Queens in the Big Blind in Portugal

<< < (2/7) > >>

Waz1892:
As it is you, double check you"ve not looked at the same queen first.... ;D


Then re-raise like a trooper to kill it there

AMRN:
With two limpers and a 5x raise in front...... including the blinds, I make that 8.5bb in the middle, and you have around 27bbs behind - shove and take it down = 32% stack increase.  Get called and win = lovely. Get called and lose = cooler, and more time at the bar.

Worst case scenario is raise small, get called, and then play an Ace high flop out of position with nearly half your stack in the middle already.

For me it"s either a shove, a shove, or sometimes it might also be a shove.

agreed with that stack size, those cards and that action I don"t see how you could do anything other than shove

Des:
It"s an easy dwell, supported by a throaty "soon".  

SirPercival:
As you claim to be at a "standard" table I will assume you mean standard for that event*

So the protocol would be to tell some guy opposite you what you have and ask for his advice, in Portugese of course!

* given that you also claim to be only "fairly hungover" this would suggest I should assume nothing.
