Hi,

i am wondering i should 4bet allin here or fold and hope for a better spot later in the tournament to push allin.

I think in the best case he pushes here with 8/8+ but i think realistic its just AQ+ JJ+

Its really early in the tournament 149/163 entrants.

What do you think? Is there a way to fold this hand?

Thanks for your thoughts


PokerStars - 50/100 Ante 15 NL - Holdem - 8 players

UTG: 3,810 (38.1 bb)
UTG+1: 4,860 (48.6 bb)
MP: 4,960 (49.6 bb)
MP+1: 4,805 (48.1 bb)
CO: 5,000 (50 bb)
BTN: 4,805 (48.1 bb)
Hero (SB): 4,840 (48.4 bb)
BB: 12,745 (127.5 bb)

8 players post ante of 15, Hero posts SB 50, BB posts 100

Pre Flop: (pot: 270) Hero has 10,10
2 folds, MP raises to 200, fold, CO calls 200, fold, Hero raises to 800, BB raises to 2,920, 2 folds, Hero raises to 4,825 and is all-in, BB calls 1,905

BB see raise from medium position, call and your re-raise and decided to make all-in, easy fold for me

With the cold 4 bet from the BB, I think your 10s could be in very bad shape. Fold.

I think your 3 bet sizing is a bit large and I also think you are crushed. FOLD!!!

Thanks for the reply how would you size a 3bet vs an Open raise and one call? Really appreciate your opinion

I think your 3bet sizing is ok, if not on the small side. 3x the original raise plus 1 for the caller seems decent and you are oop too. (which means you want to make it expensive for them to see the flop)
Then after the 4bet you have an easy fold.
Don't make fancy thoughts, run away xD.

I like the 3-bet sizing, but when you get another player cold 4 shoving, it is time to cut our losses here and fold.

I agree with all those, who say fold. Very few players in the micros are capable of cold 4-betting as a bluff, and TT is absolutely crushed by the range, people typically 4-bet for value. Also with 8BB in the pot and 40BB left behind, you are getting a terrible price.

If I'm 3 betting in this spot, it would be to 1899.

My apologies, I just looked back on the hand and realized I read it incorrectly. Disregard my comment about the 3 bet sizing. It was his 4 bet sizing that seemed large to me.

I don't see a lot of situations where you are ahead. your best Chance is a flip vs AK i guess.


not worth to gamble for a small Bounty with a 50bb stack and 10 10


I would fold

I fold too too many times I seen 4 bet shove turn up with KK just want action wi9th sucker to call with AK. only hand with 30 percent equity against him
