Considering you,ve already doubled up and have around 4k and with 5 playeres i,m not raising pre and definatley folding after the all in, especially with the blinds at only 50/100 - theres a good chance you can cash w/o playing another hand
If you lose this hand your doubling him up, putting him back into it and dragging yourself back into the game when you don,t need to
If it was an MTT or STT then its a different story and I,m calling it all day long
Nah Open folding is madness. As is open shoving. When you make the open with 9's, most of the time, you're going to take the blinds uncontested. Sometimes you are going to get called. A small %age of the time, you're going to get shoved on. So clearly coming in for a raise is best, as opening and folding to a raise is perfectly fine when we're 40 big blinds deep. ------------------------------------------------- There's only really 77 and 88 that he could shove on us with that we beat. There are millions of hands we are flipping against, and quite a few that crush us. If at the start of the hand someone said to you "this hand, you're going to flip for 1,200 chips. Or, you can pay a 300 chip fine, and avoid having to do so" Which option would you take in this situation? ------------------------------------------------- The 3x open has failed, you're raising against random hands - him shoving tells you his range crushes your hand. Re-assess. ------------------------------------------------ FOLD. Posted by DOHHHHHHH
This doesn't take into account the chance to knock a player out.
