Two hands from 3-table $30 MTT on party last night. Final table. Table seems very tight. Few flops seen.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (8 handed)
MP2 (t5622)
CO (t2716)
Button (t2976)
SB (t4802)
Hero (t3707)
UTG (t4894)
UTG+1 (t3935)
MP1 (t1348)
Preflop: Hero is BB with 9/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
<font color="CC3333">UTG raises to t2000</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, <font color="CC3333">CO raises to t2716 (All-In)</font>, Button folds, SB folds, Hero folds, UTG calls t716.
Flop: (t6332) 5/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 9/images/graemlins/club.gif, 6/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>
Turn: (t6332) A/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>
River: (t6332) 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>
Final Pot: t6332
Results
UTG shows Ac Qh (two pair, aces and nines).
CO shows 4c 4h (two pair, nines and fours).
Outcome: UTG wins t6332. </font>
So, good laydown pre-flop? Would have left me with 1/3 of my stack and fairly crippled had I lost the hand. Thought the 99 was weak given a caller already, and, of course, had no crystal ball to see the quads coming. (darn it!)
Now, down to 6 players and 5 are ITM. Many hands go by with 1 raise and all fold.:
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t1000 (6 handed)
CO (t7222)
Button (t4552)
SB (t7602)
Hero (t4807)
UTG (t4421)
MP (t1396)
Preflop: Hero is BB with Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="CC3333">UTG raises to t4421 (All-In)</font>, MP folds, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, Hero calls t3421.
Flop: (t9342) J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, J/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 6/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>
Turn: (t9342) K/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>
River: (t9342) 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>
Final Pot: t9342
Results:
UTG shows 6h Ah (two pair, jacks and sixes).
Hero shows Qh Ac (one pair, jacks).
Outcome: UTG wins t9342. </font>
So, very dumb, right? MP was pretty short stacked and I just needed some more patience to get in the money. Funny how I would call this guy with AQ (and actually get the best of it) yet fold the 99 above. All thoughts welcome. Fire away.....
