IPO- 3 painful hands....

[Cf]

OK so obv I called and lost against 99 even tho the door card was an ace (I run so bad)

I abs agree that this was the biggest mistake I made and should have folded. I called for the maths and should have thought more about tourney position. It was 145k a round, I could pic the dead 185k quite easily. I didn't think about it for long enough and have been guilty of this before. Lesson learnt.

Second hand:

I now have approx 1.4m in chips. Still table chip leader. Blinds are still 40k/80k/5k. It folds round to be in the sb. Tight French player has 580k total with 80k in the BB. What range of hands should I be putting the big blind in with?

What exactly do you mean by this statement?

Well I suppose against someone's random range, you need 2/1 to call. Obv in this spot I'm probably a 3/1 dog and should fold but as mentioned earlier I didn't take my time and thought "FuckitI'mgetting2/1IcouldbinkI'vegot1.5mbackwhichisplentyandatleastI'msendingamessagenottoreshiplight" CALL!

yeh out of the 3 this is probably the most simple. I set him in with Q10 and the big blind wakes up with AJ and holds.

A few hands later I have a stack of 895k with the same blinds and ante's. I have AJ utg still 5 handed. I should........

[poonjoe]

If he's tight, and given the tournament situation, I think you can and should shove ATC here.

This is deffo a shove as well.

[BulldozerD]

shove just about any 2 BvB and shove the AJ

[julian]

shove both & drown your sorrows v swiftly when it doesn't pan out

[George2Loose]

Yup I shoved AJ utg and the BB woke up with KK. The Ace high flop felt awesome I’d got out of it. I was back to 2 million. MBN. The king on the turn was not as nice.

So there we go- how to go from 2 million to dust 11 out. I think I misplayed the A5 hand and it cost me. Just one mistake can spiral. It’s nice to get the affirmation that most people would do the same in the other two hands. Even tho I know they’re standard it makes me feel 1% better knowing that players on here would go broke too.

I run bad. Not in poker but cos the eventual Sippe was to put it quite frankly, was a nob.

He got fortunate then when stacks shoved any 2 (they were on like 6 bigs) he found big hands and critizised players for shoving K5 and 53 respectivley. He then critised me in both the A5 and the Q10 hand

Worse still when the cards were on their back the AJ KK showdown he vocally said (I must re-iterate he was not in the hand) “Let’s put a King up there and get this over with) Obv the whole field is thinking that but they have the class and etiquette to keep their gobs shut! I told Kev afterward that he would win it just cos I run like shit when it comes to retarded wankers. I even doubled up some tosser at the cash game (spoiler for the report). Obv Blatch took the lot back off him in about 10 mins

We need wankers in poker to give us their money. UL George Wp. I don't think yr A5 mistake 'spiralled' into the others - It was a small error during a long tournament.

If the guy is super tight ATC is even more profitable!
