although i hate to get the bulk of my chips in pre flop you have the 2nd best starting hand so u push call and then hope he aint got AA and if he hasnt hope you hold up! Title: Re: Final table strategy..25k mtt Post by: Royal Flush on July 11, 2006, 02:01:07 PM Insta call.

Title: Re: Final table strategy..25k mtt Post by: ACE2M on July 11, 2006, 03:00:18 PM I don't see a decision really, all in and hope hasn't got AA and doesn't outdraw you if he hasn't.

Title: Re: Final table strategy..25k mtt Post by: bhoywonder on July 12, 2006, 12:29:45 PM ok so he turns over Ad Qh
u know the rest.......50p i reckon i was a 5 to 2 favourite preflop..not to be..and i crashed out in 10th place (didnt survive the ensuing blinds) hindsight is a great thing,but I was just checking with you guys if i should have got involved with any hand at all at this stage and could have even sat out ( lol )....but the concensus is i done the right thing....heck ..if i aint playing this im as good as folding AA preflop..and going to bed hoping i wake up a rich man cheers for the comments Title: Re: Final table strategy..25k mtt Post by: GlasgowBandit on July 15, 2006, 08:42:33 PM I'm not good enough to be folding KK at any stage of a tourney pre-flop.
If the guy has Aces then fair play. 80/20 against any random hand. The only thing worse is if you hold up to the River it seems like a piss take when that A hits! |
