I'm never ever passing here. Even a tight player is shoving 77/88/99/1010/JJ/AQ/AK vs a cut off jam here so folding QQ would be silly, especially as we should be playing to win the tournament not waiting for the bubble to burst.

Ok sometimes he shows up with AA/KK here but you can't do anything but re-jam imo.

Perfect explanation for the re jam.

Another reason is your stack size. You've got 46k now and there's about 45k in the middle.

If you call and win you're on 91k and in with a great chance of taking the tournament down.

If you lose you're still on 20k and in certainly not in a desperate situation.

Upside 91k, downside 20k. QQ can never be a pass in this situation.

You can muck Jacks in this spot, but Queens are just too strong, ship it in!

(answer would have been the same pre-reveal!)

I'm snapping 1010 and JJ too

Something against 99?

You big nit!!!!

No-one calls me a nit. no-one! Fight in the car park outside DTD on saturday?!

I probably slowroll think for a second with 99.

Sorry Cos I promise I won't do it again.

Please don't hit me. I bruise easily.


Book open

Cos 5/6
Evils 3/1

Must be clean knock out or death by chocolate

I might be older than him but my ridiculous raw physical power and ridiculously amazing fighting techniques won't help him.

On reflection, this post is ftw imo..  I've been trying to pursude myself that my reasoning was ok but the fact that's it's a rejam doesn't suggest that I'm a million miles behind.   Hopefully have learned from this

£bankroll (small) on Matt in the fight please Cheesy

why would u ever consider folding? you know the purpose of an MTT is to win all the chips and in this scenario you have most of the time been given two player's full stacks - one hand in the air rejam and keep your hand in the air till  all the mad dimez are passed to your stack yo
Logged

Sure will fold sir.......
