Re: Early hand in the Party 500k

fold preflop, no question. the blinds are so insignificant this early, and you have several players yet to act behind you. there is absolutely no reason to risk chips this early with a hand easily dominated.
had this not been raised, i would limp in with AJs, but had i been UTG or UTG+1, it is a muck for me.
as for how you played it, it looks obvious to me that the button has a set. shut down after getting a bet and significant raise cold called on this board, especially when the scare card comes on the turn. maybe he'll make it cheap enough for you to draw to the flush if you check it to him.

fold preflop? are you outta yer damn mind? how do you ever think yer gonna win a tournament without getting a decent stack early sometimes? that is ridiculous advice. its not obvious at all to me that button has a set. its obvious he doesnt want a call on the turn. thats whats obvious. i get it in damn near every time here and live with my 8 to 14 outer if i was even behind to begin with. also, i hate the turn bet. check call or check shove. holla
