SpiderGuard 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 If the crazy guy was really playing bully, you should have called. He wanted you to fold obviously. Even if you had busted, at least it was with pocket queens (a starting premium hand).You can debate what he should do with the pocket queens (again, I think villain's hand is AA/KK *FAR* more than many people give him credit for), and reasonable people can disagree. But why does it matter what hand he busts with? Does he get part of his buy-in back if he busts with a premium starting hand? Does he get style points from the East German judge? Reasonable people can disagree on how he played that hand, but the idea that it's better to bust out with pocket queens than pocket tens is somewhat odd to me. Link to post Share on other sites

He should push or just call preflop in that hand, but going broke with Queens against an aggro-donk aipf when it appears that A-Mak needs to work on his post-flop game is acceptable.

She had slipped to 10K.A couple of hands later, she made a move with Ah6s and unfortunately ran into a player with AsAd. Her hand could not improve on a board of 7s7h4dKc6h and she headed to the rail.How do I get the graphics from Pokernews to work? Link to post Share on other sites
PMJackson21 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I didn't get a chance to post yesterday, but I ended the day with 51,200. Was up to 32k at dinner, down to 18k, then doubled with KK>JJ to 37k. Knocked a guy out with AK vs 99 (k on riv) to get to 57k or so, and had that going to the last level of the night. Things took a turn for the worse when I tried to move QQ off a king high board unsuccessfully, and then I got snapped off on a continuation bet to drop to 31k or so.With like 15 minutes left in the night, I re-stole with KJ to get back to 37k or so, then with 5 min left I raised in ep with AK. Both the sb and the bb called and the flop came T-6-6. They checked, I bet 5k, and the sb thought forever before mucking. However, the bb min-raised to 10k, so like the nit I am, I insta-shoved?!?!? for 20k more (I have AA obvvvvv sir) and he mucked pretty quickly. Weeeeeeeeee...Table 25, seat 4 on Tuesday.

dynamoz123 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Hello everybody, seems like I'm getting a lot of heat for folding the queens. Doesn't my brilliant fold (or maybe it wasn't so brilliant in retrospect...) with the AK kinda offset the seemingly horrible fold with the queens? Yet, no one commented on that...you guys/gals are so hard to please...Somehow I imagine that if I did call on that hand and he did turn up aces, instead of reading 'gg sir, at least you went out with queens', it'd be more like 'ZOMGWTFBBQ, that's obviously aces man, how you not fold that you donkey!'. LOL. Anyway, let's see if I can clear some things up. The player was not aggressive at all. He just sporadically pushed all in, most of the time he's the first one in the pot (I'm guessing that's what open pushing means?). Other than those odd times, he seemed like a weak-tight player. That certainly did not represent 40% of my chips, more like 20% or so, I had 14k/15k after that hand. Coupled with the tight image I had, I just put him on AA/KK. Now that I've had more time to evaluate and reflect on the hands, especially seeing the hand he exited on (which was just as perplexing), I might be leaning towards calling him. In the AK hand in which I pushed on the turn, he was to my immediate right so there were at least the blinds still to act and possibly limpers, I can't quite remember. I think a big part of why I didn't put him all in preflop, was a lot of negative hands I've had re-raising with AK preflop. Obviously it shouldn't have any effect on how I play it but it did. In general though, with AK, if it has been raised preflop, I like to call and see the flop, because really it's only ace high.I do regret my last hand however. I could've made a smaller bet as I think I had enough chips so I wouldn't be committed but then again I may be saying this after seeing the results. I think I've just about covered everything. I do wish I had some better hands or at least some better flops. I had QQ once, AK twice, 10s three times (in which I won one hand). Oh, one more thing of interest. I picked up my favorite hand my very first hand (8-10) but I elected to fold as someone had raised (I guess it should bet, forgive my lack of poker terminology as well as poker knowledge). The flop came 7-9-J rainbow. In the back of my mind, I thought this was a bad omen...Anyway, good luck to any FCPers still in it or are going to play! Link to post Share on other sites
zimmer4141 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Anthony, if you called with QQ against a player who seems like a maniac, nobody would make fun of you for calling there, even if he did have AA or KK.IMO, taking the position that you like to call with AK because it is "just A high" is somewhat incorrect because it is still far ahead of the raising range of most players, even a range that includes all pairs.It seemed like you won the Protege final table by being aggressive preflop and preying on weakness, while you seem to have gotten away from that after becoming DN's protege. Just do whatever you feel comfortable with at the tables. Best of luck to you. Link to post Share on other sites
mase_gotsem 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 in no way will i ever criticise u for putting him all in with QQ im just saying from how it was written that might of been the best play , if i was there in your spot and i feel AA/kk and its going to hurt me big time if i call and lose i can insta fold there also .all of my comments were in no way to berate or offend u , u got alot of potential and i think u can go far in poker, its just that in the back of my mind i feel u might of gotten some information that has effected your play if not great if so play how u feel comfortable not everyone has same thought procces or style , stick with it you definetly had a great time im sure and u have had the best learning experiance possible which is being there .gl with it and dont let little comments bug ya Link to post Share on other sites

ObeyTheDog 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Well I couldn't find SuitedUp for any updates, but I ended the day today with 64,200.Was an up and down day. I got up to 50k before the end of level 2.In level 3, I got QQ and raised, BB called. Flop came 6-6-2 rainbow and he led out for 1600, I minraised to 3200 and he shoved for 12k with AQ. I called, but the turn was an A. bah, heehaw.Same guy about 2 laps later, he raises to 900, I call on the button with JJ.Flop Jc-9s-3h, he bets 1600, i raise to 4000, he calls. Turn is a 7c. He checks, I bet 7,500, he check raises to 17,500. I shove him and he goes into the tank. He has about 15k behind. He eventually calls with Ac10c for a gutshot straight draw and a flush draw. 2c on the river is OUCH for me and I'm down to 8k.But I battled very hard, made some key double ups, a very tough call with Q9 top pair of 9 high flop, and by the end of the day got it up to 64k.Ready for battle on Tuesday.

SuperJon 175 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 In a WPT tournament, Doyle Brunson called with a mere pocket treys against Patrik Antonius' ace-deuce offsuit because he got sick of being the pushover. Poker is about psychology as well, not just the cards.I guess you were short-stacked at that time so there was nothing much you could do there.You should probably mention that the Doyle vs. PA hand was at the final table, where risking your entire stack preflop with a hand like 33 can be the correct play.
