    Default Opinions on AK pf fold??

    For some background, this is a 1-table sng, top 3 pay. MP and UTG are pretty loose but only raise on quality hands. CL was a bully but his weak raise was really suspicious to me.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (5 handed) converter

    MP (t1070)
    Button (t6315)
    Hero (t2825)
    BB (t2120)
    UTG (t1170)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with , .
    UTG raises to t100, 1 fold, Button raises to t200, Hero folds, BB raises to t300, UTG calls t200, Button calls t100.


    Flop: (t925) 4c, 6c, 3c (3 players)
    BB bets t250, UTG raises to t870, Button raises to t620, BB folds.

    Turn: (t2665) 9s (2 players)

    River: (t2665) Ac (2 players)

    Final Pot: t2665

    Results below:
    UTG has Jh JavaScript (one pair, jacks).
    Button has Qc Qs (flush, ace high).
    Outcome: Button wins t2665.

    After the hand, BB said he also had JJ

    Dont like it. Are they playing Limit only PF and NL after? Pop this thing now.

    Of course, if this is not the normal way a hand prgresses, fear monster strength then. If this is a normal hand, then blow them away with a PF raise, the pot is juicy enough to take right now.

    I really can't give a good answer until you say how the table had been.
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    Luck is a Residue of Design.

    Normally, if CL was putting out for a raise, it was going up to at least 400-500, UTG min raise was also slightly strange, he usually just called, I couldn't recall a time where he'd actually raised.

    OK, you smell something fishy, then your bail was probably ok. You may want to hide the flop on in white, since it may skew some answers....

    So gay. I agree, Marm. I can't believe that I just read that HH.

    This is where I disagree because REALLY gay means:

    A.) low pair or big Ace- AQ, at best
    or
    B.) Aces or Kings

    Steve said it in a very recent SnG thread when he mentioned the conflict between odds and going broke.

    I'll say it how I think it: You've can't get odds when you're broke because you have nothing left to Lay to Get it back.

    Good fold.

    i go 600 and see what they do from there. call the ss push and fold to the CL push. 2200 is a fine stack and you cant fold if ss pushes cl folds. if ss pushes and cl calls have to fold. i cant see how folding here is good.

    how can you fold? are we scared money on the bubble?

    That is strange, but I would probably call. Then when they min raise again I would get pissed off and push.

    I think folding is weak, but you are in a good position to money, so I can see why you didn't want to risk chips in a spot where you had no idea what was going on.
