Just busted out of a $20 NL Hold Em Tourney over at Poker Stars. I had about an average sized stack, steadily increasing it by picking up some small pots and playing conservative. Everything was going well until the following hand.
http://www.pokerhand.org/newhand.php?hand=2461 I just want to know if I made the correct play or not. I wanted to get that idiot to the right of me out of the pot, but he had other plans. |

I have to admit I liked your outs. IT seemed wrong that the one that hit happened to be 2nd best but it happens. One thing is that if this were a cash game and you guys "lets just say" kept capping it *for the same effect as going all-in*. It would have been a good play because of your odds yet it was a tournament and I believe there is some sort of Cardnial rule that talks about not drawing out if possible. If you didnt go for it then you would have still been in with fine chips and then been able to continue with what you were doing *picking up the small pots and so on* and then maybe hit something really nice to double on. IMO this wasn't the best thing to do because I dont like draws unless they are nessisary in tournaments but I believe mathematically you were correct. But what is a mathematical call when if you miss your draw then your out of the tournament?

[/ QUOTE ] why would you the guy on your right out? you have no made hand but a draw to the nuts - grab up everybody you can and get them to call. it's a close decision, but i think you call this all-in. (calling and pushing are basically the same as the 3rd guy will be PC'd by calling). here are some hands the opponent is reasonably likely to have: Holdem Hi: 990 enumerated boards containing 5s 4c 2c cards win %win lose %lose tie %tie EV Ac Qc 360 36.36 528 53.33 102 10.30 0.415 As Ad 528 53.33 360 36.36 102 10.30 0.585 Holdem Hi: 990 enumerated boards containing 5s 4c 2c cards win %win lose %lose tie %tie EV Ac Qc 500 50.51 472 47.68 18 1.82 0.514 Kc Kd 472 47.68 500 50.51 18 1.82 0.486 Holdem Hi: 990 enumerated boards containing 5s 4c 2c cards win %win lose %lose tie %tie EV Ac Qc 578 58.38 403 40.71 9 0.91 0.588 7c 7d 403 40.71 578 58.38 9 0.91 0.412 Holdem Hi: 990 enumerated boards containing 5s 4c 2c cards win %win lose %lose tie %tie EV Ac Qc 439 44.34 438 44.24 113 11.41 0.501 As Ks 438 44.24 439 44.34 113 11.41 0.499 Holdem Hi: 990 enumerated boards containing 5s 4c 2c cards win %win lose %lose tie %tie EV Ac Qc 306 30.91 666 67.27 18 1.82 0.318 5c 5d 666 67.27 306 30.91 18 1.82 0.682 although i think AKs and 55 are unlikely. there's a lot of dead money in the pot, and you're not in terrible shape against anything, only behind AA, a set, or a made straight. put the chips in. and you shouldn't have busted out this hand - you had them covered. |

Yeah, I didn't bust out right then. I had like 700 or so chips left and busted out a short time after.
I'm convinced I made the right move pushing my money in with so many outs. I had 9 outs for the nuts, 3 more for an Ace (2 actually, but I didn't know Retard had one til now), 3 more for a Queen and 4 more to hit my straight. The hand looked beautiful and I took a shot and missed. I also do agree that the Idiot to my right was making the wrong move by calling, but it isn't as bad as I was thinking. Him calling gives me better odds, in the sense that I have a good drawing hand and if I hit I can take his and the other players money. Unfortunately he got lucky and not I. |

if the one who raised preflop is an idiot as you suggest, you should have wanted him heads-up. to do this, you need to make a significant re-raise preflop. either you win it right there, or you get him where you want him.
cheers! |

No, the person who won the pot and outlucked us all is the idiot.

You have 28 BB's at the start of the hand, there is no way I'm calling all my chips when I know I'm behind. You want to be the guy getting it all in with the best of it and have someone call you on a flush draw when you're the 2 to 1 favorite. It was a good flop for you, and if you can see a cheap turn by all means go for it, but you can't call an all-in here.

Here's the exact probabilities for the hand:
pokenum -h ac qc - as 6h - 7h 7d -- 2c 4c 5s Holdem Hi: 903 enumerated boards containing 5s 4c 2c cards win %win lose %lose tie %tie EV Ac Qc 460 50.94 443 49.06 0 0.00 0.509 As 6h 98 10.85 805 89.15 0 0.00 0.109 7d 7h 345 38.21 558 61.79 0 0.00 0.382 So you were way ahead. Anyway, more importantly: You have 9 + 4 + 3 + 3 = 19 outs against one pair lower than Kings You have 9 + 4 + 3 = 16 outs against Kings or Queens You have 9 + 4 = 13 outs against Aces or Two pair or a set You have 9 outs against a made straight Given that you have a shot at raking in a huge pot, I like these odds, and I make your play every single time without hesitation. Remember there's a reason that Chris Moneymaker and Sam Farha can be the final two at the WSOP one year and bust out on day one the next year. Don't sweat it, cards happen. |
