You do that and you've got about 5BBs left. Link to post Share on other sites
RDog 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I'm in. Let's hope that if they have problems again today, I don't bust out with AA vs. AQ right before the problems. Link to post Share on other sites

TheCinciKid 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Question for Zimmer and anyone else who's played this tournament multiple times. Is there a point at which the blinds become worth stealing? And is it safe to say that there is very little point in stealing the blinds in the first hour? Link to post Share on other sites
Lpyle04 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 For you guys that have any questions about stratagy or anything like that feel free to PM me with questions. I'm only playing these tourney's today and I could use something else to do Link to post Share on other sites

However, it soon gets to the point where the blinds are too large to small, as a steal attempt basically committs yourself to the pot. It is a delicate balance. Link to post Share on other sites

Andersun 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I'm playing in a tourney and i got your table opened, Cinci.GL in your first big tourney. Link to post Share on other sites
Lpyle04 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I don't know what the hell just happened but I had flopped an open ended str8 flush draw and bet, then it seemed to take a long time and when i clicked on the screen it skipped the turn and had called an all in so now I have 2600 but i don't know why.

joelav128 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 bumped down to 1235as ad in bb raise to 120flop 2s 3s 4s all in vs 33 no spade/5 Link to post Share on other sites
TheCinciKid 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I'd worked my way up to 2k when the following happened. One limper with a 3k stack and I raise to 100 with 99. Only the limper calls. Flop come T83 with 2 spades, he checks I bet 130 into the 230 pot and he calls. Turn is a blank, I bet 250 and he calls again. River Ten of spades, he pushes all-in and I fold. Back down to around 1500. Link to post Share on other sites

Lpyle04 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 AA again but got cracked by 78.... 1500 chips Link to post Share on other sites
TheCinciKid 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Well, just blew most of my stack when I limped with QTs and flopped top two pair on a board of QT8 all spades, UTG bet, I raised and the BB moved all-in for about 600 more. I figured his most likely hand was something like top pair with a spade draw and called. He had J9, I'm a donkey and down to 340. Link to post Share on other sites
