    Default My analysis, thoughts?

    Pretty early, no specific reads. Probably should have raised more preflop but there had been 1 raise to 100 which got all folds and a few to 60 which got 1 or 2 callers and i wanted some action.

    I am pretty sure opp bets out with top pair or set, and smooth calls with made flush, so i put him on AQ/KQ with 1 club most likely, unless he's called my preflop raise with crap, so i'm not sure what to do. If i push he rarely folds imo and i'm probably about 50% to win if you add in the small chance of a made flush.

    Does anyone agree that in this situation it is possible to define his hand well enough to call his bet and then lay it down if an K/club comes on turn, only call small bets if an A comes, otherwise put him all in on turn.

    why woudlnt ur opponent be more apt to smooth call with a club? why would he raise with a club?

    woudlnt an opponent be more apt to flat call with a club hoping to catch on the turn?

    would a set really bet here? (I would) Why woudnt a fish with a set check hoping to see a turn for free?

    i think he has a set or top 2 here....maybe top pair....but without a club draw your in a tough spot. what buy in is this...is it a turbo or a regular?

    It's the stars "double shootout" trny - $13 buyin, and this table is winner take all in effect (winner goes through to next table). 15 mins blinds.

    I had played 1 before and felt it played softer than the $10+1s.

    I did push, and he called with KQ, with the Qc, catching his flush on the turn.

    If i call his reraise, i can lay this down on the turn and still have just over 1000 chips left which is plenty to play with. I just think in this situation, that's what i should have done. But oh well.
