[fundiver199]

Hand 1 ATo
Easy fold when UTG has entered the pot.

Hand 2 Q6s
With an ante I complete pretty much any suited hand.

Hand 3 QQ
Even in a normal MTT, this is a very easy jam, and here you even have the added benefit, that you can win everybodys bounty.

Hand 4 J5o
Definitely no reason to raise preflop with junk. You flopped an OESD, but SB lead out for full pot. If he had gone smaller, I would have called, but for me this is to high a price to chase after a bad draw, so I would just fold. There are a ton of problems with continuing here:

1) SB dont have enough stack left to offer good implied odds
2) SB or UTG might have a straight already or a pair+straightdraw, in which case you are drawing to a chop
3) On a 9 AJ will still have a better straight
4) On Ac or 9c someone might make a flush
5) UTG can still raise, if you call

Hand 5 A7o
Preflop complete is fine. Dont see much reason to lead out on either flop or turn. On the river you pair up, and given that nobody have shown any interest in the hand, I would bet for value. I think, if someone had a better hand, you would have heard about it, and they can easily hero call with worse, given how small the pot still is.

Hand 6 AQo
Standard open from any seat.

Hand 7 98o
Against a min-raise I would defend this, but due to the limper the raise came in at over 3BB, and this is to much to pay to see a flop out of position with such a bad hand, especially when its likely to go multiway.

Hand 8 99
Standard open. On the flop I would probably call this, if it was heads up. If we are behind to a J or T, we at least have 6 outs, and I also think, we can be ahead of some kind of draw. I tend to discount really strong hand like sets or the flopped straight, because I dont think, the nuts is played like this very often, and I think, JJ and TT gets it in pre.

So I do kind of want to call this, but the problem is, we are not heads up, and SB have us covered. Calling here and then facing a check-raise from SB would be very unpleasant. And even if SB just call, the rest of the hand wont be particularly funny with third pair and a bad draw. So overall I let this go and hope that SB makes the call, so I get to see his hand.

Hand 9 ATo
Isolation preflop is fine but you need to go much larger than 3BB. When you make it so cheap for him, he is never folding, and then you end up is this awkward situation, where you have the initiative, but you are out of position with a not particularly great hand. The flop is kind of the same story. If you want to bet, you need to go much larger, so you give him a reason to fold. However on this particular board a lot of hands can continue, so I probably just check this and hope, he check behind. As played definitely check the turn. As played check the river and fold to any substantial bet.

Hand 10 AJs
I prefer 3-betting, but calling is also a profitable play. Check-calling flop is fine. Its cheap, you beat some bluffs, and you have a BDFD. Check-fold turn.

Hand 11 T2o
Fold preflop. Check flop and turn is turn. Check river is fine, although there might be some merits for a small value bet as well with the third nut flush. Facing the large bet from original raiser, its kind of close. You are closing action, which is good, but it seem kind of unlikely, that he is doing this for value with a hand worse than yours, so you basically have a bluff catcher.

There are certainly value hands, that could be played like this, be it a hand like KJ with K or J of spades, that did not want to bluff multiway, 99 which got there, or some slowplayed boat like 55 or AQ. On the other hand its kind of weird for the preflop raiser to give up his betting lead, let both flop and turn check through, and then just suddenly decide to randomly bluff the river in a multiway pot, which the board runs out with 4 to a flush.

So all in all I dont think, calling is a big mistake, but I probably lean towards a fold without some more info on the Villain. If he is someone, who tend to overplay his hands, then we have to call here and make him show it to us. But against a more standard player, are we good here 30% of the time? I tend to not think so.

Hand 12 JJ
This one is closer than hand 3, because you only have JJ, and you are 38BB deep against UTG. In a normal tournament I might fold this especially if UTG is a tight player. But in a PKO I think, we just need to get it in here and gamble. Ideally everyone folds, and we play a heads-up pot with SB for half our chips and his bounty. But even when someone calls, its not the end of the world, because they are going to be calling wider chasing after both ours and SBs bounty. Its also quite likely, UTG could be opening wider than normal ranges, because he has such a big stack, and the field callers are essentially dead money.

Hand 13 JJ
Given that you are UTG+1 and facing an UTG open, I would also just call. With the action behind you need to fold, unless both these guys are complete maniacs.

hand #2 could be a 3-bet if you were playing tight prior to this hand. seems like a good hand to take a fpop with.

 

[fundiver199]

Hand 14 KJo
Slightly marginal open. If a lot of 3-betting was going on, I lean towards just folding this hand pre. As played standard C-bet and easy call. He should never have two pair on this board, so you only lose to 66, 22, KQ and a very rare slowplayed AK/AA type hand. Him moving all in also looks bluffy, especially since he is much deeper with BB. I dont think, sets or top pair play like this very often, so to me this looks much more like a flushdraw, that wants both of you to fold, and if he get action, at least he has decent equity.

Hand 15 QQ
Standard open. Postflop you need to check back either flop or turn, so as played check back turn and then make a decision on the river.

Hand 16 TT
In a normal MTT we could just fold this, but in a PKO event MP+1 will have a much wider 3-betting range, because he is trying to isolate the all-in player and win his bounty. And that bounty is also added value for us as well. So in a PKO this is an easy jam and hope to run good.

Hand 17 55
Out of position setmining is typically not all that profitable, so its actually fine to just fold this pre, but calling is not a huge mistake. Check-raise flop is fine. Turn brings a 1-liner, but when we think about a typical MP opening range, which hands can he actually have, that has a straight? There is 77, A2 of hearts and maybe 87s, 76s, but the latter are a very loose open from MP. So this card is not quite as scary for us, as it might seem. It is however an action killer, because we can more easily have it, so if we jam it in now, we might get an overpair to fold. So I think, checking is our best option now, and then hope for a clean river card, if he check behind. I am pretty much never check-folding this, because even if he has a straight, we still have 10 outs to boat up.

Hand 18 JJ
Just calling pre is way less profitable than 3-betting and makes the hand much more difficult to play. Sometimes the decision is close, but not 3-betting here is a very substantial mistake. If you want to mix in a slowplay, do it with AA or maybe KK, since these hands are less vulnerable and easier to play post. Check-call flop is fine. Leading turn is really weird and bizarre. Are you turning your hand into a bluff now trying to pretend, you have 777, so that he will fold a Q, when you bet 1/4 pot? Or is it some sort of block bet? I cant even say, what I would do on the river, because this is just such a bizarre way to play the earlier streets, and you should never arrive to the river like this. But I guess check-fold? Of all the hands, you shared in this thread, this is by far the most misplayed, and it started preflop.

Hand 19 AKo
Easy 3-bet, get it in against a 4-bet.

Hand 20 AJo
Standard open.

Hand 21 QQ
Standard open and I would go for a min-raise. You are still to deep to open jam, and with this hand you actually want someone to rejam on you, because that will give you a great opportunity to snap them off and hopefully dubble up.

Definitely no reason to raise preflop with junk. You flopped an OESD, but SB lead out for full pot. If he had gone smaller, I would have called, but for me this is to high a price to chase after a bad draw, so I would just fold. There are a ton of problems with continuing here:

1) SB dont have enough stack left to offer good implied odds
2) SB or UTG might have a straight already or a pair+straightdraw, in which case you are drawing to a chop
3) On a 9 AJ will still have a better straight
4) On Ac or 9c someone might make a flush
5) UTG can still raise, if you call

Preflop complete is fine. Dont see much reason to lead out on either flop or turn. On the river you pair up, and given that nobody have shown any interest in the hand, I would bet for value. I think, if someone had a better hand, you would have heard about it, and they can easily hero call with worse, given how small the pot still is.

Against a min-raise I would defend this, but due to the limper the raise came in at over 3BB, and this is to much to pay to see a flop out of position with such a bad hand, especially when its likely to go multiway.

Standard open. On the flop I would probably call this, if it was heads up. If we are behind to a J or T, we at least have 6 outs, and I also think, we can be ahead of some kind of draw.

So I do kind of want to call this, but the problem is, we are not heads up, and SB have us covered. Calling here and then facing a check-raise from SB would be very unpleasant.

Fold preflop. Check flop and turn is turn. Check river is fine, although there might be some merits for a small value bet as well with the third nut flush. Facing the large bet from original raiser, its kind of close. You are closing action, which is good, but it seem kind of unlikely, that he is doing this for value with a hand worse than yours, so you basically have a bluff catcher.

This one is closer than hand 3, because you only have JJ, and you are 38BB deep against UTG. In a normal tournament I might fold this especially if UTG is a tight player. But in a PKO I think, we just need to get it in here and gamble. Ideally everyone folds, and we play a heads-up pot with SB for half our chips and his bounty. But even when someone calls, its not the end of the world, because they are going to be calling wider chasing after both ours and SBs bounty. Its also quite likely, UTG could be opening wider than normal ranges, because he has such a big stack, and the field callers are essentially dead money.

Hand 2 Q6s
With a flushdraw I would do a lot of leading in a limped pot. There is no initiative, so there is not the same need to "check to the raiser" as in a normal pot. As played leading turn is fine, when they check back, but your sizing is much to small. You want to give them a reason to fold, not just massage the pot bigger. The other problem is, once you started using this size, it will be kind of obvious, if you size up, when you hit. I guess, this is why, you also went so small on the river, and this is missing out on a ton of value.

Hand 4 J5o
The result is a good illustration of, why I would fold to that flop bet. You were in fact against a pair+draw, which mean, you had 8 outs to chop the pot and none to win. You also only got to see 1 card, since the rest of the chips went in on the turn, and obviously you could not call that jam.

Hand 5 A7o
So you did in fact have the best hand, and I think not getting that value bet in on the river is leaving some money on the table. Maybe they would have folded, but by betting you at least give them a chance to pay off.

Hand 11 T2o
So he did in fact have a random bluff. Nice call

Hand 12 JJ
If you overjam, you might actually get AQo to fold, and then you would have scooped the pot against TT. And if not you would have gotten it in with decent equity in both the main pot and the side pot, and it would just have been an unlucky runout. After seeing the results I still think, this fold is to tight.

Hand 13 JJ
After seeing the results I still like this fold. Obviously getting it in against AK and AQ is a great spot for JJ. But realistically BTNs range for overjamming is probably AK and QQ+, so this was the absolute best case scenario, and overall you would be making a losing call with JJ. Its way different, if BTN had folded. Then you are probably slightly ahead of MP+1s jamming range, and you should make the call, if it folds around to you.

Hand 14 KJo
Slightly marginal open. If a lot of 3-betting was going on, I lean towards just folding this hand pre. As played standard C-bet and easy call. He should never have two pair on this board, so you only lose to 66, 22, KQ and a very rare slowplayed AK/AA type hand. Him moving all in also looks bluffy, especially since he is much deeper with BB. I dont think, sets or top pair play like this very often, so to me this looks much more like a flushdraw, that wants both of you to fold, and if he get action, at least he has decent equity.

Standard open. Postflop you need to check back either flop or turn, so as played check back turn and then make a decision on the river.

Hand 16 TT
In a normal MTT we could just fold this, but in a PKO event MP+1 will have a much wider 3-betting range, because he is trying to isolate the all-in player and win his bounty. And that bounty is also added value for us as well. So in a PKO this is an easy jam and hope to run good.

Hand 17 55

Out of position setmining is typically not all that profitable, so its actually fine to just fold this pre, but calling is not a huge mistake. Check-raise flop is fine. Turn brings a 1-liner, but when we think about a typical MP opening range, which hands can he actually have, that has a straight? There is 77, A2 of hearts and maybe 87s, 76s, but the latter are a very loose open from MP. So this card is not quite as scary for us, as it might seem. It is however an action killer, because we can more easily have it, so if we jam it in now, we might get an overpair to fold. So I think, checking is our best option now, and then hope for a clean river card, if he check behind. I am pretty much never check-folding this, because even if he has a straight, we still have 10 outs to boat up.

Hand 18 JJ

Just calling pre is way less profitable than 3-betting and makes the hand much more difficult to play. Sometimes the decision is close, but not 3-betting here is a very substantial mistake. If you want to mix in a slowplay, do it with AA or maybe KK, since these hands are less vulnerable and easier to play post. Check-call flop is fine. Leading turn is really weird and bizarre. Are you turning your hand into a bluff now trying to pretend, you have 777, so that he will fold a Q, when you bet 1/4 pot? Or is it some sort of block bet? I cant even say, what I would do on the river, because this is just such a bizarre way to play the earlier streets, and you should never arrive to the river like this. But I guess check-fold? Of all the hands, you shared in this thread, this is by far the most misplayed, and it started preflop.

Standard open and I would go for a min-raise. You are still to deep to open jam, and with this hand you actually want someone to rejam on you, because that will give you a great opportunity to snap them off and hopefully dubble up.
