$11 Party SNG - Blinds at 50/100
I doubled up on the first hand with pocket queens and at this point there are 6 people left and I am 2nd in chips (~1500 vs 1400). I'm in the BB. Chip leader makes it 325 from middle position. All folds to me. I'm looking at A-10 offsuit. What do I do?
Here was my thought process...
- I don't like getting involved with the only person that can knock me out.
- I'm closing the action, so maybe take a look at the flop for 225 more and make a decision there.
- Fold and wait for a better spot to get involved?
- I gave a reraise a brief thought, but I put him on a good hand, so I ruled that out.
I'll give you the results, but I'm interested in the pre-flop action.
- I call for 225 more
- Flop come JQK rainbow. I flopped the nuts.
- I check. He bets 450. I call.
- Turn is blank (4). I check, he's all in, I call.
- He turns up pocket kings.
- River pairs the board with a J and he hits his full house and I'm out in 6th place.
Thanks for the comments.
