Folding AQ in the rebuy hour

[Andy Holt]

Everyone needled me in Vent when I tossed it.

My read on the CO is that he's solid, and has a good track record according to Gabe on thepokerdb.

This is about the 15th hand of the rebuy hour.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

MP2 (t2115)
Hero (t8870)
CO (t11575)
Button (t2875)
SB (t1340)
BB (t2460)
UTG (t5750)
UTG+1 (t6945)
MP1 (t6070)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A, Q.
4 folds, Hero raises to t90, CO raises to t350, 2 folds, BB raises to t2460, Hero folds, CO calls t2110.

Flop: (t5025) 7, 8, 3 (2 players)

Turn: (t5025) T (2 players)

River: (t5025) T (2 players)

Final Pot: t5025

i was on vent giving you a hard time, but its really not that bad. i like gambling for a stack because it lets me play more loose/aggro after rebuy hour, but that doesn't fit your style i guess.

I never raise a hand during rebuy hour unless I'm willing to play for stacks. Nothing wrong with limping AQ here and seeing what everyone else does.

Also, I never raise anything 3x this early. 4x+ in a FO depending on table. Rebuy, 5x at LEAST.

Having said all that I think it's a OK fold as played. You have a tasty stack going.

Easy fold. Co's range is better than AQ with your read. Rebuy hour doesn't justify taking huge -EV edges.

[WildBobAA]

Yea I was mocking you too but your opponent was good (as I said) and with that read you can lay it down.

[gabe]

he wasn't that good........like 7% roi over 500+ sngs

i rarely fold this in rebuy hour

ever

unless i have an absolutely towering stack...and it's like my entire stack to play.

[drmcboy]

did you read the history? Reading +EV

[Andy Holt]

I know everyone knows this already, but the CO had KK.

[dthorne04]

did you read the history? Reading +EV

uhh...yes. ty cap obv.

i was talking to andy on vent during this hand.

sometimes i fold hands in rebuy hour, but generally i'm attempting to accumulate at least 10 K>

i fold this hand, but i was giving a generalized statement due to the fact i was in multiple MTTs.

also, i'd generally open shove this hand.

anyway.

OOPS. my bad.
