tskillz187 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Ya I understand, I just think he's giving a player he knows of, (doesnt know personally) too much credit.I've given players i kinda know credit before and its burned me.This didn't burn Roothlus though, what did he lose total? 350? And if he called he would have gotten 350 back? I mean what can PrtyPsux put roothlus on? At WORST JJ-AA and AK and I think that range is veryyyyy liberal for early on with a reraise from UTG. I think the raise to 350 is brilliant he loses the minimum whenever PrtyPsux pushes. Why is it wrong for him to put a raise in and then say in his mind, okay if he pushes over the top of this I fold? He knows that a push over the top indicates most likely AA. Calling off his whole stack in a case where hes likely a 4:1 dog, and at best chopping seems pretty horrible to me.

Wingmaster05 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 No, someone would've 4 flushed. It's stars.well if they played on FT they would've hit a king on the flop, so there. Link to post Share on other sites
Royal_Tour 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I think its fine.dude put him on AA or KK (7 possible hands)7 possible variations.only 2 hands, u either have aces or kings, kings are less likely because he holds 2 of the 4, Link to post Share on other sites

Wandigo 1 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 ugh u didnt see that did YOU???lol the $300 tourney, w/e I was busting no matter what.

And in the $150, I guess the cards were just against you the whole time Link to post Share on other sites
10'sorbetter 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 well if they played on FT they would've hit a king on the flop, so there. Can't hit another "K"..they both have KK Link to post Share on other sites
Royal_Tour 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Ok. heres a question.i like this thread so i wanna keep it going.What is this 300.00 to roothlus, and what is it to Party??If you're in roothlus' shoes, and you play these 300.00 buy-ins daily, or if 300 is a bit lower than your normal buy in, do you make this call?what if its the WSOP ME and you saved up your cash to play, is it now an easy fold?I'm not gonna lie, that my views are based on the idea that its an online tourney, and i'm playing well within my BR so busting is not a big deal.

RDog 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Did you not read what Roothlus wrote? He had a very strong read that Prty would only play his hand this way if he held KK or AA. Since there is only 1 way to make KK and 6 ways to make AA, he was actually a massive underdog to Prty's range, and therefore folding is correct. This is not hard.Oh, I see, you are the resident pro on what is and isn't hard? If you think laying down the second best starting hand there, is an easy decision, you are crazy. Just because someone is a good player it makes the decision correct? My point was that I think the way the hand played out that Aces are much less likely in that situation. Or am I the only person here that if I am Prty and I have Aces that I just call the re-raise? I DON'T move in with Aces. I don't know much about how Prty plays but I don't think he is so tight that he would only come over the top with those hands here. I'm with Royal, I would only consider laying down Kings if it was more than 1 person in the pot and there has been significant strength shown, where moving in with Aces makes more sense to get isolated on only 1 player. Unless he plays with Prty daily I don't see how his range only includes Aces and Kings....and even then. Link to post Share on other sites
mk 11 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Oh, I see, you are the resident pro on what is and isn't hard? When the topic in question is reading comprehension I feel confident in saying it isn't hard. Link to post Share on other sites
thrillsoft 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 huh??I've laid down kings preflop., once and it was similar to this situation, except there was a 3rd partya preflop limp from EP, a raise, my re-raise, Limp pushes, raise calls., i fold.it was AA vs junk, I'm saying in HU, back and forth,. roothlus probably had the mind set to fold if PPsux pushes, which he even types out and explains, I put him on AA if he pushes. This is the exact situation I folded them before too. Sometimes, you just KNOW. Link to post Share on other sites
Petoria 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 7 possible variations.only 2 hands, u either have aces or kings, kings are less likely because he holds 2 of the 4,I'm not sure if you were disagreeing with ...Ian...'s number, but there are 7 variations.4 C 2 + 2 C 2 = 7(C = choose) (4C2 for the 4 Aces, how many distinct ways are there to choose 2 if order doesnt matter) (2 C 2 for the 2 remaining K's, how many distinct ways are there to choose 2 if order doesnt matte) Link to post Share on other sites

Butcho22 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 This is the exact situation I folded them before too. Sometimes, you just KNOW.The only time you can ever KNOW you are up against aces, is if there are mulitple all ins before you...and at least two of those all ins are from very healthy stacks compared to the field. Then, and only then, could you say you even come close to KNOWING you're against aces. Bottom line....you ready???Roothlus makes more money here in the long run if he calls in this spot...

NicksDad1970 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I agree with what Royal Tour was saying. If you play in 300 buy ins daily then you might say "screw the small possiblity that he has AA" and go all in. If you normally play in smaller ones then it might be different.Just last night I was playing in a 5$ 3 table SNG and I had 3500 in chips with pretty small blinds and I CALLED a 1000 all in bet with 4-5h. I was bored and when I won the hand I told the others it was a misclick. I agree I can be pathetic. I think it's great that someone can be that confident in their reads to be able to lay down KK. I was blown away when little nickey layed down QQ in that WSOP circuit event. Link to post Share on other sites

NicksDad1970 0 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 so different....I realize a 10k buy in is much more than a 300 buy in on the internet. But if you have 3 million in the bank and I have 100 is there a difference in what 50 dollars means to each of us?But anyway I agree it's totally different. But I was still blown away at how fast little nickey folded. Link to post Share on other sites
