Hi guys,
I played a hand earlier today at a final table I was at earlier today and wanted to discuss it.
I was dealt A8c in the big blind with 24 BB and 4 people left in the tournament. Action folds to button who raises to 3BB with 45 bigs, small blind calls and has 33 BB behind. I decided to 3 bet to 7.5 big blinds. Button calls and so does the small blind.
Flop comes
Small blind checks, I check. I checked for a couple of reason. So far the table had been playing pretty tight and it was unusual to get 3 players in a 3 bet pot. Because of this, I figured it might be likely one player has me outkicked and didn't want to build a big pot.
The button bets 5 BB small blind folds and I call.
Turn is
I shove my remaining10BB since I now have an open ended straight draw with top pair and the button folds. What do you think of my line? Am I playing too conservative on the flop with A8 in a four-handed game or is it better to be aggressive here? lmk what you guys think
