A few of you may no that I wasnt too impressed to pay £275 per hand on Saturday at Gala, the exit was pure standard, but the start of the decimation of my stack made me wonder if I could have kept it smaller.

Cant remember the exact details as I proceeded to get very drunk after my exit but it went something like this.

Approaching the end of Level 1 25/50, everyone has roughly the 10k they started with.

Tim Blake makes it 150 from MP
I find    on the button and make it 425
He now makes it 1100

I assume the next step is pretty straight forward but would like to see if any opinions here differ................

at this early stage 200bb deep I quite like the peel with position rather than the 3b here

pass

When you get 4-bet pre at 25/50 it usually means one of two hands. Both crush AK and can put you in trouble

Depending on oppo I prefer to 4 bet here.

Make it about 2400. I don't like to see a flop with this hand at all. Flat small pairs, raise AK.

If he raises again just muck the fucker. If he's outplayed you with a bluff WP him.

if you're reraising because you don't want to see a flop then aren't you turning ak pf into a bluff?

i  5 bet/fold

as played check behind on flop

especially against Tim Blake

he is a v good player - but plays super super tight (ie zero hands) for the first few levels

3bet pre is fine. Flat the 4bet - we have position so can hopefully keep control of the pot size later on.

Check the flop.
