My "Late Night Poker" Experience

[DTD-ACES]

Hi Simon

As this was one of the early heats i can't fully recollect it , if you played it as described i don't see much wrong . Obviously all we as players can ever do is based on the circumstances of the time , if you were in positon you were correct to flat call pre flop , on the flop you could have raised and hope he had AJ and moved in , i would however risk a free card to the flush , it's hard to put it down if a Q falls on the turn as AK is unlikely with his bet on the flop unless he is representing an over pair as preflop reraiser and hopes you also have an A you will pass , on the turn once he bets i would probably move in , even if he has AK you have a set and a flush draw , however as i say i don't fully remember this one , obviously we will see it on TV and you will hear exactly how i felt it should have been played , i hope you enjoyed the experience , all the best .

Hi Simon
Thanks for the reply. The only comment that I know you made was that it would be a good play if he went 'all in' over the top of my re raise (he did!). I was told that afterwards by someone who was listening in the holding room. It was a great deal of fun and a real thrill to play.
