    Default Do You Make This Push?

    PokerStars Game #3173955773: Tournament #15705656, Hold'em No Limit - Level IV (50/100) - 2005/11/27 - 13:51:53 (ET)
    Table '15705656 1' Seat #7 is the button
    Seat 1: Hydroseeds (750 in chips)
    Seat 2: GBaRtMaN (1310 in chips)
    Seat 3: buch122 (4220 in chips)
    Seat 4: BEBSS (1595 in chips)
    Seat 5: Greek7 (725 in chips)
    Seat 6: rscl31 (2005 in chips)
    Seat 7: Sparty71 (1200 in chips)
    Seat 8: hebe2003 (1695 in chips)
    hebe2003: posts small blind 50
    Hydroseeds: posts big blind 100
    *** HOLE CARDS ***
    Dealt to Hydroseeds [As 8d]
    GBaRtMaN: folds
    buch122: folds
    BEBSS: calls 100
    Greek7: folds
    rscl31: folds
    Sparty71: folds
    hebe2003: raises 100 to 200
    Hydroseeds: ???

    Idiot hebe had been minraising with Ax or crap all day, should have been out already but sucked out on a guy. Folding would leave me with 600 chips, which I felt is basically hanging on for dear life. I was basically certain BEBSS would fold to an AI, and I figured at best hebe has A9. Calling would basically mean I'm pushing any flop and I thought I'd have a better chance winning pushing and hoping for folds. Having them both fold would put me at 1050, giving me a stack to work with again.

    Do you push here? Anything flawed with my thinking?


    Hydroseeds: raises 550 to 750 and is all-in
    BEBSS: folds
    hebe2003: calls 550
    *** FLOP *** [Tc Jc 5h]
    *** TURN *** [Tc Jc 5h] [9c]
    *** RIVER *** [Tc Jc 5h 9c] [9h]
    *** SHOW DOWN ***
    hebe2003: shows [5d Jd] (two pair, Jacks and Nines)
    Hydroseeds: shows [As 8d] (a pair of Nines)

    Well until you get rid of the results I wouldn't expect much helpful advice.

    hey hydroseeds,
    this is tricky, but i like the push here. you have a short stack and you are way ahead of the card range he has been min raising.

    Thanks for the reply gabe.

    Yeah, this was a very tough decision for me. Normally this is a certain laydown, but this guy was just too fishy. Glad you agree with my decision

    I wasn't trying to be an asshole. You typically get better advice when people aren't influenced by the results.
