Playing a live 30 pound re-buy the other day, still blinds 200 400 on a full table of 9, I'm second in chips with about 7500 in chips (starting chips 1000) chip leader also on the table with around 8500 in chips.
I'm in last position with
Chip leader in 4th position raises to 800 everyone folds around to me, I call. BB also calls with only 2300.
Flop
.
BB checks, chip leader checks, I raise to 800. BB folds, chip leader pushes all in.
I call, he shows
and knocks me out.
After this hand someone said I shouldn't of made the call, but at the time I thought I had the hand won. After some thought maybe I shouldn't have played this hand, and waited for a better spot, or not gone up against the chip leader that early? You know I don't know what to think, but its sitting on my mind.
Any advice guys, or how would you have played that hand?
EDIT The guy with the chip leader has been raising every pot in every position normaly 2 / 3 x bb and taking most pots there and then. Playing very loose, raising 800, 1200 nearly every hand when being called having poor cards, but winning with them. I can remember he rasied 800 with
and was called, and won. And had
raise of 1200, won the pot.
