Title: What to do Post by: Newportlad on December 05, 2005, 08:30:46 PM After some advice please.
Im in MTT $5 rebuy, and there are 28 players left. Pays down to 20th. Im currently in 4th place with 38K in chips. blinds 500 - 1000. I get dealt Ah Kh in mid position. I caller in front of me. I raise to 4K, and its gets re-raised to 20K by the (slight) chip leader. What should i have done?

Title: Re: What to do Post by: brad.strider on December 05, 2005, 08:56:05 PM by the sound of your post you feel making the money is important, if so you fold.i would go all in! but then again i usually lose! >:?
Title: Re: What to do Post by: Newportlad on December 05, 2005, 09:00:49 PM No, the money isnt important, just pointing out that its near the money in the tourney
Title: Re: What to do Post by: Ironside on December 05, 2005, 09:03:36 PM your not in and stack problem and at this stage you dont really want to be going against someone that can knock you out in a 50/50 so i would fold
Title: Re: What to do Post by: Newportlad on December 05, 2005, 11:12:26 PM Thanks for the replies.
I did fold the hand, as i thought i could wait for a better opportunity than a coinflip. BTW: In the end i finished a disapointing 13th Title: Re: What to do Post by: thetank on December 06, 2005, 07:43:25 PM It was a good pass. (Always harder to do when they're the same pretty colour.)
13th pays more than 28th :D Title: Re: What to do Post by: lvlarc_uk on December 07, 2005, 12:29:35 AM Yeh I would of folded too, but im a chicken :(
Title: Re: What to do Post by: byronkincaid on December 07, 2005, 01:58:12 AM Not sure that this is as easy a fold as everyone is saying. It has to be very dependent on how the other guy is playing, if he's reraised a few times before I think this is an easy call. In a vacuum with no info whatsoever I'm still erring towards calling. why has he pumped it up to 20K? Maybe if he's got AA or KK his raise will be a bit smaller?
