Mid stages of a tournament. Fold or call?

manolo salazar · Dec 9, 2019

This tournament was played in a pub most of the players love drinking and playing . They play really unpredictable they can call or raise with 22+ , 67+, 89s+ . Etc.

Honestly, you shouldn't even see flop with a calling station and a Nit lady acting behind you when the LAG raise to 2k.
And you made a deadly mistake by drawing your gutshot on the flop with that calling station still in the hand.
You lost 19BB in a hand you shouldn't be involved with...Geez!
Your worst mistake in this hand is you open limp! If you wanna get in this hand, you should have at least open with 2.5x raise, that calling station surely will not come in with Q5o

First- TJos from UTG+1 fold preflop
2nd- Fold after preflop raise
3th- What did you pay on the flop in the name of god?

This is more like a bingo game than poker.. call, call, call.. lol

I think I need to work more in my 3 bets ranges both for value and bluff.
Thanks for the comment !

you should be folding to the preflop raise imo...

pokerdebit · Dec 10, 2019

It was a good play from my side of view
I would probably also fold and call the way you did

Thanks guys for your advice , however when we are in this situation we have to think further and I realised that I had to calle this hand . Here is why :

manolo salazar · Dec 11, 2019

1) The hand had to be folded because I was OOP and it was not a good hand to play it in EP.
2) I knew what kind of player was the Raiser and I Had an option .. 3 bet Bluff.
3) I used a calculator to know what percentage had my opponents and they had :
Pre flop:
SB 28,6% BB 30,3% Hero 21,9 % HJ 19,2%
POT odds after everyone called was 6600
And I have to pay only 1400 which my odds were 4.7 to 1 or 17% . So, our equity is greater than or pot odds we had to call.
Flop: BB bet 3300 . I have good Pot odds for calling and it was better because HJ called.
Turn:. With the 4 of clubs came BB bet 6000 . I called and HJ Reraised 15000 . BB folded . The pot odds were 5.7:1 or 18 % my Equity was 30.1% it was A CALL.
But at that moment I didn't know!!!

You actually have some advantage of winning their money since it's a Pub game, which means most of them will be distracted by alcohol and sexual appeal.
Don't drink
Don't play GTO, keep exploiting when you have 2 or more LAG in the game
Keep a clear mind and be patient.
Cash will flow into your pocket.

May the Run Good be with you

Thank you my friend. I think sometimes that I am being too analytical in this kind of games , because they are only drinking and having fun. So I do but I try always to do the best

possible
