    Default NLFR Tough spot here with TPTK vs halfstackers

    UTG Hero $121.70
    UTG+1 2in2006 $85.50
    CO Poker Yone $27.15
    BTN Weiselzelle $53.50
    SB suntzu2012 $110.55
    BB mystikal4 $129.55




    Hero raises to $3.50, 1 fold, Poker Yone calls $3.50, Weiselzelle calls $3.50, 2 folds


    Flop ($12, 3 players)

    Hero bets $7, Poker Yone calls $7, Weiselzelle raises to $20, $13 to Hero ($111.20)?

    CO is a 60/4 superdonk station

    BTN is a 13/8 TAG. 80 hands but no reads on the TAG so he hasnt gotten out of line.

    yeah. thats a tough spot. I'd reraise to 35 see what both do. you can't worry about co, he seems like a calling station and prolly will fold. if he calls, most of the time he's behind you with KQ, although I wouldn't put it past him to have something stupid like Q9. Weiselzelle might have a big draw like 10sJs or ks9s and is raising to take it down, if so he's ahead of you odds wise, but he may not feel comfortable shipping it. He could also have something like 99 with the pre flat (a bit timid, but i've made that play many times). have you seen him play any sets before? does he favor a slow play or fast and hard?

    Its marginal, but I like the re-raise here hoping to hold on against the draw or a weaker Q.

    I think this depends entirely on how often you think BTN has KQ combinations and whether he would raise that flop to get it in (he's obv not raising KQ there to fold to a shove).

    I would fold tbh although it sucks big balls that he's only half stacked which makes it very tempting to shove.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    If you reraise here you pot commit yourself to villain's short stack.
