Obviously the correct answer is to river a Q. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I played almost this exact hand the other night. I had AK on KKJ flop. Got all-in against KJ and luckboxed the A on the river.

Like everyone else said, I go broke here.

Default Re: Does anyone not lose their stack here?

So last night I am in the BB in the rebuy section of an MTT. I have 46 and get a free pass. Flop is 4K6, like 4 of us but it is soon to be HU. I bet he mini raises (two tone flop, btw). Some card comes I bet (since he may be drawing) he mini raises again. Sonofabitch! I call. River come some card, I check and he makes some none all in bet (I started the hand with a nice stack, so I am not needing to double up before the rebuy is over). I type "Man I spewed some chips this hand" as I called. MHIG. (He had KQ or such).

Of course you go broke. Did he have AT or TT?

It is possible to get away from this with a read. Against an unknown, on party poker especially, you lose your stack.

Basic answer: In a low level tournament, no, you lose your stack.

In a $100-200 with good reads: You bet and got two calls. Be generous and give one a flush draw or a T; the other surely has an ace. The question is what kind of ace (a tight regular, for example, does not have AJ) and you should be checking behind on this turn a fair amount.

On the river, yeah, you're going broke.

Yah going broke here is pretty standard. I posted a hand like several weeks ago when I put somebody on 77 and check-called the river for half my stack but that was only cus I had 1500 to start. On party I think you must go broke here.

Too often ppl will have weaker A's imo.
