What was your stack size?

I'm probably raising preflop here.

Looks fine to me if things are short at this point.

Re: Misplayed Tourney Hand?
 

Sorry the hand converter went nuts.

I had 32,000 and was in second place. I should note that this was a WCOOP qualifier and that the final seven qualified. When he raised my turn bet I felt like he might have kings but something like 89TK or similar made more sense with the flop call.

Re: Misplayed Tourney Hand?
 

How many people were left? I'm assuming this is the final table? If so and 2 or more people are short then I'm just folding my way to the W$, maybe picking up the blinds here and there and playing pots in position with very strong hands.

edit: also just a brag I've won three of these now [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Misplayed Tourney Hand?
 

Nine. I know it's a hugely donk play to get involved in a big pot when you can coast to the end in this type of tourney, but I am trying to hone
my tourney game and wanted to play it out to the end.

Nine.

Fold preflop. In a regular tourney if you were playing for first it looks pretty standard IMO.

Re: Misplayed Tourney Hand?
 

Also brag: This was my second seat I've won of the two tourneys I entered. They are ridiculously easy.

Re: Misplayed Tourney Hand?
 

IF you're going to play that hand preflop (which didn't seem to be a very good idea, given the texture of the table and tourney stage), there's really nothing you can do about that. Just an unfortunate turn. Better luck next time!

Felonius Monk welcome to the forum. I've read a few of your articles and they have been very informative and (unusual for poker) well written and understandable. I hope we can expect to see many more posts from you in the future.

Re: Misplayed Tourney Hand?
 

Thankyou very much. I look forward to posting here, though I don't always have as much time as I'd like to browse the forums, seems like there's some really good discussion (and world-class omaha players) over here at 2+2.
