PL Tourney. 86 entrants. T1000 starting chips.
Early stages. Blinds 15-30. 10 handed.
You T920 SB: Ah,Kh
UTG T1020: limps
LP: limps
Button: limps
Pot: T135
1) What's your play and why?
I raised the pot. A mistake I believe.
UTG called. Heads up. Pot 405.
Flop: Ks,Jc,6d
2) What's your bet and why?
I bet 250. Correct I believe.
UTG: Raised to 500. I moved in. 3) Your play?
UTG had K,J one of the hands I gave him. I lost th hnad and was out of the tournament.
I made a mistake on this hand. Some of you may think I made more. You might be right. Some of you may not agree with me tht i made a mistake. You might be right.
My raise of the pot bfore the flop was a mistake at his stage of th game. I had not much to gain and everything to lose. There is a very importnt concept that I id not take into account here. That is that it is to the beter player advantage to keep the pot small. Before I go any further I would like to read some responses.
