In Response To: My Score + questions (Stick)

I forget what the multiple choice answers were, but here's what I would do...

#5

Pot: 4000+400+1200+(9x25) = 5825. It's 2800 to call, getting about 2:1 on your call. SB "seems solid" w/e the hell that means... he's freaking <10M... in push/fold mode. I call here 7 days a week and 5 times on Sunday. A9 has a BUNCH of his range beat, and is a coinflip on any pair <8s. (<10M range is any 2 paint, any ace, any pair, and maybe even any suited King.)

#14

Position is key here. I fold the 5s. The raise came from UTG, which usually means a strong hand, and there are players behind me to act. If the raiser is a maniac, i may reraise to isolate, but i'm definitely not smooth calling here.

#17

With a TA image here, I'll raise ~30% of the time, limp ~40% of the time, and fold ~30 of the time.

#19

NEVER re-raise, call with ANY 2 cards. The important thing here is the stack sizes. You may be able to stack him even with him knowing you know what he has.

#24

Fold. It's not worth 8k with this crap holding.

#29

Max buy in for 5/10 is 1k. 5k is only 5 buy-ins. I'd say no. I'd be more comfortable with about 12 buyins even for a pro.

#32

True. AT out of position doesn't normally play well.

#51

You call. You have the 2nd nuts. You are willing to pay off AA, but don't want to stack yourself by moving in. Consider the possibilities if you move in:

1) He has AA and insta calls.

2) He has a weak flush and folds

3) He has a strong flush and calls

4) He has a strong flush and folds

In 3 of the 4 scenarios you either don't make any more than a simple call would get you, or lose your stack. Don't overplay it here. Be happy with a nice pot if you win, and be even happier when you just call the river and he flips up the nuts.
