What's his range
pokerpops:
So... from memory on stack sizes
£100FO at G Stockton. 6 paid, 7 remain
There are two stacks in the 10-15BB range, plus one monster
Middle-aged (50ish) player renowned for his tightness (although known to me to be capable of making a move) raises utg+1 to just over 2BB from around 30BB stack
I 3bet BB to around 10BB showing huge strength from a stack of around 50BB
Orig raiser ships - really quick
What do we think his range is?
What"s the worst we call with?
mporter123:
3betting to 5/6bbs is enough.
Tight player who can"t get his chips in quick enough from EP. Probs AK/ QQ/ KK/ AA.
Once we 3 bet that big its hard to fold. A smaller 3 bet and I am happy to fold QQ and AK but wouldn"t be 3betting these to fold. On the bubble, my 3 betting range is basically non existent without the goods in this type of spot.

nods head - yes, smaller would have been better, and would normally be my weapon of choice here. The bigger bet was intended to show strength, and that made his 4bet look even stronger to me.

If this is the hand I think it is, I would not have put him on what he did have ;D

+1 but I"d sigh fold.. give him the knowing smile, he"d smile back, we"d laugh about it later give a nudge and a wink, back home I"d cry a little, throw more darts at his head on my dartboard, feel better ;)
ps 50 middle aged? I hope so.. means I"m still young. Yay x
