Message: [QUOTE="Joe, post: 6459931, member: 193663"] Hi redboy23, Please allow me to thank and congratulate you on your exceptional thread! ❤️ The O.P. is beautifully and perfectly composed, offering an excellent spot for review, leaving the result unknown, encouraging discussion, debate and learning! Having read through some of the interesting replies, down to your second post offering the hand replay link, I decided to stop at that point (without revealing the outcome), offer you my thoughts and am impressed/grateful to be able to do so thanks to how you have organised the topic! (y) Firstly, [I]generally[/I] in this position/game you wouldn't need much consideration here (if you had not already snapped) before [I]calling[/I] and most of the time you'll be dominating Ax, hoping heart draws bricks out, be against some outlandishly-zany holding which is close to dead in the water or chopping. With that being said, in this kind of spot generally (i.e. [I]not[/I] in a freeroll), so early in a tournament and with our tourney life at risk, I feel like we can justify [B]both[/B] calling and folding legitimately. Against this specific CC'er though, some further consideration is required... :) We are losing to AA, TT, 44, A4, AT and T4. Which [I]precise[/I] one of those is Mootso hiding on this occasion? Well it could be [I]any[/I] of them, my money would be on TT, AsTs or As4s but I'm fairly certain it'll be one of the holdings we don't want to see - [B]ahead[/B]. KhQh, KhJh, QhJh and the 2h-5h combinations all have pretty big draws and although I don't think Mootso is making this play with these hands, when against a random opponent, we don't [I]hold[/I] enough against these nutty players for my personal liking - although we do have enough equity to feel good about how we played and secured in the knowledge that in the long run we'll be far more profitable than our villain.. :) Anyway, I think that about wraps it up for me, in summary- folding and calling can both be justified here purely because it's so early but Vs this specific player we've luckily got unlucky and folding will side-step a cooler. Now I get to see how right/wrong I am!! :geek: ~EDiT:- [B]NAILED[/B] it! Wish I didn't bother adding the [I]afterthought[/I] AsTs & As4s now and just trusted my gut - Squirrels have the soul reads like that! 🥳 [/QUOTE]
