8,80 6-max turbo @ stars

    Default 8,80 6-max turbo @ stars

    We're itm at this point, about 50 left. I think this was 500 entrants capped tourney. I've been aggressive throughout, raising almost atc from LP, if called then taking it down by cbets or double barrels. It's been working great so far

    Villain here is 19/5 after 25 hands FWIW.

    Do you fold to his turn reraise?

    Hand converter doesn't seem to work with HH pasted from HEM (is there a way to get this to work?) , and I can't be bothered digging out the specific file from stars histories, so bear with me, please.

    Fold and keep stealing. There is no need to get fancy with a weak A, when stealing is that easy.

    I'd check the turn. I can't see folding TP with a PSB behind but I'd like it a lot better if he put the money in first.

    As played you're getting way too big a price to fold, this is a draw or worse A sometimes and you even have a decent shot at chopping with some better Ax. You even are priced in vs QT.

    I dont like this spot, Odds are good and you could be ahead as drmc said, trouble is its likely all the money is going in and you only have a weak ace. Maybe Extremophile is right, its a steal play that has gone bad so give up on it.

    I might well have check folded that flop it doesnt look nice.

    yeah if you're checking any flops this is a good one to check.

    Doc, he already invested 1/3 of his stack and will be committed if he puts another 1/3. If you think we are ahead then we should reraise all in. If he had been stealing pretty easy, it is quite possible that the villian has a good hand. Why do you think villian bets half his stack on the turn on a draw instead of just flat calling?

    his turn raise sets us in, we only have 30k to start the hand.
