Re: Final Tbl Problem

I played this hand at level-2, wanting Op to think I was very strong with a small turn bet since (probably) I was pot-committing myself to call a push, this in addition to the obvious no difference...

Re: Pick My Major and 2nd Semester Classes for Me!!! (OT)

Sorry, I'm too old to have any advice based upon what schools are teaching today. When I was in College in the 60s, we majored in rebellion, sex, and drugs.

Re: Push Flop with OESD and middle pair?

I have to say your actions did not occur to me.

After such a wonderful Flop for the Blinds in a 4-way Pot, I cannot fathom the initial Check. This is the type of Flop that hits a Blind very hard...

Re: RESULTS

Seems like an easy Fold with 5 players yet to act behind because if someone re-raises, a Call has essentially discarded 15% of your stack. The table apparently respects UTG+1 and your hand+position...

I had a nasty hand tonight that is still bothering me enough six hours later to post my play and invite another shower of flaming mockery in exchange for the wisdom of the good players.

I recall that Josh Arieh showed up in the Forum last fall to "explain" his WSOP-04 behavior and promised that we would be seeing some theoretical posts from him by now.

Thanks for replying, David. I have much respect for you and have learned a lot from your posts.

Do You Fold This Boat?

A real hand from a $6 MTT with 325 starters.
Down to 90 or so, Blinds are 100/200.

Oops, forgot AJ.

PUSH IN, with great authority and grandeur. (Hey! You could still win the tournament! Told you I'm an optimist...)

Re: What are you doing with small-middle pockets late?

As you set this up, you have another 2-3 hands before your next BB and more than enough after to be a mild threat to the middle stacks for another full orbit.

What is so desperate about this...

Re: Any way to not be crippled in this hand?

I'd put all my chips in PF after Op's aggressive re-raise.
Why invite this sort of disaster? AA is not invincible.

Re: Is this an obviously bad call?

Ending one's tournament by calling an ALLin w/ AK is probably the most frequent story I read in poker forums.

I would have shut down after the Flop and checked down the hand.
