Pub league. Mostly regulars an very friedly atmosphere. Like most pub tourneys the final table has about a 10bb average stack and it"s shove fold stuff
I"m im SB and I never look at my cards before my action. Like to watch others reactions and bet sizes etc to help me decide my actions but this is a super tell (infact it"s not a tell it"s something else!!!!)
As cards are dealt, BB gets up to go to order at bar when he looks at his two hole cards. He, like myself has about 4BB and i have 5BB. As he looks at his cards he says "don"t fold me I want to play"
Folded to button who limps and has a stack of around 15BB. I look down and see KK.
What to do? Had 2 thoughts
A. BB seems intent to have a good hand so do I complete the blinds and let him shove/raise in the hope the limper calls too and I can get most value for my strong hand? If BB decides to see a flop then jam and effectively do a stop N go type play?
B. Raise/shove my kings in the hope to get the BB to call and the limper should hopefully fold or the BB decides his hand ain"t worth playing and folds, the limper is hopefully gonna call with his hand, and if they both fold, well my stack increases by about 25-30%
For the record, I slow play hands like this once every millennia if I"m not so short.
