Stars 45K Final Table

Hi, my first post on this forum.

Asked for a deal twice, but no one seemed intrested. The call with 72, aint my proudest moment, but it's not as bad as you say either. Here's my thoughts: The opponent had made many strange plays during the finaletable. Betting very strong on pot without hitting. Calling pushes with J9o, and lost a pot vs K high an so on.

When he makes a stop n go move here, it tell me that he don't have the A. This is a move I've seen a lot of times with draws, low pairs and as pure bluffs. So I put him on a draw, low pair, or maybe a mid pair. I think there is a reasonable chance that I'm in front, and that I got 5 outs + a backdoor flush draw if I'm behind.

Not a very good play, but I think the push is worse.

Is this retarded thinking?

You called the push didnt you? So clearly whatever moves he had made previously set you up for this one. Not to mention, he has a lot of his chips in the pot and is first to act on an A high flop, pushing here represents an A even though he only has the K's. I don't mind the push at all, in fact I make similar moves when shorthanded.

very horrible. you have a pair of 7s with a deuce kicker.

yea, but seriously, 4 million into a 400k pot? h also wasn't the pfr, he flat called with KK

if he loses this pot he is completely crippled

i dont think the risk:reward is good enough to justify pushing 10xpot

[Jurollo]

He played it poorly preflop by not reraising you and got scared when the A hit the flop, seems like a pretty straightforward reason for the play, your call is terrible though.

I don't like the push either, but the call is much worse.
~Justin

Ain't too much about what I got. It's more about what he got, and why he is making this move. He bets like he doesn't want a call, and didn't hit his hand, or is on a draw.

For future reference, dont post results for hands like this... you will get better analysis if you dont.

That's a really bad reason for the play. It's probably the reasoning he used, but it's horrible to push because the flop could have wrecked your hand.

Yes, the results was already out in a previous post. Tnx for your thougts. I don't like my call too much either, but don't think it's that terrible.

Guess it's those calls you make when you've been awake for 30+ hours and should've been asleep before the tourney started [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
