10 10 vs short stack nl100

just reraise bigger pre and shove flop

it's not like this spot is ever going to come up vs. anyone who has any idea what he's doing

I play more tables so i just easily press ai and get called by j5o here

newblish, it's good that you're thinking about spots where others just have a standard line. I like that you're posting this.

Anyways, if you're committed on any flop, that does not mean that you stop playing poker.

Think "what is the best way to make the most money". If you're already committed, think about what is the best way to get him to give you money with his whole range of hands. In particular, your flop bet size gave him no room to bluff or float.

I would recommend betting 5$ and shoving or checkcalling every turn.

8 on flop
rest on turn

or bet small to give him room for a bluf

or shove the flop

u pick one, whatever u do dont fold

jam preflop

seriously though make life easy and just shove pre. It is massively +ev and u stack some hands that might actually find folds seeing a flop (22 calls ur 3bet but doesnt want to stack on aqk etc w/e

you get this in: if you think he shoves more if checked to than calls if you shove, you check, otherwise shove.

you are committed to stack off if he does have a K here, but what you can control is manipulating him to stack off with as wide of a range as possible

you reraise with TT here for value, because he will be calling you with Ax/Kx, lower pocket pairs

i would reraise smaller even, just to ensure a call, because TT is just obliterating his range (notice how he called with 89o, which you are 80% vs. would you have wanted him to fold pre?)

on this flop, bet something 6, shove the turn

if you think he will only call you with a K vs a flop and turn shove, then u should be taking this line as a bluff and getting him to fold everything but Kx. DUCY?

don't fucking shove pre that is awful, shove is DEF. +ev but not the most +ev play

if you shove here, he folds his trash. the shove is only good because 20bb shortstacking fish will make the larger mistake of calling with trash sometimes (WHICH DOES NOT MAKE THE SHOVE CORRECT)

give me a green star

also newblish lets play hu 2 table, whats ur nick on ftp

attempted hijack - will make my own

He is calling a shove with any Ax,most Kx and all pairs, he will most likely fold tho once he missed the flop w Ax,Kx and might fold a low pp if the flop is all overs and when the flop comes AQx what do we do¿? bet/call? c/f c/c ?? and you dont know if he is calling 89off like he did here even to a small raise, i really cant think of many hands we want to keep in other than that and expect more value from postflop.

you are overthinking bro
There is nothing to think in this hand actually
You have TT you raise pre
He call
You cbet a decent flop
He call
You are committed
You put him all in
Thats all

Also fish LOVE to float flop with ANY TWO
So him calling your cbet mean nothing
I always put it in on turn and expect to have the best hand

I could be wrong and i might be since i cant give alot of these people credit for thinking that deep, but at the same time i think its also stupid to call anything but Kx in a 3bet pot(for his calling range on the flop i mean) so.. i also think open shoving preflop is bad.. getting absolutely no value like that.

Wait..
Do you think this guy is good?
Do you think peoples are good?
Yeah floating an ace is horrible...actually if he have an ace worth a preflop call he should have shoved pre
BUT HE SUX
PEOPLE ARE BAD AND KEEP DOING SOMES RETARDED THINGS
Stop thinking everyone play like you
Stop thinking that others players THINK THEY DONT
So yeah hes claling flop with A high or a gutshot or bottom pair or w/e shit he have
He call flop any 2 very often

lol 20bb villain

why is this a topic?

why do you take your time to comment?

Ok,

My best assumption is to have just bet the flop a little smaller to give the guy room to bluff shove any 2 and then just get rest in on any turn if he does decide to flat. Its pretty simple, the whole problem was simply putting him on a range for flatting(which i felt most smart thinking opponents could only do here if they had a K). Obviously of course i never assumed that he was a deep thinker or w/e but we cant just dismiss this shit.. thats why this is a thread. Bewcause ultimately just saying "im committed" when he shows you Kx can still suck even if hes short.

This btw is a general idea i wanted to discuss in all situations with any medium PP. Where is the line to 3bet vs short stack? With 77/88/99/1010 we are always going to see overcards.. and to just say "well im practically committed on lots of flops" seems REAL spewy.

anyway, thanks for input. Though i guess it was a bit overanalyzed

This was my initial thought lol

on a range for flatting(which i felt most smart thinking opponents could only do here if they had a K)

that doesn't mean that they are a smart thinking opponent - it just means they think on level 1, just like you do
