Title: SHOULD I OF LOST LESS Post by: NEVES on March 30, 2008, 12:35:47 AM Hi there,
MTT 60 runners left from 300+ 36 paid, Blinds 400/800 Ante 75, 9 handed I am UTG stack 19,000 which is about average i have Ac Qd, I make it 2400 to go all pass to BB stack 112,000 he doubles my raise i call. Flop 4c Js Qh BB checks i bet 5,000 he sets me in i pass he shows Qc Qs, Leaves me with around 10,000 but should i of got away cheaper. Many thanks Neves.

Title: Re: SHOULD I OF LOST LESS Post by: Graham C on March 30, 2008, 12:39:24 AM I may be wrong and get critisised, but position is key. You don't really want a caller so I'd either make it big or just fold UTG here. As it happens, QQ was always calling/raising, but I think you got away ok considering.
now I await to be told I'm wrong Title: Re: SHOULD I OF LOST LESS Post by: NEVES on March 30, 2008, 12:43:14 AM Why are you calling preflop if you're going to fold once you hit? I folded as i felt i had been trapped, but i do think now that passing preflop was the move. thx. ps enjoy ur updates mate.

Title: Re: SHOULD I OF LOST LESS Post by: Longy on March 30, 2008, 12:37:07 PM Pass or shove pre. As has been pointed out you hit the flop pretty hard and then bet/fold, the mistake is preflop.
Title: Re: SHOULD I OF LOST LESS Post by: MANTIS01 on March 31, 2008, 04:14:35 PM Yep, folding pre-flop is the best advice here. Although you have the bare minimum of a hand for raising UTG your position gives your raise more credibility, and your hand appears stronger than it is. Despite this the bb still juices the pot knowing he is facing a genuine hand and will be oop throughout. Does your oppo think his min raise will get a genuine UTG raising hand to fold? No. So fold.
