opinon on this hand please.....how would you play it and what would you do ??

<< < (3/6) > >>

bricko:
Must agree with few others either fold pre flop or raise

noble1:
On button, I call for 900 to make it 1800
Oppo raises in BB to 4200 so for 2400 more, I call as i think he could see my limp as an opportunity to make a move

Sorry none of this makes sense, did you min raise? but then you say you had limped?
if he made it 4200 it would cost you 3300 to call?

more info on blinds and antes please....

Also if you raise pre-flop you can define the hand range of your opponents better when they re-raise or call,just a thought !!!!

baldaceguy:
Bearing in mind the state of play at this point would not even be in the hand no need with these cards.You are comfortabley placed without the need to risk marginal hands.however if you decide to enter the pot you should raise.

What i said too!!

BOINGBLITZ:
Sorry for confusing you guys......and I REALLY appreciate your feedback on this.......the blinds were 800 /1600.

I DID call him and as a few of you correctly pointed out he DID have a genuine hand in Q-Q.
 The turn was the
6c

but the river came down as
 tc

....to complete my straight, and giving me a massive 30k+ in chips, which I then turned into first place to win the seat.

  What REALLY got to me was that he then went on the Forum and slagged me off like you wouldn"t believe. Why can"t people just accept that sometimes you are going to get outdrawn >??
  I can appreciate the reasoning in that I maybe shouldn"t have been in the hand at all, but sometimes NOT trying to steal the blinds can also paint a confusing picture ?
  I thought he was raising me pre-flop just to get me out of the hand and say "If you don"t raise, I will !!"
  But I read his small raise as weak, hence my call. If I miss the flop I can then fold if he bets out. But once I hit that flop, with 12 outs, I just didn"t see how I could possibly bin them, the reasoning being that if I do win, I virtually have the seat in the bag. Ironically, I later folded A-K twice and Q-Q....ALL pre-flop !!
  His comments on the board were along those lines of I shouldn"t be in the hand....but a few also reasoned that his raise was crap !  He didn"t agree as he was such a classy player !
  His comment of "I ain"t gonna go now as if I see this player I will lump him one !" didn"t reek of class to me !!
   Again, thanx for your feedback guys.

 BOING BOING !!
