Personally I Wouldnt play it the same way either of you did... I would of flat called the raise on BB, if its a low flop then push... but if a flop comes AKQ for example then your 33 is probs no good vs a raiser... Also im presuming blinds are between 200 and 400 ?? therefor you have plenty of time still to wait for a better spot, so may not shove on a flop unless i hit neway.... As for him calling with Q7, all i can say is eeeeoooorrrrr
hi kev it was a mugs call but what do you expect,it is getting very hard to make people fold at online poker,so if you push with 33 you gotta expect a call and hope for the best,personally i have stopped pushing with marginal hands because even if you have ak etc he calls with his q7 and hits 40% of the time......cheers bud

Your all-in was I think rash. What were you hoping for? You don't say what the blinds were but 20% of your stack to call against what I assume was a fairly substantial raise would be an expensive flop. If you were hoping he'd fold then your risking your tournament for 1000 chips when he could hold anything against your 33. However, having said that his call is attrocious, he's calling half his stack with junk. As it turns out it was a coin flip and he got lucky. Pocket 3's facing a big raise I'd have chucked 'em without a second thought.
in a torn 2 nite im bb have 3s guy with 9700 chips goes 1050 i have 5900 i push all in he calls wiv Q/7 and guess what..lol he had the nerve to say i plyed it badly.. did i??? Posted by razorkev
What exactly were the blinds? What position was he in? If he was on the button it looks like a good shove but depends on the factors i just mentioned.

I like your play, Kev. I hate the call.
Remember: you can shove with any two; but you should only be calling off 2/3 of your stack with a premium hand. Q7 is not a premium hand! His initial raise is fine (nice try, buddy), but faced with your three-bet jam he should muck it. Simple.
I'm not sure about FlashFlush's suggestion. Why make a speculative call with nearly 20% of your stack (unless you were determined to shove the flop, no matter what)? Personally, I think the correct play in that situation is shove or fold and, because Kev has significant fold equity, I favour the former option...

If he raises a lot then go for it.
If he is tight then I would fold every time.

With the 33 its a reshove all in or a fold.
I think you played it right Kev, and it was a terrible call from a player that obviously doesnt know what they are doing. James H is spot on.
All the best m8
