Should i have got away from this
gerry5421:
My first run in the Genting and biggest tourney i have played made day 2 with 53K and ran it up to 80k in first hour , dont want this to sound like a bad beat story, but want to learn from this so wondering if there is anyway i could have got away from it , obv a huge overbet by me after flop , but thinking behind it was that i had a chance of a double up to give me double average stack.
I had Kd Kc on button , blinds 2000/1000 folded to me i raise to 80000 Sb folds , BB calls - flop 7s 5h 8s , he checks I shove 70K he is massive stack just came to table , thinking AK, AQ and he has missed flop he instant calls with 9d 6h , nut straight and i am out.
No info on his type of play as just seated at table he must have had about 200k .
So inexperience on my part? i can see a huge overbet by me possible not the right play by me , but to be fair turn cam dud no A on river either so think my chip smayhave been in either way.
opinions guys please

You know I am possibly not the best person to comment but I reckon you just got coolered he took a punt with a huge stack and got lucky. No regrets big man just dust yourself down and head first again.

Rather than shoving I"d prefer a 20k cbet - give him the opportunity to check raise light. If called I jam turn unless I have a very good reason not to - there aren"t many of these good reasons.
Either way, I"m getting it in at some point most likely. He"s terrible, and you"re unlucky.

Wow!
Firstly why raise so big preflop? 5k is plenty.
He makes a fairly loose peel, though has good implied odds (as his hand can flop big) and is unlikely to get in trouble post flop as he can easily throw one pair hands away.
What are you trying to achieve by your shove?
What hands do you think you will get a call from that you beat?
What do you put in his range?
IMO you have totally overplayed your hand.
If you had raised to 5k you could have bet half pot (another 5.5k) and found out he had something. You can then proceed with caution depending on turn and river cards.
No need to go broke in this hand.

Lucas inexperience on my part probely a big part to be honest but some of my thinking rightly or wrongly.

4 x BB , unsure why to be honest half of me wanted him in the pot as he had a big enough stack to pay me off , but then i suppose i can see if he is calling it he may have a hand that beats me already , but if he shoves pre- then AA id likley and i can fold , hard as it may be.

never thought of his hand in that way
What are you trying to achieve by your shove?
His check was making me think AK or AQ and he had missed and proberlly trying to take pot there rather than flip for an A
What hands do you think you will get a call from that you beat?
huge overbet , and i can see that now , didnt think it through at the time , again inexperience
Thnaks for the feedback guys has certainly made me think this hand in a different light.
had a great couple of days poker and at the end of the day i was freerolling for a fiver so the actual experience was invaluable alone.
Keep it coming
