Title: KK under the gun.
Post by: brummieboy on January 02, 2007, 02:17:01 PM
Just played a MTT on party, I had 9900 chips and average was 6800.
150 left out of 600 odd.
I've just moved table and after three hands get  Kd Kh in first pos.
Blinds are 150/300, I raise to 900 a small stack goes in for 2200 and then after a few seconds the chipleader of the tournament goes all in for 27000.

I had the smallstack on a smaller pocket pair or a suited ace. And with he's action had the chip leader on maybe a pocketpair or AK and by going allin was trying to push me out of the pot and get heads up with the shortstack.
I call after a few seconds though and smallstack had  Tc Td but chipleader had  Ahrt Aspades.

Would anyone fold in this situation and wait for a better spot?
I've thought about it and still think it that situation i'd call.

I'd have been in top 10 if i'd have doubled up.

I think his range is wider than that, i might be playing suited connectors in his position for less than 10% of my stack.

Explain to me what better situation you want? A full double up with KK vs a range of AK/smaller pair, there are very few 'better situations'

to be fair, as a Villa fan he's prepared to wait a long time for the perect situation....then it arrived...via Wycombe, Norwich, Leicester, Celtic and gardening leave...

He got excited early on and then his heart broke near the end when he realised he was going to lose.

Yep, sounds like Villa to me. Early promise, finish with a whimper.

Lol, i'd call every time just wondered if anyone would admit to folding in that situation, then we could all mock them.

Fold. Chip leader probably has  Ahrt Aspades or very occasionally  Ad Aspades
