This hand just came up a few minutes ago, and I wanted to share it with you guys. Pre-flop I know our hand is marginal but I won’t easily pass up an opportunity to play a pot in position this deep. The flop hits us pretty well but I’m a bit concerned when our opponent pots it into us.

With 100 bbs I think when we raise the flop our opponent gets to decide if he wants to play for stacks or not. We will probably have to call a shove after we raise because of all the money in the pot, although I wouldn’t ever expect us to be ahead. I guess that’s an innate structural problem to this hand and that’s why it may not be worth to play that often with 100 bbs.

With 200 bbs I think we can also raise the flop, although I would still flat sometimes with out actual hand because of the 66s (I’d still raise with Ts98*s). This is because if he raises we have to put in about half our remaining stack and are probably committed to playing for stacks, or we forfeit our considerable equity. And I would expect his 3bet on the flop to be significantly stronger than with 100 bbs.

At 300 bbs deep though, I think raising the flop is again clearly correct because even if he 3bet-pots it we can call and have more than 1 PSB left on the turn to decide if we want to stack off. It puts him in a very difficult spot on a lot of turns that improve my raise-flat range on the flop and for that same reason he shouldn’t be able to 3bet on the flop a huge part of his range. We also kind of NEED to raise on the flop to start building a pot in position.

Thoughts?
