Ill give a report for fun
Got the start time wrong but luckily went on just to check how many runners it would get and had only missed 5 mins. Regged for a couple of other jobbies but tried to keep tables down to 4 max to keep some focus. Got HEM running on tilt which was pretty useful, actually think its pretty sweet for mtt's as you can miss some stuff. Early on appeared table was pretty bad after a guy tried a kinda sick bluff that didnt make sense and a guy made a good call. Pegged him as decent before i saw him stackoff 99 with about a million bb's v a tight utg open and bink to have about 15k after 25 mins. Stayed fairly inactive for the first 45, picked up a few and just tried to get a solid read on the table. Was up to about 6.5k when i squeezed 1010 in the SB 3way pre and got the overcaller (a fish) to come along for the ride. Really not sure if i should or shouldnt be cbetting AK6 v this guy unless im gonna fire a second barrel but i bet, he called and a Jack peeled which i check folded on. Not really happy about any of my options there, as the pot was quite big and i cant rely on him folding top pair + gutterball or 2 pair as im fairly sure he has AJ or (less likely coz i have the blockers) A10. I doubt hes floating me in a 3bet pot on AKX anyhow, just seemed a fishy abc type. Had to tone it down for a while as the table makeup changed and two shortstacks moved chips. After break prolly had about 4.5k when i made a possible brainfart. I open A8ss from the cutoff, folded to a BB with 10k who defends. Flop 1045s and he checkraises me 630 ott of my 220 cball. Hes been pretty solid/slightly trappy up to now but im fairly certain the top of his range is like Q10/J10 and he has a tonne of 66/77/88/99 that he hates playing with a c/c oop i think. Anyhow i figured i have a tonne of FE given how strong this looks plus i do play my monsters like this, have some equity if called and his range for calling a jam is tiny compared to his cring range, so shoved and he timebank called with K10. Pretty sure this was a fkup on my part as i should just make hands and vbet them to death in the early rounds but im rusty.
