Simple TT Hand

[La Brujita]

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.
