I like how you played it. There are so many things that can go wrong if you raise with the action in front of you that I hate building a big pot. If Joe picks a spot where 3 people have...

Why not raise PF a bit and try to get HU with the weak-loose player? If he re-pops it, you can get away from a likely AA-QQ. If not, you're playing deep stack poker, with position, against...

Re: TR From the Bellagio $5K NLH
Yeah, the 1 seat was awful. He was the one to give the grinder a ton of chips when he some how got all of his chips, and he had a lot them, all in on a flop of 962 with A8 vs the grinder's set of...

Re: TR From the Bellagio $5K NLH
Nice report. I was at your table when you busted, the younger guy in the 6 seat. It hurt watching those beats, though after what had gone on at that table we all expected that J on the river. Good...

Re: LV sweat request - colson on tear
Thanks everyone. The final hand was as brutal as they come, but I was fortunate to get that far anyways. MTT poker sucks but of course I love it.
I almost didn't even play this tournament...

Re: Stars 500 hand
I agree, MLG. nice little rhyme there that should be used often.
Sounds like JV's been pounding him pretty hard, seems like a nice spot to take the pedal off the gas, too.

I don't think the call with 55 is that bad. It's not even 10% of your stack and if you call and flop a set, you'll increase your stack by nearly 50%. Did you put Gazes on T7 that hand...

Re: hand from stars 500
btw, I really hate leading this turn unless you're planning on pushing when he raises, which isn't a horrible line. Players like this just don't check behind on the flop and give up to a half pot...

Re: hand from stars 500
I read it as a bluff. Either that or he flopped trips/fullhouse/quads. Checking behind the flop and raising the turn is not consistent with an overpair.
I really doubt he checks behind the...

I do actually like the 55 call, and I wonder if there are any circumstances in which you would put more $$ in without a set, ie with a tell, or some wierd bet by him.

Re: Yuck
I'd like to see the 150-300 level added to NL tournaments. The 1600 level is a great addition but the jump from 100-200 to 200-400 is still too much.
