    Default How do you play this?

    This is a turbo, previous hand I raised and called an all in on the flop showing down AQ to beat A4 (!). Villian seems loose, how do you play this on the flop?

    PokerStars (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with A, K. SB posts a blind of 15.
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls 30, 3 folds, Hero raises 120, SB (poster) calls 105, 1 fold, UTG+1 calls 90.

    Flop: 9, K, 7 (3 players)
    SB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets 300, SB raises 300 to 600, UTG+1 folds, [color=#CC3333]Hero ????

    150 to go preflop, you're in position.

    On the flop, easy shove over. If he has 2 pair or a set I pay him off. At the $6.50 turbos TPTK is very often the best hand, you'll see flush draws and crap like A9/A7 very often.

    Cool, thats what I did and he had K9 curse him!

    I've started playing the 2 table $6.50 turbos they seem pretty good so far

    Keep in mind that these will be high variance. Good luck

    Yeah I've seen so many bad beats since I started playing turbos because you get so many all ins! Still I had my best night ever tonight I won $76 which is about a 60% increase of my br :P Probably won't get in the money for my next 10 now haha

    high var for sure. tried 4 tabling the $16 last night, did 2 sets. OOTM first 7 and 2nd place on last one when i had 10:3 adv (with 400/800 blind)on the last one.Ouch but reviewed my pushes and they were good bar 1-2 slighlty -EV pushes overall!! SO im happy i may be able for it and no timing out.

    reads are much harder to make tho most plays/pushes are standard.
    Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.

    I tried playing 2 at once and it was ok, won 1 and 2nd in the other but I couldn't add another one yet and I was definitely focussing on one more than the other. Still I need to get to grips with multi-tabling so I will keep trying 2 at once.

    I agree with the group here... this should be an insta-push.

    Im in the same boat. What has helped is not starting the second table until the first one becomes shorthanded. I have trouble managing 2 tables when play becomes shorthanded simultaneously.
