Title: Tourny Play - 2 From bubble Post by: Jaydeaa on April 06, 2008, 12:05:14 AM Hi Guys,
Played on Thursday night, bubble burst at 11th and currently down to 13, sitting mid stack on the button and get dealt, Qd Qh Raised pre flop UTG, by someone i play with alot, he was short, had to double up was all in (but 500 with blinds at 1000/2000 and obviously had rags) on the blind next hand so i know he is very loose with this, then the player to my immediate right calls, I re raise to 4,500 and folded round there other caller calls (he is super tight, only seen him play 4 pots, all night and has won at showdown with massive pockets, A's, K's or A.K thats it so im now a bit scared! Play cash with him and is super tight, with play mid to high pockets to see if he hits a set or plays the big ones and hopes for even more improvement! I have been playing very loose all night andf even on button, if stealing and bb re raises, im calling just to show strength and i cant be pushed about, VERY unusual for me! Flop Jd Tc Ahrt (at this point, I put him on Kings or a set of A's or J's nothing more, so put myself behind) dont put him on a straight, cos he is that tight I dont even see him playing K, Q.... He checks, I check Turn Comes Ad (im now baffled, to see if he is holding a A and losened up for the bubble, which ive never seen him do and play withi him at least 3 times a week for 2 years) He checks, Im now lost, dont know where I am so through in 7,500 leaving me 22k behind he then sits, dwindles and smooth calls me! River 2d Now that brings the flush draw, he bets out 12,000, I sit, think, look at him, even try and chat to him to get info, but sits back and ignores me totally! At this point I fold and he shows Pocket 6's (apparently his birthday, 6th of 6th) and favourite hand, now as i see him as granite and dont want to donk of to put me in trouble, am i stupid to fold, putting myself in front, or am i giving someone way to much respect? and now do i fall into a trap and over play heads up against him next time! Oh and in the end he knocked me out in 4th, when i run, pocket j's into pocket 8's and him sealing my fate with a 8 on the turn! Anyway what do people think of my play!

So we have qq and call 4500 or do we raise pre? It gets cold called by a super tight nit, what about the other guy? We check the flop and then call a turn bet even though apparantly he can have either drawing dead or to two outs. We then fold the river and he has 66 because his opponents likes it. Am I right? Title: Re: Tourny Play - 2 From bubble Post by: TightEnd on April 06, 2008, 11:54:28 AM I think we have a read on the opponent
We then bet the turn going against our read We don't get a read on the river but fold going more with our orginal read, with a straight, flush and overcards out there then when he turns over 66 we find out our original read was way off all the way along I think. Its an odd one! Title: Re: Tourny Play - 2 From bubble Post by: Jaydeaa on April 06, 2008, 11:01:33 PM he knocked me out the southend sunday funday tourny too and now has me on serious tilt :(
