I think this really depends on what your read is. Sorry to hear you didn't have one. /images/graemlins/wink.gif
The one thing I notice too is that you're really pot committing yourself with that...

Re: pocket jacks.....would you fold ??
Easy fold to all that action early in a tournament in my mind. Too bad you would have won it, but you don't want to be risking all of your chips as a small favorite (or potential dog).

Re: one and done
I would have done the same thing. It's unfortunate, but you can't put him on Q9 or AQ well enough to muck this hand.
I think you played it fine. Just don't let the results cloud your thoughts...

Re: Maniacs are fun
I'm scratching my head wondering why you capped the flop. I know these folks are maniacs, but you have top-pair bad-kicker and a non-nut flush draw. I wouldn't have even called.
Don't even get me...

Re: Is this worth a call-down?
First off, I'd muck this in a second behind a raise preflop, especially from your position.
The flop was pretty standard, so not much to say there.
I do like how Nick put it though. If you're...

Re: Hand Comments? Flopped Straight....
Preflop, muck that in an instant. I dunno what you're doing playing that in UTG+1
You have a great hand on the flop, so bet what you THINK he's going to call. I'm not so sure I'd blindly pot it...

Re: Too much chasing?
This is an easy muck on the flop. Even though he's only putting 50 cents into the pot on each round, you don't have the necessary pot odds to draw for your 2 outer. Now if you wanted to play back at...

Re: Did I play this hand well?
I like the play. I can see an argument for going all-in on the flop, but as posters have mentioned before, you're only going to scare him off if he's a good player. Certainly all-in is correct here...

Re: Call All-in with Straight Flush Draw?
So you're going to risk your whole stack on a draw to the non-nuts? There's only 4 cards here that are going to give you the nuts, and as I mentioned, 3 of them are susceptible to a redraw. You're...

Re: Call All-in with Straight Flush Draw?
I wouldn't have even played 97s on the button, or especially called a raise with it. On the flop, at best you have about 13 outs, in which case only 4 of them are the nuts. 3 of those 4 outs are very...

Re: NL 1/2 Stars Critique My Play Please.
If you know the guy is willing to call a re-raise preflop, then go ahead and bump that up a bit. On the flop, I wouldn't have messed around. You have kings, so pot it. $12 is weak with a pot that's...

Re: pocket tens, what to do?
I'd be more than a bit wary of the preflop call by two players, especially from the guy that has the majority of his chips now in the middle. I don't know why he didn't just move in on you with those...

Yeah, I don't like his AA limp here. I really think that he probably was just trying to be sneaky, but didn't give any consideration into the type of table he was at.
With very loose tables as you...

Re: KK heads up against possible straight.
I think you played preflop just great. Any decent player would most likely muck that QJo on the spot after that reraise. Usually it'd be his funeral against your cowboys.
Now with about 1400 or so...

Re: Could this disadvantage be overcome?
That's terrible. Was there a way for you to call a floor person or some support during the tournament? I don't see how they're expected to provide a fair tournament with this sort of thing.

Re: Humble pie
Sounds to me like a pretty straightforward hand. Flopping trips (not a set) with a bad kicker is NOT a hand that's worthy of slowplaying as you did. I don't see anything fancy or "pro" about his play...

Re: how\'d I do?

I'd have probably capped the...
