| Well played. Once john_cnl called, your hand lost a lot of value in the main pot as AK tends to have the most value heads-up. Nothing you could have done about it though... |

i don't know about your raise of the reraise (although you got all of your money in when you had the best hand). i assume you were trying to isolate the reraiser and were surprised when john_cnl called?
looks like good straight-forward play. |

Thanks for the answer, you perfectly adressed my main question. I know this was correct in a tournament. But a ring game is a different story. We had talked in an earlier thread about creating your own +EV by creating a side pot. This is one of those situations? |

Yes. This was me playing right out of a tournament. I didn't want anyone to call, so I re-raised all in. Hoping to scare others off. I didn't, but I had a heads up on the side pot (which a heads up is what I wanted anyway) |

That more applies to limit where there are more little oportunities to drive value from a given position.
Here, you either want John to fold leaving behind money and getting you heads-up for the main pot or make a really big mistake by calling off the rest of his stack. It's really horrible for him to call here with less than AA/KK. Even QQ doesn't have much 3-way equity against your range of hands.
Good job setting up the lose/lose situation. |

But as I mentioned to Fishstick. I want my AK to go heads up (Tournament Humphrind here) and so by creating a side pot, and for this amount, I am going heads-up regardless. Either john folds and I go heads up against 1 person. Or john calls and I go heads up for the side pot and 3-way for the main pot. Either way I get what I want. Heads up for a pot.
Tell me what is flawed with this train of thought. |
