....does it really matter??Yeah it matters, because ^this^ is all the discussion you'll get about the hand in "General Poker"... ;-)insta-call btw. Link to post Share on other sites

Dogpatch 2 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Honestly....does it really matter??I like seeing the occasional strat post in GenPo, so it doesn't REALLY matter. You would get less joke responses in the strat forum, so if you don't have a problem weeding through the minor flames and jopkes it doesn't matter.Call BTW. LOL at breaking your wrists "Helmuthing". As noted, you're 50/50 here so much. It's time to win a race or go home. You fold this and you'll be dying to pick up AK again so you can shovel it. Link to post Share on other sites
Mercury69 3 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 With AQ, I'm folding. With AK, I call. Against any pair opther than AA or KK, you're a 3:2 dog (I think). I say gamb00l. Link to post Share on other sites
