I have one more hand to share from the recent €5K buy-in European Poker Tour event from which we’ve been looking at hands lately, one that involves some thinking about preflop hand ranges and how to play premium hands.
In this one the blinds were 500/1,000 with a 100 ante, and the hand began with me looking down at from early position. I raised to 2,500 and it folded to a tight, older player in the cutoff who three-bet to 6,300. He and I both were deep-stacked with around 80,000 to begin the hand, with him outchipping me by a little.
