What are the different ways of playing this hand?

<< < (2/4) > >>

AMRN:
44% of hands is pretty damned loose, particularly this late in a tourney - therefore I would have to assume that AJs is well ahead of his range, and would certainly not be flatting out of position preflop.... gotta raise here and either take the pot, or at least get a better idea of where you are.

As played, fold to the shove.

deanp27:
just post the HH as i can"t work out what happened, what was his raise size pre???

sounds like you should just fold preflop

Marty719:
p/f is a raise>fold>>>call imo

Hate playing these hands oop against ppl tht have us covered and r not afraid to put us in awkward spots.

u got this right shoz? just about plays 1 folds 1 and with decent play? for 8 orbits?
As swine says dump tracker for these types of games.
Posting history along with reads will help those answering.. [in your tracker folder?]

from what i can work out 5 handed 10 left itm, reraise pre std and make your std cbet , you dont give his raise size pre but if the rr is going to commit u then either shove it all in or do a go+go , this deep itm 5 handed AJ against the type u describe then its worth trying to double up [even if its a race/flip]  put on the long term spectacles for these same situations..

shozboy1:
ok thanks. Things are alot clearer. His raise size pre flop was 2250 (3BBs) with 70k behind. My stack was about 24k, roughly just over 30BBs. So the raise is about 10% of my stack.

I think to sum up the general consensus is a reraise preflop and then a cbet on the flop (I guess those who favour that also would then feel pot committed and call an all in reraise by the villain on the flop).

I personally have to say I still favour a flat call preflop due to my deepish stack. Perhaps I should"ve then made a feeler bet postflop and folded to a reraise all in. Then I can easily fold as I haven"t committed too much to the pot with a preflop reraise. I guess another not to terrible option is to fold and avoid playing the big stack with a reasonable hand but oop. Perhaps focus on pressurizing those with less chips then me. Besides, my mindset does tend to switch to a Single table SNG as I"m approaching/on the final table so generally that means playing tightish early on and opening up once 3-4 players have busted themselves (which you can almost guarantee at low stakes)
