Re: Deep in a field of 1200
 

Out in the 2nd round. Had him down 4800-1200 within about 5 minutes, then I kept having to fold to a raise on the river.

Anyway, good luck all!

Playing Sets Fast
 

This might parallel a bit with the post that strassa made a bit ago titled "I bet" He mentioned that in tournaments instead of check raising so often, its important to get paid off the most against a hand that can pay you off. If this huge checkraise gets QQ-AA to pay him off, then I like the play a whole lot, especially since you're only getting more money out of AK a small percentage of the time. I like even betting out with a made low set to what I perceive to be an overpair, because the guy has to raise basically, and no one expects the set to be played that fast.
