"Yes You Did" Poker Poker Poker
Same story , been doing at least 2 tourneys everyday last 3 or 4 days, done a deal heads up in a party poker mtt, cashing for $1,900 but apart from that no nice finishes. Alot of $100 here and $50 there etc.
Anyway, since i only been posting boring stuff lately I thought id tell of some important hands i played and my reasons for it.
#1 I pick up Q J os in sb late on in stars gtd mtt. Down to final 20 or so. I raise from the small blind to $48000, 3xbb. BB min riases, I am getting over 4-1 and call. Flop falls J 10 9. I check, and he moves in for something in region of $80,000. I have around $200,000 now. I know he has something strong that much is obvious. Lets say he has AA. The pot is around $230,000. And it costs me $80,000 which is around 2.8-1.And if he has AA, I am drawing to a K,Q,J,or 9. giving me 13 outs, so im a 52% chance of winning which is great odds. And its a definite call.
If he has AJ, which is possible but why the min riase? Then I have 2 less outs, so 11 outs or 44% chance of winning, again a call should be made even though I will be left with only $120,000 and the blinds being $8/16k.
If he has TTT, then I am drawing to a K or 9 which means i got 32% chance of winning.This one would be iffy, if he does have set i should mathematically fold here, cos i am only laid 2.8-1 not 3-1 but even still it wouldnt be terrible.
Then there KQ, i can only draw to a split pot, but then why would he min raise with KQ pre flop? If this is the case then a fold should definitely be made, but bearing in mind he moved all in on flop, and the min riase pre flop. i ruled this hand out completely.
Anyway, I made the crying call and he turned over AJos, which was ok i guess except I didnt improve.
I ll post some more hands next time after I return from nottingham. Ciso.
