Silver Level
2nd level of a live $530 buy in tourney. starting stacks are 10,000 and I have 11,000. Blinds are 50/100
folds to the Cutoff who has 10k. He makes it 250.
He is a very solid, TAG. good player, doesn't get out of line too much, especially early in a tourney he is just biding his time waiting for sets and monsters while collecting reads. He is actually a very similar player to me. I played with him all day 2 days ago and I feel like he probably has respect for my game.
I am on the Button and look down at . I reraise to 700
Blinds fold, he re-raises to 2,100. I decide he MUST have Kings. It's a slight possibility he has QQ or AA or AK. I'm pretty sure he would just flat my 3bet with JJ or AQ. I decide to just flat instead of 5bet because I've got the button and I know what he has so I should be able to control the pot and make good decisions.
Pot contains 4,350
Flop comes
barf!
He checks, I don't fall for his trap and I check.
turn is and he leads out for 2,100.
Now...I'm pretty sure he has a set of Kings. But I just picked up the nut flush draw and it is mildly possible he has AA or AK. Also, if he has the then I might have implied odds if I make my flush.
should I call?
