2nd Hand Of NL Tourney, Kings w/ 10 Kicker
I am currently playing a Poker Stars freeroll. One of the players I knocked out (the hand after this) was one that I knew from cash games. They play reckless and will call top pair with any kicker. I got involved with this player on the second hand of the tournament.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) pokerhand.org hand converter CO (t1500) Button (t1490) SB (t1610) BB (t1500) Hero (t1500) UTG+1 (t1500) MP1 (t1500) MP2 (t1400) MP3 (t1500) Preflop: Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero calls t20, <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>, SB completes, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>. Flop: (t60) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">SB bets t100</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1000</font>, SB calls t900. Turn: (t2060) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">SB bets t590 (All-In)</font>, Hero calls t480 (All-In). River: (t3130) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font> Final Pot: t3130 Well, yeah, it was kind of stupid, but I milked it for all possible. I had a read on this person from cash games and thought that he might have a pair of kings with no kicker, or possibly middle pair. |

Yeah. I figured he'd have a much lower kicker, but I still ended up winning.
What, are you playing at my table or something? |

KQ/K8/K6/K4 all beat you. Still a good guess though, I'd say.
You had a read on him that he was a cash game player? I hope you also had a read that he didn't know how to adjust his game to tourney play - otherwise, assuming that he's treating a tournament like a cash game is quite dangerous. |

The raise to 1000, seems really really donkish. But it worked. 99% of the time, it doesn't work.

Yeah, I did. Besides, the fact that this is a freeroll makes people move in with any hand. I had QJs and lost a four-way all-in pot to two dry aces and a 9-3 offsuit. Luckily, I was the big stack so I wasn't knocked out.

No, the low buy-ins you see a lot of stuff like this. There was a very similar hand I posted a couple weeks back:
