My main event is over for another year.
With blinds at 800/1600 with a 200 ante I am in the BB with only 10,000 left . It is passed to the button who raises to 5k . Sb folds and I look down at A 10. The button seems a solid player but I don't think I have the luxuary of laying down A 10 to a button raise. We are only 100 ish from the money . can I fold and make it? Unlikley. I move in , it's only 4900 more for him to call. He thinks about it and I know i am ahead, I pray he has a7 , a9 or something. . He calls and tables 68s he hits the turn with a 6 and my wsop ends. He was getting 3.5/4-1 on the call but I thought his raise was poor given there are not many hands I can let go given my stack .
Still such is poker , I have played well and lernt a lot . My bets need to be better sized and turning up for the start of the tourney probably helps.
good luck to all Blondes and uk players left in.
thanks for everyones support , it means a lot.

Unlucky. How many chips did he have when calling you? I am guessing that the only reason for calling is that he could afford to. Better luck next time. |
