hand 114 from 'winning poker tourneys one hand at a time'
« on: March 06, 2010, 14:56:01 PM »
Views and interpretations would be useful for me on how "apestyles" played this hand...

early stages of a $55 FO. Blinds 50-100. Apestyles has been fairly inactive so far, and has a pretty tight image.
SB 5580
BB 3020 (Apestyles)
seat 3 3010
seat 4 3295
seat 5 2000
seat 6 3505
seat 7 6205
seat 8 860
seat 9 3410 (btn)


preflop. Pot is 150. Apestyles has AJo. All folds to btn. He raises to 350. He is a solid  but fairly loose-aggressive player. Has been pretty active so far. Has been raising in late pos alot and making standard cbets on the flop.

Apestyles flat calls from the BB, and the pot is now 750. The flop comes 10c8d4h.

Villain bets 750. Apestyles should do what...???

meh fold or reraise, with apes image i"d rr to 1000 ish leaving a pot bet if villain calls with the plan to do a go+go , and if villain 4bets then i"ll take my chances with AJ against lags button range and get all in..
As played [hate the call] and now villain bets pot [not std] i"d fold and move on...

As per prev hands from this book, I"ll allow afew more peeps to give a view if anyone fancies, then I"ll post his reasoning for what he did.

Actually, I"ll tell you what he did right now - he check raises all in on the flop - his reasoning I"ll post later tommorrow

Here"s his explanation:

"right now i am ahead of his opening range but almost def behind his 4betting range given he is a solid thinking player. A 3bet will have to be an amount ca 1100 or an all in. I"ll be getting over 2-1 to call if he 4bets me, making a call almost mandatory. I cant raise-fold a hand with as much value as AJ, otherwise I may aswell have total air. Its def +EV to 3bet here or push, since he"s folding so often, and infact I do reraise a decent percentage of the time here. But there are good alternatives which may produce better results.
If i flat call, I have 2670 left. If he cbets I have a good stack to check-raise all in if the board texture is right. If i 3bet pfr hands like AK/AQ are probably going to 4bet me. By flatting, and then C-R all in on dry flops, I can actually get those hands to fold some of the time (inc some small pairs). Check folding would be burning chips.
On the flop, this is exactly the kind of board I was looking for. Alot of his hands now have to fold. Its a rainbow so he cant have big cards with a flush draw. AK/AQ almost def fold to a C-R all in. 22-77 will hate calling with 2 overs on board.
After estimating all his calling ranges, and combining them I figure I have 27% equity. For this play to be profitable, I need him to fold 60% of the time. He"s actually folding much more often than that based on how often he"s raising"
