I bottled this hand !



Posted Thu Dec 28, 2006 4:38 pm GMT by Concussed
Scenario:

NL Hold-em $.15/.25

I have $20 and so did Opponent. He had become increasingly irritated in his chat over the last 20 mins, but basically played good hands.

I had KK and bet .50 from early position (the table was loose) but there were no callers til Opp bet $6 (by far and away the highest he'd bet)

No more callers....I folded. Embarassed

The only fear i had was Aces.... would anyone else have folded or (as i suspect), did i bottle this hand !

You call

if he has aces he has aces its poker
its vary vary hard to fold kings iv done it twice that i can honistly remeber and both times i got it right but it was spots where someone else had already call'ed and i felt i was at best conterfitted at worst domanated
iv also called with Queens when two people made big moves in front of me becuse I fiqured my read was right and i had two live cards vs no live cards on there hands and was right QQ vs AA vs AA and i spiked my Q on the flop ending it right there

I’d re-raise him. Reasons:

  • If he's got AA I’m paying him off. Ugly, maybe even a hole, but simple.
  • If he’s an okay player he’s unlikely to make such an uncallable raise with AA.

I'd re-raise as well...

If he has AA then well it happens, but you cannot blame yourself. If he has A-K then your in good shape.

I can't believe no one has mentioned this so far, but raise more PF. The minimum raise is not sufficient for what you are trying to achieve.
