I have just travelled all the way to Birmingham to play in a satellite for the Celebpoker game on Tuesday. 7 players left, three tickets available. Me short stacked - go all in pre flop with with AQsuited - a good bet I think.
The inexperienced 'I've only played in two games before' decides to call me because he doesn't want me to go out - he will double me up.......... he has 5 10 of diamonds. Another short stack goes all in - he has nothing also. I AM AHEAD
All blanks but a growing flush draw for the diamonds and yes he gets his flush on the river.
1. Why did he have to be so chivalrous? Or was he being clever?
2. I nearly always lose if I go in ahead - when I'm behind I win all the time ;-(
Should we A) ban the river card for all on bets?
and B) was I right to let his tyres down?

The trick is not to leave yourself so short that you end up having to take A hi into a 3 way all in!

Hey James, thanks for your help yesterday
Tracey, you're a good player, have hardly seen you make a wrong move for months. I'm surprised this sort of thing bothers you!
P.S Do I get a free treatment now?

Aaaah - thank you - really nice thing to say I guess I was miffed because the palm beach who are a stanley casino too decided not to run satellites - and that would have been a proper game with proper players.... if you know what i mean? I really wanted to play the £100K gtee on Tuesday but didnt want to pay £1,000 to enter. Still I have a great alternative now...... Tracey PS - Free treatment - of course - as long as you agree to the web cam......  |

Also I know this may sound bad , but if i'm getting good odds to call a bet even with J9, 79 , 52 etc I'll call to try knock somebody out because unless they have a pair you're 60/40 shot most of the time.
Last night online took somebody out with 73o against their KQ but i was getting 2.5/1 to call it which I did go on to win the tourney
Sounds harsh but it works for me
