IPO day 2 misplayed hand - views welcome
WYoung83:
Deffo should of shoved pre flop....with antes out there you cannot possibly raise 2.5 x BB. Just does not work,
the Big blind was getting over 3-1 and even with an average hand, he may not fold. So the only way to win the pot is to shove, you eliminate any mistakes on later streets.
Some people may say it is dangerous shoving because he is only goning to call if he has a better hand. But although it may be true, you arnt looking for a call anyway and from the sounds of it (like in the APAT toruneys, close to the bubble) just not enough chips in play to get cute post flop, annoying i know, but shoving is the optimal play.
Honeybadg:
I am all in pre flop ... may well get called by ropey AJ/AT type hands ... if you run into AK,QQ,KK,AA ... just a cooler.
Once you are in the hand ... maybe bet 2/3 of the pot on the flop to induce a fold?? ... but there is almost no good play unless you hit.

JamieCarra:
Don"t agree with shoving pre, everybody is generally playing so tight this deep in tourneys that you can risk far less for the same effect.
Pre is standard but I would be cbetting the flop for ~29k(Difficult to say what to do if he check shoves as you"ve only just moved to the table).
As played I would then make a small raise on the turn, to say 80k.
Once you flat the turn you have definitely got to check back on the river. You have still got a load of showdown value but I think you"re getting called by most pairs at this point.
Marty719:
Just to clarify - I am never open-shoving 17x pre at this stage of this tournament. Have more thoughts on the hand as well but Il w8 a while for them!
deanp27:
preflop is fine, don"t open shove with 17xbb imo - 12 maybe the limit for me here.
this is a bad board to c-bet imo as pocket pairs and Kx peel so you don"t get rid of many worse hands and only get called by better. So that is fine.
you call turn as you feel like you have SD value then decide to turn your hand into a bluff, which is why i just check river.
