RickyG033 0 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I kinda figured the call, call line and didn't really like the line I took. I ended up shoving the turn. I felt as if he had any suited connectors he'd have raised me preflop and if he had an ace, I also would have been reraised preflop. I figured atleast my flush draw was good. I like call, call better but heres how it turned out:POKERSTARS GAME #20309924010: TOURNAMENT #107476211, $12+$1 HOLD'EM NO LIMIT - LEVEL V (75/150) - 2008/09/10 21:57:19 ETTable '107476211 1' 6-max Seat #3 is the buttonSeat 2: RickyG033 (4235 in chips) Seat 3: jtsains (155 in chips) is sitting outSeat 5: Cobra_1961 (4610 in chips) Cobra_1961: posts small blind 75RickyG033: posts big blind 150*** HOLE CARDS ***Dealt to RickyG033 [5c Kd]jtsains: folds Cobra_1961: calls 75RickyG033: checks *** FLOP *** [3d 7d 6d]Cobra_1961: bets 150RickyG033: calls 150*** TURN *** [3d 7d 6d] [4s]Cobra_1961: bets 600RickyG033: raises 3335 to 3935 and is all-inCobra_1961: calls 3335*** RIVER *** [3d 7d 6d 4s] [4d]*** SHOW DOWN ***Cobra_1961: shows [5s Kh] (a straight, Three to Seven)RickyG033: shows [5c Kd] (a flush, King high)RickyG033 collected 8470 from pot*** SUMMARY ***Total pot 8470 | Rake 0 Board [3d 7d 6d 4s 4d]Seat 2: RickyG033 (big blind) showed [5c Kd] and won (8470) with a flush, King highSeat 3: jtsains (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet)Seat 5: Cobra_1961 (small blind) showed [5s Kh] and lost with a straight, Three to Seven Link to post Share on other sites
makeyourself 0 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Well since it's been bumped how are people doing on their monthly targets?Before u waltz in here ian brag posting lol mtts don't count sir :DFinally I rally don't like the line above on that hand but as on iPhone atm can't type too much :(I think raise pre as standard, prolly win it there. Raise flop (fold to a shovel). Or c/call the whole way but lay it down if no diamond comes and he sets u in. Odd spot to be in but I think u act allowed it to get there.
