COULD SOMEONE HELP ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO EXPLAIN THESE HANDS SO THEY ARE EASY TO READ AS WELL AS GETTING THE NEEDED INFO IN THE POST?​


The hand starts with a full table, blinds are 3000-6000 table stacks range from 40,000 to 205,000. I'm in early position with 205,000 chips and :qh4::10h4: I raise 3x the big, it folds around to the button-Villain -calls, blinds fold, flop comes:kd4::jh4::as4: I'm first to act - I check, Villain bets 25,000 (oh Villain has 110,000) I call, turn :ks4: I check, villain bets 25,000, I re-raise to 50,000 villain snaps ALL-in. now at this point is my Question what cards would the Villain hold to make this play?? and can I make this call? I'll be left with around 80,000 (about average) count. the end coming.

this is an insta fold to me you 3x pre which with this being middle of tourney you are only getting called by good hands AK KJ AA KK and JJ are beating you. AQ AT QQwould not shove over a raise KQ KT QT are possible but with 5 hands beating me and 3 that I'm beating its a fold my money would say there's a boat here.

At what point in the hand did the villain have the 110,000?

He is probably in for over half his stack just like you are when you re-raise. I see him shoving with some weaker hands like including two spades with a straight draw.

I think you need to call here.
In my opinion the mistake was not being more aggressive and re-raising the flop instead of trying to trap and wait for turn at this point in the tournament.

Why does this 3x raise define the villain's call range? QTs is a good hand to play in position. This 3x raise in these blinds can be a leak. Pdcactus1 - You're playing a $ 11 tournament. What do you know about BU?

because its a low stake tournament and most people I see at this level by these blinds are only raising 2.5BB max 2.25 is the average I see. 3x is huge and most people will fold to it.

Noobs still continue to 3BB bet late in tournaments.
Source: I suck at tournaments and don't stop 3BB raising pre, I just do it less often.

What does one need to know about the BU Button/? I'm sure I have that information.

Feels like Kx. His bets are more pot control type bets. Two pair does make some sense.
