$2.20 MTT AKo pre and post OOP

hi there,

imo i would just flat the AK there to that 250 reraise trying to control the pot, check-call flop (but only a decent bet, not a shove) since u only have a gut shot, on that turn i was never folding a shove

imo as played about the c-bet flop... u only have a gutshot draw on a multiway pot with a very coordinated board, so i think no c-bet here, if u do it, u gonna have a reraise shove almost for sure, these limits ppl tend to shove a lot with gutshots for str8s, open-ended str8s, flushdraws, etc

dont forget u still very deep in bb, u have time to play and get some good flops/boards, no need to go crazy iet

Hey John!

I need to disagree with pr0teus! You beat his iso-raising range with ak and you you're oop and if you flat here the limpers are going to call too. Then you have a 4way pot with ako and without initiative!

On lowlimits a 3bet should be really standard here! but bigger like at least 750! First openraiser is getting such goods odds!

As played ch/f flop is fine!

Hi Tiltberger,
and u are right, i need to drop these line is some tourneys, made this wice today and got pissed in the end.

I shove pre because its a 2$ tourney and I have ak and its hard to play oop with. Im 100% serious and I think its optimal if not close to and saves you headachs

Imo you lose a ton of value here with a shove against an 85bb stack...

Unless they call with ax or q high which they will alot because its monopoly money 85 is a little much but its definitely optimal if your a beginner who lacks postflop skills as you would expect of a player playing 2$ mtt's. Its standard vs rec players at any mtt sng stake (75bbatlvl1). Not to be cocky but to prove im not a madman im a 7-15$ leaderboard player and im pretty positive most of the other 19 players do the same. That being said I take it back he shouldn't do this because of his development as a player.

Also not a turbo but we still want to avoid marginal spots (like ak oop in 3/4 bet pots) before antes

Thanks, Tiltberger and Targetme!
