Re: Wasting Aces...
You didn't waste your Aces.
You took down a pot of t140, 7xBB, to increase your stack 13%.

Re: Better learning experience???
OK, I'm a little lost.
You want to play the $1,500 WSOP circuit event to bust your cherry before playing "an event or two" in the Borgata Winter Open event?
And you're asking if you'd be...

Re: what would you do in this situation?
What did UTG do?
Assuming he folded I'd probably flat call t1,600 into the t3,800 pot, making the pot t5,800. Small enough to get away from if the flop is in-opportune and he pushes.

Re: Your Saw Flop%

Re: Sat bubble play. autocall with AK ?

Re: Early in a MTT. how do i play this

Re: Bottom Set facing Lots of Resistance
MP1 has almost all of his stack in the pot. I wouldn't be surprised to see KQ a good part of the time, but even if you could pin him exclusively on JT you're getting amble odds to call. Easy hand.
