This is my first 2+2 post, and I wanted it to be a testament of my own stupidity. $5.50 Tourney on HollywoodPoker.com. Hero is at T7000 with the blinds at T150-$300.
Five people left, with the remaining chips even between them.
I get AKs in the BB. Two limpers. Hero raises to $1000 to go. First limper folds, next limper all-in for T2800 more. What do you do? You fold, because you're cooler than me and because you know that it's probably a coin toss.
Well, I called and he flipped AA. And he won. And I was left with T1600 that I could not turn into ITM. And if the math doesn't add up, don't get all freaky with me. I'm sure my brain is frazzeld from the post-traumatic stress disorder.
Why did I call? Because things had been grinding along for a while, this guy had made several all-in steals of pots before, I was on reverse tilt (the I-AM-THAT-POKER-I-I-AM kind of thinking) because of some great reads earlier, and so I thought, I'm going to make this guy pay for his aggressiveness. Well, instead, he made me pay for my Cally-Wallyness.
Damn it.
