I've seen that move before and I just don't understand it by villain. Why call a r/r only to lead out on turn?

[HighwayStar 8]

^^Reads like a weak king. Only one that really fits is KT (maybe KQ, unlikely give you have 2), simply can't be AK. A made hand, 44? Although would think that would reraise the flop given the drawy nature of it.Could be a 9 hit also (A9?).Read on player?Like the RR on the flop, but if you are gonna RR maybe make it more, say 900? I dunnoI suck at playing QQ on Axx, Kxx flopsProbably fold the turn.AlsoTournies > Cash games.Was 4 Buy Ins up at 25NL this morning after 200 hands, 4 tabling taking it seriously.Then 2 outer after 3 o uter kept hitting and I'm down to even after 500 hands. Seriously some people suck.CG ftl.1111th post!

You really have to go broke in that spot, but I may have raised the flop with such a draw heavy board.

i don't understand the flop raise. of course he's betting redic. low, but if you think he's bluffing just call down and if you think he'S semi bluffing raise way more. from what i see you're beat, i see him floating with a 9 on the flop and hitting his 2 outer on the turn. i think the river is a fold. the bets from him look kinda weak, however, they don't look weak like "i have nothing and am too stupid to bluff" but more like the "weak" you see of the usual tourney players (who have no idea about bet sizing obv.)

Pretty close but I think a good fold? The reraise shows you are at best a race against the big stack(read dependent but usually), and in a 3 way all - in a mid pair is rubbish.Given the turbo structure could be a shove but I doubt it.

i put the $55 win and the $75 3rd up on pxfPM me for the HHs if you are interested and want to review them

I am always folding 88 to a raise and a shove. Not sure what to do in turbos as you can't be as patient. But I think a fold is right.

hey guys, im a cash game player, but have had some success with mtts lately...and im taking the day off tomorrow while traveling to foxwoods, so im throwing a few stakes out there for dedicated poker players in need of a shot at a bigger score. im gonna give 3 stakes out for the 27.50 at 9pm eastern tomorrow (wednesday) to whoever thinks they deserve it, and can convince me of that. i'll reply when i wake up, and ship money tomorrow evening. glglJesse

Hello deuces,I probably don't desevre the stake but I'll try. Been trying for that big score for a long time but still no luck. It seems I always bust on one fateful hand that I shouldn't. Like reshoving 88 when I know I should fold etc. I've been trying to work on that and I think have that leak fixed. I have other leaks like playing out of my BR which actually got my broke on FTP. Lesson learned there. To all those trying to do it bad idea. It may work a few times but when it doesn't it hurts bad. Well it's time for me to go to work. Later all. S/n is ThePhoenix88 (vero beach)

Hi deuces. I find myself to be a break-even/slightly winning online MTT player as my OPR stats show. I have had a couple final tables for smaller tournaments, but don't feel i have the courage to play a buyin larger than $10 on my own dime. I feel I am nitty with my $200 online bankroll. I do however play $50 live tournaments and reach the final table half the time of 100+ player fields. I feel my skill would be shown greatly if I were to play in the 27.50 tournament as I thrive off of experience and other player's teachings. I feel a big score is what I need to start my online bankroll and a chance like this would do just that!If I am fortunate enough to be chose my sn is ko8e34Good luck to you on the felt!

Dueces, it depends on what your goals are. If it is to help an up and comer, pick someone else. If it is to win quite a bit of cash, then NNB is by far the most positive EV you can have.
