Post by: Bodddders on July 04, 2008, 09:51:33 AM
After some feedback on this hand from last nights game.

Blinds are 300/600 and im in BB. UTG (Monkeyman, idrivetractors) shoves for 6,500, he"s done this more than once. I have Pocket 10"s and have just short of 10,000 in chips. All folded round to me. (what do you do?)

My thoughts went something like this. I ruled out Pock. Q"s K"s & A"s as I felt he would want action with these. So the possible hands I put him on were J"s or lower or AQ, AK. Obv. if he"s got J"s im in poor shape but felt it was a chance to almost double up and put me amongst the chip leaders. I called and he had AQ and hit the Ace to cripple my stack. (Comments please)

Think you can call or fold here depending on your expectations.  You are probably racing most of the time if you call, dominated a small % and dominating some of the time. If you are happy to take a risk at this stage then the calls ok IMO.

LOL Thanks for the vote of confidence Scouse, managed 5th. Made a schoolboy error in the final phase to effectively rule me out. Not that I had much hope of taking it down with a stack of 30k and the chip leader with 180k. Enjoyable game all the same. Well played to all who made the FT. See you at the next one. :)

Thanks Johns. I was happy to race at the time, but was wonderering what most other Apater"s would do.

Hiya guys, FULL-POSTING HERE NOW....
  Delighted to complete one of my goals for 2008 by winning an APAT medal.....even more delighted that it was gold !  Having said that, the blokes at work found it funny when I told them I was now "Latvian Champion 2008 ".
  Won the heads-up with  ah  :as:
against ZZZZZZZROPE after he had got lucky on a 3-outer earlier to hit his ace on the river.
  Completed a great night 2 hours later by taking down Laddies $25 tourney for $1080....first time I have ever got TWO first"s in one night.
  Here"s to the Hat-Trick at Walsall tomorrow afternoon.
      BOING BOING !!
