Hi all!!
First! Im sorry for my bad english, its my second language...
Ok, im playing pot limit one table tournament at party poker and i will tell you how im playing the preflop until today... I always slow play my big hand early in the tournament, like KK, QQ, JJ, AKs, instead of AA because i think theres always too many callers and im busted by a draw or two pair.. I usually had good result, finishing 50% of the time in the money...
This nigth i tried to change my strategy and play aggressivly AA, KK ,QQ, JJ, AKs. Im playing on 10+1 single table and theres what happened :
Blind 10/15, i raised the pot to 90 ( max i can ) with AKs and one player reraise to about 300, so i push in and he had QQ, im beaten.... same thing for the second tournament!
The third tournament i had 1150 in chips, blind is 50/100 and i raised the max i can with KK and the player at my left reraised me to 600, i push in again, he beat me with J-10o ( full house ) flop was J-J-10...
im woundering if i played these hand correctly, if i would be advantaged on the long run.... i lost three tournament with these big hands, i tought if i had played this hand more conservatively as i usually do i would survive long enough to go in the money... tell me if im wrong, i need some advice.. how are you playing preflop /images/graemlins/confused.gif
