Default Re: RESULTS

If I bet 1500 and he puts me all-in, the pot will be 7950 and it will cost me 2325 to call, or almost 3.5:1. I can't fold for those odds. Not when he could read me for AK and bet with JJ.

My thoughts in retrospect were that this was a weak-tight fold (though in the immortal words of Tommy Angelo - "better to be weak-tight than strong-broke.")

Thus the decision was whether or not this was the best time to commit all my chips. In the middle stages of a MTT I probably either push or checkraise all-in (he'll bet a lot of hands he'll fold to a push).

I also think that if I have 25% fewer chips it's an easy push. As it is, I decided I didn't have to risk it all here even though I might be folding a winner. I'll accept criticism for that approach, but that was my logic.
