*** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Who's in? I've already sucked out on GigaBet at table 69. (AJs v AQo)

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

I'm in.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

I'm in and it's looking to be expensive for me.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Looks to be cheap and boring for me. People need AQs+ JJ+ to go all in. No gambool.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Possibly a minimum price for me... passed up about ~15k chips here though.

Bad laydown? I've got enough chips for post-rebuy, but I could've gotten a ton here. (i.e. chipleader) I limped just to see if I could catch an Ace or TPTK or nut flush draw on the flop, KidKGB hadn't pushed much in the last 15 minutes or so.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Guys, what are your thoughts on this hand? It was the last hand before the break and UTG is riverdave who (I think) is fairly well known and good. He's been playing tight since he got over 10k. As you can tell, I folded. Would it have been worth it to risk my 10k stack? I was fairly certain that I'd get calls from the 2 players to act after me, so the pot would have been something like 30k. So here are my options...

1. risk having 5k at the break for the chance of having 30k at the break.
2. take a sure 12k at the break.

Edit: I should say, incase I haven't made it obvious, that I'm pretty sure I'm behind to riverdave or at the very best, a coinflip.

Don't pair the board! Don't pair the board! Don't pair the board! (He had Jacks.)

19,421 at the break, a bit above the average. At a table with Exitonly4... very angry table. And moved during the break.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

21.5k at break. was up to 48k.

i have a serious bad habit of bluffing WAY too much in MTTs. not necessarily too much, but bluffing too hard at a pot once i decide to bluff at it. i didn't used to do this and i'm not quite sure what made me start. i do know i need to stop it though.

On the upside, I hope my entire table saw me stack someone with 46 on a board of 24QJK. I suppose it could be good since I still have enough chips left to do some damage.
