Default For enterainment purposes only (very little content)

And how come no one ever raises when I try something different and limp UTG with a big pair? Anyhow...

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) converter

BB (t1000)
Hero (t1000)
UTG+1 (t970)
UTG+2 (t1805)
MP1 (t955)
MP2 (t320)
MP3 (t960)
CO (t1030)
Button (t975)
SB (t985)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
Hero calls t15, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls t15, MP3 calls t15, CO calls t15, Button folds, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t87.50) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t60</font>, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t140</font>, SB folds, BB folds, Hero calls t80.

Turn: (t367.50) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets t150</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t300</font>, CO calls t150.

River: (t967.50) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t250</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t500, Hero raises all-in to 570</font>, CO folds.

Final Pot: t1717.50

I'm guessing he didn't have 88, so at least he made a good laydown on the last 70 chips. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Man, you high buyin grinders sure like to post worst hand ever candidates. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Instead, why not give us fishies even more great free advice!!! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Actually, nice post, I hope it was a mis mouseclick by your opponent but I don't see how it could be.

The only other alternative is Phil Hellmuth -- he finally pegged you for a cold read and saved himself 70 chips.

I'm not sure it's any better than just shoving all-in and hoping that JJ will call however [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

*Impressively, this is a reply to the mini bet with a set of aces post, I have no idea how it ended up in here.

Wow, I was quite confused with this post. The two of us are just posting up such a storm that 2+2 can't handle us -- I wonder if this ever happens with TSC, he an uber poster.

As far as your comment as it applies to the other thread:
Yeah, that very well could be my line in a $11 SNG with top set. Rather than min-bet I'm liable to go allin. I still like check/raising allin but perhaps that allows too many free cards for my opponent to hit his/her flush.

Yeah, I saw this coming. Still, you don't have 10k posts between your two carpals, do you?

Although to really be fair, TSC has like maybe 100 posts with actual content so this comparison is silly really. You win according to any important metric, [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img].
