My first post, some critique of my play please
Okay, here goes. I'm new to online poker and I am playing at Pacific, in a 20-person sit-and-go tourny. I don't have the exact info here, but I'll replicate as best as I can. I'm playing very loose preflop, as is most of the table. The relevant info has BB with ~500, haven't seen them play much, they've only been in a few flops and it is now down to seven people at the first table. I limp with 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] from UTG+1 with ~1100. UTG+2 calls, button calls, SB folds and BB checks. so 450 in the pot.
flop 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img],7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img],10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] BB checks, I bet 100, UTG+2 folds, button folds and BB checkraises 500 (all in) what do I do, results to come, plus a surprise |

Hi Monty, welcome to the forums.
First off this should go in Single Table Tournament forums. Second, 8To sucks UTG+1. Lastly, call because the board is so draw heavy and he is short. (this is just my spur of the moment thought). |

What are the blinds? In the little Ive played at Pacific, the players have been pretty terrible. Still, you dont beat a whole lot here, and even if he's semi-bluffing with the naked A of clubs its a close race, and against a pair and a club youre a dog, and it gets worse from there so Id probably fold.

I don't think it can be emphasized enough how bad it is to limp for 10% of your stack from UTG+1 with 8To.
Play like this will ensure you going broke. |

Re: My first post, some critique of my play please
okay, here is the surprise ending i promised. i was actually the BB, not the UTG+1
I had played 2 pots total, up to that point in the tourny, when i wasn't the BB and got into an unraised pot. I was just getting nothing to play all night, and had decided that enough was enough, I was getting blinded away. That 100 bet seemed ridiculous to me. I put the guy on some like what he had, a pair with maybe one club. I reraised all in because I needed the money or I needed to stop playing for the night. I had 10 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] , 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I couldn't believe he called, anyways, two rags on the turn and river and I could call it a night. I realize that I need to be patient, but I new he had crap, and frankly if he calls and I lose, I can stop playing. I would have thought that I had been projecting a super-tight image, but I don't think anyone was even watching. |

Don't try to move a bad player off a hand unless you like screaming at deaf people.
