Now I thought hard about this.. when I bet the 200 on the turn I thought he was on the flush draw, when he re-raised me I thought he may have a gut-shot straight and flush draw... was this the correct play? I think my pre-flop raise was ok, if you think elsewise, go ahead and spill. I thought about this player.. we were only into about 6-7 hands and he was limping and playing in like 5 of the 6 or 7. I checked this really quickly while the clock was going. Half my chip-stack was in and had thought he was farely loose and would push with str8/flush draws.. so I pushed all-in and was surprised that he had raised me with only k/q. Now am I on the road to disaster? was this a bad play... even if i had that little read on him that he was loose?

thanks..

I think the turn could have been 250-300, but thats being a little picky. 200 is OK for a bet there. My biggest contention is your PF Min raise? What exactly were you trying to accomplish with it? Don't do something unless you have a good reason to do it.

**JasonWillett** · 01-31-2006

Is a/j os a hand I should be raising with when two people limp in?

**Marm** · 01-31-2006

Well, yes and no.... IF you raise up to you... but its how much you raised it? Why?

**JasonWillett** · 01-31-2006

Well I re-raised the 10/15 blinds to 45 with a/j os, two limpers were in.. any problems with this setup?

**Marm** · 01-31-2006

very much so.

The normal PF raise with no limpers in is usually 3-5 to bb's (45-75). You raise the bottom of that range. With a few limpers in, you need to raise more. Personally, I would have made this at least 90-120 to go.....

**gder03** · 01-31-2006

without seeing show down:
preflop your minimum raise is pointless. If you dont wanna chek, then raise it to like 70.

also, wtf kind of structure is this? start with no chips, and high blinds.

flop, Good pot sized bet.
Turn, I think you should bet pot again. YOu bet half, and he min. raises. Could mean he is slow playing a nice hand. But ill say "the tourny structure sucks", and reraise him all in here.

haha. my play was correct.

I dont get these blinds, you get around 53BB to start and the SB is 2/3 the BB?...
