Hi, this was an interesting hand I spotted in the book played by "Apestyles". It sort of relates to the 6max cash game JJ hand that was discussed afew days back (very loosely though). Obv this is a tourney though, but its at an early deep stack stage of the tourney so might be relevant to that hand...

early stages of a $320 buy in tourney. blinds 25-50. Afew aggressive regulars in seats 6, 8 and 9. Seats 1 and 4 are the only really tight players. Apestyles has a solid aggressive image.

seat 1 SB 2734
seat 2 BB 3325
seat 3     3550
seat 4     2711
seat 5     981
seat 6     4828
seat 7     4236 (apestyles)
seat 8     2915
btn         1720

seat 4 raises to 150. (Playing very tight). Apestyles calls 150. Flop is 8c 5c 2c.

Seat 4 makes a cbet of 300 into 375 pot (total 675)

Apestyles raises to 800 and seat 4 reraises all in for 1761 more. Apestyles....?

What do we have...I can"t see it?

I think we have JJ and fold if our reads r tht he has been "very tight."  How can we be in good shape?

I agree...but do we have the jc ?

And if we do, does it change our opinion? The V has played this very strong throughout, we have to credit him with a monster here.

But we"ve put in nearly 25% of our stack with JJ. Personally, I would have re-raised pre-flop to evaluate.

sorry, we have Jc and Js
