[Ogre]

im out already with AAvsAA

[LesJ]

Is it possible to go the entire first hour without seeing a flop? I'm halfway there. Best I had was SB with A, 10 o against a raise from mid position from 15 to 100
Les

[LesJ]

LOL. .
Just as I finish typing my earlier message I catch big slick suited in mid position. It took two stabs at a blank board to bring the pot down! Up to 1855 after one flop.
Les

[LesJ]

Davidross at table 41 with me just doubled up with KK against AQ. He was a little low on chips going in, however. Now at 1940.
Nice hand David!

What do you guys think here?

15 minutes into tournament, Hero is UTG+1 (t 1480)

Hero is dealt: KK

Hero raises to 100
UTG+2 calls
folds to hero

Hero?

[TheTimeIsUp]

Fix post.

It seems like you have 2 heros in that hand!
But, if you are 2nd hero, I would reraise to about 350 and push on any non Ace flop

[TheTimeIsUp]

2225 at the break

[burgi]

Last hand before the break, I double up to 2520 with QQ hitting my set on the flop against KK. Just a small raise preflop, I call, and he puts me in on the turn.

Other than that, nothing special happened!

[LesJ]

1770 at first break.

1095 at the break... haven't won a pot yet

[LesJ]

Out much earlier than I anticipated tonight. Had pocket Jacks in early position with blinds at 25/50. Raised to 300, guy in late position pushes back all-in, having my entire stack covered by about 200 chips. I used my time bank and thought way too long before I decided to call. I didn't think he had AA or KK because I would think he would have wanted to induce some action instead of running me off with an all-in. I called and he flipped over KK and the Kings held up. If I had folded I would have had roughly 1500 chips still remaining, but I really put him on a lower-mid pair or drawing hand, not AA or KK. Insta-fold here guys?
Les

[MSUcougar]

bah KK snapped off by a set of 6's...

[burgi]

3960 at break.

was already down to 1400, then doubled up with 99 vs 55 preflop allin, and the rest came through stealing blinds.

[Stipe_fan]

T3200 after break on table 13

First tournament in over 2 weeks

Good luck,

Stipe

[davidross]

I put him on AK so I probably would have called too, but I'm using that overbet move a lot now with big pairs pre-flop or flopped sets post flop. Thinking players do exactly what you did and you get a lot of calls.

Thanks for the response, David. I feel a little better about the call. I just read a post talking about all-ins pre-flop with fives and nines, which also would have made my jacks feel pretty good. I came extremely close to folding, but I really thought he was gonna flip over 10 10, 9 9 , or AK (worst case!).
How is your luck going now?
Les

[Annulus]

im with you stipe. ive had KK 3 times during 2nd hour. and i had KK first hand of 3rd hour. hopefully i will get em kowboys a few more times. T5300. Good luck.

[UATrewqaz]

2+2'ers left besides Crisp? Tables?

[burgi]

burgipoker table 29

[TheTimeIsUp]

33, short stack

[burgi]

Just lost Ak vs AQ allin preflop. Now sitting at 4330, could have been sitting at about 9000. Oh well, next hand!

[TheTimeIsUp]

Crippled to 1250 after A7 loses to QT, would have been over 5k.

[burgi]

just won a race: my JJ allin preflop against AKo
back up to 8210

[davidross]

Although you wouldn't know it tonight, I've been running pretty well. I've had some horrible breaks late in tourneys lately though that could have been some big money,(AK losing to AQ last night and AA losing to KK in the $million) but I've been winning races early on to get into cashing positions.

[burgi]

I'm running really well now:

Crispy, that hand you JUST folded (where he showed KQ) did you have a heart draw?

[Crispy]

Just won a pretty big pot when I raised all in when they were several limpers. Got called by KK in early position buy hit an A on the flop. Up to 8k now. Gigabets at my table too...im scared T_T haha.

[burgi]

Depends on the read, but without a read I think this is an easy call.

in retrospect, I think so as well. I just didn't think so when faced with the decision.
First of all, I raised a couple times before within the last 2 orbits, so villain must have a pretty loose read on me.
In addition, there is already my 1200 and the BB (400) in the pot and I would have to call about 4000 to win 11000.
I had no read on Villain, as I only got to the table 2 orbits before this hand came up, and villain wasn't involved in any hands yet, as far as I remember.

So, at the time, I thought I was dominated, which is why I folded, but now, I don't like it because even if I lose, I'm still at about 10000, which is above average at that stage.

[burgi]

4500 at the break! No cards this last hour! Got reraised a couple times when trying to steal, etc.

Oh well, made the money and now, I'll be in push or fold mode for a while, I guess. Maybe I'll get lucky!

[Crispy]

Hey burgi i think im the only one left with you. I have about the same stack in chips 10k. Should I be all in or fold mode right now? Blinds 750/1500

[burgi]

Yeah, I'm now in all in or fold mode (edit: not anymore)

but listen to this:
first hand after the break I get JJ. Guy in front of me raises to 5000, which puts me allin. I call. He shows 99 and i double up to about 10K.

2 hands later: I hold KK and I'm in BB. Guy in front raises to 3000, 1 caller, I reraise allin, both fold. I'm now at about 18K

Next hand: Guy who raised before with 99 and who was the caller on the other hand raises allin (about 6K). I call with AK, he turns over JT and sucks out on me. Oh well.

Now, just a second ago, I pick up KK in SB. BB is big stack who is very aggressive. I raise to 3500, he raises me allin. I call. He flips over 99. We both hit our sets and I'm now at about 18000.

Crazy last couple minutes for me!!!

Hope you are doing just as well.

[UATrewqaz]

Crispy and Burgi same table now, table 4.

[burgi]

I'm out as 45th. Pretty good tournament for me!

Lost my chips with a flash draw which didn't hit!

[Crispy]

Out 34th. Came down to 5 people in with me sitting LP with J9 suited. Figured it did well multi and had to go for it. I had gotten up to 30k when burgi doubled up through me with his AQ against my KK. Ah well, good run thanks for the help guys.

[KyleM]

lol sorry i was kinda pissed and didn't proofread my post... lol

ok, 1st or 2nd round of 200k and I raise to 100 from UTG+1 w/KK. UTG+2 RERAISES to 200. everybody else folds.

Call (t100)?
Raise?
or Push?

also, no read on villain

thanks,
kyle
