I am new to tournaments, have not read any tourney books and have only used infos and guidelines learned from CP magazine and casual lurking on this forum. Inspite of basically playing via the seat of my pants, I've been lucky enough to win 2, and 2 final tables at small 20-2 tourneys at Pokerroom out of 12 I've entered so far. Anyway got involved in this hand last night:
Blinds of 100/200 with about 46 players left out of 116. With T4720, raised 650, UTG with AdQd. Player to my immediate left who got me covered, called without any hesitation. Everyone folded. Heads up to a flop of Q T X rainbow. I bet 1500 and got called with no hesitation again. Turn was a rag and I pushed. Without any hesitation he called again. It is only then that I thought I was trapped. River was another brick. He turned over KK amd I was out.
Detailed response please for my education. Thanks.
