    Default Folded best hand to stupid overbet

    Any arguments for reraising preflop? Anyone calling the overbet? Overbettor is 12/0/0 over some tiny sample like 5 hands.

    first off man, you didnt 3 bet PF you called it, and compared to to all those stacks im either 3 betting it or getting away from it. the BB is only 40 so you have roughly over 30 BBs, which is plenty, so id most likely fold this.

    as played i think the flop is standard considering everyone and their fucking mother decided to get it on it. just donkalicous tourneys man, the only problem i have is you need to be raising or folding, as that will be the only way to narrow down to people's holdings PF.

    FWIW: pay no attention to players stats till you have a little more data on them. over 5 hands is simply too small of a sample size to judge him on.
    AsuitedKing: justify the call
    EhRa: he hits his set und waited that i hitz something and he dindt play he only goes allin
    EhRa: tahts a big donk ... so ****

    Yeah, I know the sample size is too small but I like having PT at the moment, lol.

    I agree I should've folded preflop.

    Hmm.....I don't know. At first I thought it was a trivially easy fold but considering pots like this usually get checked down, 99 isn't a bad hand to be seeing the flop with especially if we can get it multi way which is what it's looking like.

    It's not even funny how retarded MP1 is

    Nothing wrong with betting 1/30th pot, surely?

    At low stakes these hands NEVER get checked down.

    personally, i dont think this is great thinking if we're only calling in the hope that its checked down.

    I play the same as you.

    But we're talking about tourneys so that's not necessarily a good thing.
    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.

    We're also calling in the hope of actually flopping the set

    I'm not thinking that if its checked down then we win with our 9s, it just gives us more chance to make our set and hopefully very cheaply.

    On Cryptologic can I get tournament stats on PAHUD as I can't seen to find the setting. In fact, Poker Tracker doesn't display my tournament stats properly either.
