Weird tournament hands seem to be the norm at the $5 sit and gos on Poker Stars
I don't seem to have any way to explain this one other than the BB reading me for an outright steal with nothing and eventually believing me. Second level, 15/30 blinds, one stack eliminated, relevant stacks even (~1500). I'm in the SB with Q [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img]. Folded around to me, I make it 90 to go from the SB. BB calls. Flop comes 5 [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] 6 [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] 9 [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] . I overbet the pot (270) hoping to fold the flush and or straight draw. BB calls. Turn: 7 [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] , a little scary, - club and/or 8 beats me. I pull back a bit, and bet another 250, about 1/3 the pot. BB calls. River: K [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] . If he has a [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] , a 8, or a K i lose. I definitely chicken out and bet 200. He folds! What is going on? What could he have? |

Who knows, sometimes people play all kinds of hands crazily. Look at my recent post "gettin' jiggy in the BB with 92o" and you'll see what I mean. I think he had A7 with the ace of spades. At least that's what I think since I'm trying to make SOME sort of sense from his play. Who knows though, he could have had anything. Be glad you won the pot.

I would say definitely the A of spades. Other than that, I don't know. Maybe an offsuit J and he thought you were betting overcards until the river?

Who knows?
But in addition to the other replies, I would put TT and JJ in the mix of possibles, although I think A(s)T, AJ or even AQ, then A7, A6 are more likely. With the high-middle pair he probably plays back some on the flop if not the turn. |
