Default embarrassed \'bout this... lemme have it.

i played very well the whole tourney, a stars $20... i really dropped the ball here- i thought it was a steal... mr. big stack had made some bad folds before, but not this time... tell me why:


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t3000 (3 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

SB (t155138)
Hero (t75668)
Button (t39194)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t39044</font>, SB calls t37544, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t75518</font>, SB calls t36474.

Flop: (t188730) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

Turn: (t188730) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

River: (t188730) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

oh well...

to the bar!

why not just fold? Either you are guarenteed second or everyone becomes a middle stack. Neither option is all that bad for you.

Or you can just call and try to hit something. Big stack isn't going to bet out without hitting a big piece of it anyway.

On the plus side... you get to head to the bar a little earlier than otherwise! Hope it worked out for you.

This is bad, but not as bad as you think it is. As long as button doesn't win the hand and you get 3rd place, you win 2nd place prize money.

It's still bad though. SB's smooth call probably means he has KQ beat, and if button doubles, that's not the end of the world. You're in a 3 way race for first with 25 big blinds.
