mgm-2-5
i have like 5 something. crazy raiser declares last hand before he leaves. i call in last position with 87s. 1 other caller. he is first to act. raiser is in the middle. flop comes 338. check, bet 25, i raise to 75. smooth call. guy says if this is 50 here, then i call. it was exactly. turn comes 9. no flush on board. 1st to act bets 100. raiser folds.
what would you do?
i pushed all in. the kid thought about if for a long while. agonizing about it. fake folding, almost wanting to cry. just trying to get a read on me. he exposes jj and folds.
now in retrospect this was a bad move because he had only like 175 left. and i only raised 225. he was totally pot commited, but i just smelled weakness.
i haven't been caught bluffing in like my last 10 attempts. i haven't been doing it much, but when i do, it was because i spotted something from the remaining players that just was weak. i think the key was i played really tight and only had good cards when i won the pot.
either way, it worked. mabye i won't try again for a while when i know i'm beat.
but i guess that's what it's all about. making the wrong move at the right time.
walked up 6 then lost a buck at hooties getting my hours. i don't think i'm going to worry about the free rolls any more. it just seems like a waste of time when i'm being successful with the big boys.

Without any other information, I would have folded to the $100. You have a nice hand, but no kicker and no real chance of improving.
You must have sensed some weakness to push like that. I guess it is as much about the strength that you conveyed as the weakness he conveyed.
The real question is, if you were him could you have laid down the jacks?
