Default I sat in the Big Game...

I have been playing poker for over 20 years and decided to see what this Big Game was really all about. So I bought in for $160k and took my shot.

1st Hand (4k/8k Hold Em):
Johnny Chan raises from MP
Barry G re-raises from the Hijack
Chip Reese cold calls 3 from the button
I am in the BB and look down to find T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

what is my play?

The correct play would be to fold. If you are Gus Hansen you reraise!

Default Rest of Hand

I decide to defend.. all call..

4 players see A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Chan bets, Greenstein folds, Reese calls, I check-raise my back-door straight draw...

Chan goes into the tank... I call for the clock. Phil Ivey tells me that is bush-league... I call for Bobby Baldwin to have Ivey removed.

Chan does call and Reese mucks. Turn is a 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and I check-raise Chan again. Chan quickly calls.

River is the K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and I check-raise Chan a 3rd time and he mucks for 1 more...

Next game is triple draw and I look down at my hand and then ask the dealer to go over the rules...
