Re: Simple TT Hand
I thought it was a bit interesting in the sense it really comes down to AQo/99 making this move at all. To make the action clear, sorry for the confusion:
I raised to 350, he made it 1100 and I pushed in. He flipped over jacks.
The thing is I might get frisky with AQ or 99 in his shoes.
I had been playing solid but I was just getting into that 20x zone where I really start to open up.
And when I say I was playing solid, I was playing well, not weak tight but not as aggressive as I wanted.
The problem was the table was pretty good, not a lot of weak spots.
That also moved me towards a call.
Edit to say its funny how often tens are the hand that leaves you either scratching your head in love with poker.
I went out of the Crypto $560 losing a flip to tens with AQS, I donked out of the Million GTD with tens flopping an overpair, and I watched a friend lose with a set of tens to A9 on a t-9-2 board.
I figured I could throw that in cause its not my bad beat.
I agree to some extent with what Sam T says about tens being closer to nines, but I also think it just points out the nature of multis where your life hangs on these moments.
Oh well, I don't want to become one of those people El Diablo say needs a blog.

Against AQo, tens up its 40.3-59.7 add in nines its 44-56.
