I probably should have reraised preflop

[Graham C]

Justice has been served though, lost with my AA to 6 'but it's sooted' 5

and my kings busted by Q9s   Starting not to like it now

[kinboshi]

Don't worry Graham.

First hand KK v AA.  I lost all-in of course.

3rd hand KK again.  Q47 flop.  Against AQ who spikes an Ace on the river (all-in on the turn). 

Nice start to DTD...

[Royal Flush]

Why do you not 3 bet the turn?

[da_poker_monkey]

i have played in about 7 mmt's and lost like 7/8 50-50's in a row.  It's Party Poker all over again 4 me lol

Perhaps there's a moral in there somewhere................

Don't take chances on coinflips when your tournament life is at risk, wait until the odds are stacked in your favour.

Why do you not 3 bet the turn?

Was concerned about 78

Surely you meant to say that you had such a good read on him that you knew he had the same hand as you and knew that he wouldn't fold to betting.

[Graham C]

Why do you not 3 bet the turn?

I had a great read on him and knew he wouldn't fold to a bet and we'd only be playing more in rake. I obviously studied the previous hand histories that you can see when you first sit at a table so I knew exactly how he played.

Yes, that's what happened

Thanks, got me out of one there
