Default Re: Further analysis requested.

Sorry Pot Luck but to blame this on the Chip Leader is wrong, your the one that made the error.

First he is much better than 6/1 to improve.

First off you don't know what UTG pushed with, it could be a higher pair.

Second, the Chip Leaders call screams two overcards which you should know right then and there by entering the pot you are at best entering into a coin flip situation if the UTG is playing overcards or a lesser pair. You could be entering the pot already behind UTG and in a coin flip with the chip leader.

With his stack did you seriously think he wouldn't call? Especially you yourself said that he was loose with calling all-ins.

Instead of blaming the chip leader (who made the right decision results based or not) you need to look at your move. You misread the chip leader and didn't give him credit for a quality overcard hand that would at best put you at a coin flip at worst I put him on A10 which might as well be AK as far as you are concerned. Further more you have to look at where you are at in terms of the money. Does folding here kill your chances of making the money? No.

You should have folded and picked a better spot were you had a stronger advantage. Diving into a 3 way pot with 99 is not an ideal situation in my opinion.
