 $60-$120 Hand, Jim Brier, 29. Sep 2002 00:17 | ||
| View ( Message | Thread ) | Return to Thread List | |
| I am in the big blind having the Kc-9c in this 9-handed $60-$120 game. A solid player limps in under-the-gun. It is folded to a stranger in middle position who makes it $120. It is folded to me. I call for another $60. The under-the-gun calls as well. There is $400 in the pot and three players. The flop is: Kd-9d-6h, giving me the top two pair. I bet. The under-the-gun player makes it $120. The preflop raiser calls $120 cold. I make it $180 and both opponents call. There is $940 in the pot. The turn is the 2s. I bet $120. The under-the-gun player calls. The preflop raiser now makes it $240. Should I make it $360 or just call? I will post the results later. | ||

| Hi Jim You should raise as long as the player is not of the texure that he would not do that with one pair. You don't want to give the player behind you a correct draw with a K-kicker hihger than 9! Plus I think that as long as the former statement is true you shoudl have the best hand. This is dependant upon player texture! Roy Cooke on 29. Sep 2002 00:17 Jim Brier wrote: > I am in the big blind having the Kc-9c in this 9-handed $60-$120 game.

| I'll have a stab at this . You raise. I'm guessing that UTG is on top pair and Middle Position is playing a A or Q suited draw being that he was still getting 5 to 1 when raising on the turn. U raise, hopefully pushing out UTG and effecting the odds for the middle player. Might have this drastically wrong but i figure if i'm gonna spend half hour looking at it, I might as well record my thoughts. Regards Harry. | ||

| One further point from my analysis on this hand, I did'nt put the middle player on a set due to the call on the flop. If in the unlikely circumstance the middle player had pocket 9's or K's would I be right in saying that with 2 suited cards on the board, there would alway's be a re-raise in this situation, or is their a possibility that their still could have been a slow play? Thanks Harry | ||

| GIven your deceptive lead on the flop with a strong hand into the preflop raiser I think its important to make it three bets in this spot to cut down the odds of the player in the middle who is likely to be on a draw. Your lead on the flop may very well have caused the preflop raiser to misread your hand as many players would automatically check with a big hand in this spot hoping to hit it on the turn. I think an average player particularly at the higher limits would reraise with a wide variety of hands which you could beat. Given this betting sequence I think the preflop raisers range of hands would likely be AA,AK,KQ,KJ , pocket 9's pocket k's or possibly a big draw such as the QJd or J10d. Since you hold a King and a nine that cuts down the possibility of either pocket kings or pocket nines. I would reraise. Scrooge Mcd on 29.

| I wimped out and just called. The under-the-gun player called as well. The river was a blank and the hand was checked down. I won as the preflop raiser had pocket aces and the under-the-gun player had Kh-Jh. I erroneously thought that if the preflop raiser had just a pair, even an overpair of aces, that he would have showed more strength on the flop rather than just calling. So when he raised my turn bet, I put him on a set of kings or a set of nines. I guessed I cost myself a couple of big bets here. Thanks for the responses. | ||
