$Freeroll NL HE Turbo: Free Roll NL HE Turbo: 4 blind raise UTG, followed by 2.5 times reraise and caller
Ok, so one player who is under the gun raises it to a little under 4 blinds. He is rather loose/aggressive so I did not put him on a monster hand. The player to his immediate left reraises hi to 2.5 times the amount. This player is a complete fish, raises with crap and plays crap. Just a real bad player. The player to his left then calls his raise. This player is probably worse, calls WAY too much(he called a persons all in preflop with J4 when they both had like 20 blinds...) Then it is up to me. I look down and see AQ looking back at me. What should I do in this position?
I had 4200 chips and the raise was 1000. I was a little above average in chips. Calling was out of the question; I would not hit enough to make that profitable. I was rather confident that the two fish would call, even though I thought they would have nothing much, I was more concerned with the player who originally raised. I ended up pushing all in, as I reasoned that only 4 hands beat AQ: QQ, KK, AA, AK, and I doubted any had those hands.
Another player who had under 500 chips called with A10, the original raiser folded his 77, the reraiser fish called with his QQ
o) and the other fish called with his k6 suited. The k6 suited hit his flush and it made me question if I made the right move. I do believe I would be ahead of them the majority of the time; however, even crap hands can win. What I am getting at his even though I would win more than not there I believe, it sure is a risky move, when I could wait for a better position, especially since I was slightly ahead.
Thanks in advance for any comments!
