Card Player is excited to announce a partnership with the Bicycle Casino and Live at the Bike, the industry’s leading live cash game webcast.

CardPlayer.com will host the live cash game streams for all Live at the Bike webcasts (every Tuesday and Friday, 7:30-10:30 p.m. PST) and also partner with Live at the Bike for special programming.

To celebrate the partnership, Card Player will be bringing you the cash game hand of the week, featured from a past episode of Live at the Bike.

Here’s a look at this week’s hand.

The Details

Game: $5-$10, $500 buy-in uncapped no-limit hold’em
Approximate Stack Sizes: Troy ($2,100), David ($2,100), Teddy ($450)

Action: Troy raised to $35 from middle position and Teddy called from the small blind. David then three-bet to $155 from the big blind and Troy reraised to $360.

Teddy folded and David five-bet to $780. Troy then moved all in for $2,100 and David immediately called for about the same amount. David held AClub Suit KDiamond Suit and Troy was in major trouble with KClub Suit 4Club Suit.

The board ran out QSpade Suit 9Club Suit 4Spade Suit QHeart Suit KSpade Suit and David won the pot with his ace kicker.

The Questions

Would Troy be better off calling David’s three-bet preflop because he would’ve had position throughout the hand, or was he in a strictly raise or fold situation? Given Teddy’s short stack, was it wise for Troy to four-bet to $360 and commit himself if she were to move all in? After David five-bets to $780, does Troy have any fold equity given his stack size?
