ChrisRichey 1 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Down to five in a $10 SNG. I have played hardly any hands. pretty card dead up till this point.

reedmcneal 0 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I think it's a bit too aggressive. Preflop raise was too small. I'd raise to 400-500. Continuation bet was too big. I think 1/2 to 2/3 the pot is fine. I probably don't push turn, but it's not horrible since he may have a flush draw. Link to post Share on other sites
XXEddie 0 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 what is he calling your flop bet with?Tx, A5, or some type of pocket pair. or a flush draw. If he didnt flop the flop that turn isnt gonna scare him. give it up, hes gonna have Tx/5x or a PP MUCH more than a flush draw to make this +EVoh, and I know you fixed it to not show villians action, but if villan folded, the river wouldnt of been dealt Link to post Share on other sites
gadjet 11 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 oh, and I know you fixed it to not show villians action, but if villan folded, the river wouldnt of been dealtYeah this was pretty funny...Tough call, because the ten on the turn is pretty much a blank for both so if you don't push with a continuation pot you are giving him an easy steal... but I think it's an overplay of AK which is all too typical and easy to do...

ChrisRichey 1 Posted August 27, 2006 Author Share Posted August 27, 2006 I completely missed that, but then again I was pretty stoned yesterday. Again, thanks as always for the analysis.Results: Villain had KTo Link to post Share on other sites
HtotheNootch 0 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 This is actually an interesting hand (to me at least). I've been toying with the concept of pushing PF in these situations. If I raise, get called, and C-bet, I end up in Harrington's "Red Zone", or have to make difficult decisions later. If I just push, I get to see all 5 cards. The "Red Zone" sucks. The "Orange Zone" isn't much better. Lately, I've found that if I'm in the "Orange Zone", I'm better off just pushing a hand I want to play. I'm still trying to figure out if this is how I want to play (why this hand interests me), but it seems like a good way to simplify the "Orange Zone" game. Link to post Share on other sites
