Last night's satellite: Misplayed hand on the bubble?

<< < (5/5)

WarBwastardo:
How large was the big stack?  How much would he have had left if he"d have called your 14k re-raise with his AK, for what he must have thought would be a coin-flip, and lost?

there is a hand link on other table, he had over double hero"s stack. It was the BB who called behind with the AK, not the original raiser

hi_am_chris:
Pretty sure he only had around 40 k, the other big stack who had been aggressive earlier had calmed down a bit as we approached the bubble, as a big stack he has to be opening such a wide range on the button because neither sb or bb are going to fight back without a hand. In this situation where the big stack was only around double most of the short stacks i think hes going to be folding enough. Why take the chance of becoming a short  stack himself when he can coast to a seat

I"m in the fold camp also. There is no excuse to get busted on [or close to] the bubble if you"re no the short stack.

Since we are now playing on Betfair, I would suggest searching out Ariston"s excellent articles on playing satellites.

[Edit: I"ve just had a quick look on Betfair and wasn"t able to find any articles, by anyone! I have a copy of said satellite article, but not sure I should re-produce it here, without Ariston"s permission. Anyone know how to get hold of him? Rich?]
