thought i think it was awful call by villan , happy with it but struggling to see how he makes call , surely not enough odds ! Any other reasons , and i been and i been playing like a nit too
-
really would like to see if there any legitiment reason for call cos i cant see one
-
misclick?

misclick?
did cross my mind but raised pre too lol
maybe just lucky hand or something. or xmas pressie early lol
-
Its nearly 2 to 1 and its scouse.........I call!!
-
just stoved it and against a shipping range of any pair, A8s+, any suited broadway, unsuited A9+, KT+ and QJ, the might 74 soooooooted has just about enough equity to make the call. Given that it is 20% of his stack, it is worth a punt.
If your shipping range is tighter there steve, then
1. I eat my hat
2. I still call anyway ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
have to agree with rob on this one
-
aylinka18 has some good results.
$450,659 in Prizes
$9,932 Profit
2% ROI
$116 ABI
Would suggest he was aware he got himself priced in to call.

I suppose in addition to the odds it"s really good for his image, I.e. Making the thought of a light shove vs him less appealing. On some tables the gain in the future may outweight the immediate -EV

Thing is, against a reasonable shoving range (22+,A8s+,KJs+,A9o+,KQo), he has 34% equity. The pot is paying him 2:1 for his call - almost exactly the right pot odds...... so his call is not really all that -EV, it"s borderline break even.
As Dave says, great for the image to the rest of the table - going to make it much harder for people to play back at him.... and he can afford to buy this image without excessively damaging his stack - he still has 33xBB behind if he loses.
(Not sure who no ante"s in play in a Pokerstars $215 tourney in level 14)

He probably feels he won"t be raise/folding to c10-12 bb stack, so may have planned to call you off before he even opened

this......especially when he 3x"s.

It"s on Pokerstars so no real surprise.
Just don"t understand how the Jacks held up. Surely the board came out J - 3 - 9, turn 5, river 6? Have you contacted technical support to let them know their software glitched?
As for the call, personally i think it"s dreadful. Don"t mind the pre-flop raise but not calling the shove. Much better spots imo. As for his image, does it more harm than good for me.

Andy - you don"t mind a preflop raise to 3x, but you would then fold to a 10x shove? Shouldn"t be opening 3x if you gonna fold to a shortstack shove.
-
Some good points ty all . Made no odds cos went out about 50 before the money, i 3 bet jammed with about 17 bigs with AK got 4 bet shoved by 10`s when he just had me covered and the 10s held ! Win that race and was on course for a swindells lol

Well, i wouldn"t be opening there to 3x to be fair. Should have stated that. I meant the raise itself, not the amount.

This is really flawed thinking Andy. The pot odds make this a neutral / + EV call so neither calling or folding are dreadful but you do have to take really thin edges to succeed in these huge field events.
It is most likely, as stated earlier, that aylinka18 raised knowing who he"d call a shove from and who he"d fold to.

But Scouse had also stated earlier that he"d been playing tight (as it"s Scouse this could well mean only playing the top 80% of hands! ;o).
So if Aylinka raised knowing who he"d fold to how come he chose to call against someone who"d been playing tight?
If it were someone Scouse knew and he was playing his normal game i don"t mind so much, as it is there are much better spots.

you are making an assumption that he was paying attention to Scouse"s VPIP etc.
Also, even if Scouse is only shoving top 8% (88+,ATs+,KTs+,QJs,AJo+), 74s still has 30%.

Steve, are you honestly saying you think it"s a good play? Would you make the same play? If so we need to talk strategy hand/values etc next time we meet!

Andy, I"m saying that if you are prepared to open raise for 3x, with a plan to fold to a 10x short stack shove, you are playing way too spewy. If you plan to fold to a short stack 10x shove, then you really shouldn"t be opening for 3x...... but your original response said you thought the open 3x raise was fine.
-
I explained that one a bit later. I said i didn"t mind the raise, not the amount. I wouldn"t be raising to 3x, it would be 2 to 2.5, but i"d fold to a 12x shove (which it was closer to) from someone who i"d seen to be playing tight, when i"m only holding 7-4. Calling there is far more spewy imo.

He may have been playing tight from 20 down to his current 12 BB"s ( we"ll take his word for it :) ) but now with 12 BB"s his range for pushing has to widen.
So, on the button with 12 BB"s versus a loose opening range, what"s your range for resteal jamming.

Youv"e got the odds to call [2:! as stated above] aslong as you have a chipstack to take a hit i call
