WPT Qualifier Advice

[pocketjacks]

Thank you, it makes perfect sense and I knew that sort of raise was committing myself all the way, that is why I thought the chip leader would not get involved.

What happened was we both called and the middle position had Ace Jack off suit, but not a heart and the chip leader on the button had pocket 7's with no heart. No ace, jack, king came on the turn and river and he knocked us both out.
I really thought with his chip stack he would want to be more conservative since you only have to make it to the final 10 to qualify. I thought he would only call with the same hand or maybe a high PP.

I guess I misread him and I was out.

Thanks again for the advice, and I do have TPFAP so I will look up that section.
