I think your playing WAY too agresssive. Remember the goal of DoN's is to make the cash. It doesn't matter if you have the most chips or the least chips, the point is that you make it.

I think your preflop raise is big although it isn't bad. if you would follow the 3+1 per limper rule you should bet 150. I think the huge raise on the flop is just risking too many chips on air though. I would probably just call it and if you do raise fold to the reraise you only have A high.

Although i might be wrong, maybe it would be smart to reraise on the flop. I haven't played that many DoN's yet. But i do have to say that UTG+1 bet of 30 on the flop shows he's a fish. It's just a horrible bet and just doesn't make sense.

Well yes but I do apply the 4BB +1 rule as you see there are 2 callers before me. So my thoughts betting 1/2 Pot on the flop is to see if actually someone have hit something. But yeah I think I should have folded on the reraise.

I tried to do the maths on this. Would be nice if someone could say if this is correct.

If I call him on the All-In I would have 3-1 Pot Odds

My outs are: AAAKKK = 6

52 - 5 = 47 - 6 = 41

41/6= ~7-1

7-1 > 3-1 = Fold


your pot odds calculation is correct.

a quick way to do it is

multiply the number of outs on the turn by 4 = % hit
multiply the number of outs on the river by 2 = % hit

then compare that to your pot odds to decide if you can call.

pre: 150 is fine.

flop: normally i would raise that min-donk BUT the problem here is villain is so short that if he shoves it really sucks having to fold when you would almost have the correct odds to call.

so in this case i would just call him down for the small bets and fold if i miss.
