Julian joint chip leader, Alex shortstack, good chance to see how 2 strong players play their big & shortstacks respectively

@MtSpewmore I wouldn't normally try so hard, but didn't have another opportunity I could wait for. I wasn't ready to surrender what I WANTED SO MUCH, that easily, I couldn't guarantee a call with me staying stoic and relying on a flinch "top pair" calling reflex.

Laddered to 7th, got a double up to 16bbs, shoved btn over Ross' cutoff open with 98dd (pretty much worst hand I was shoving in that spot) and he had AK and held (flopped a fd for sweat but no joy).
Got £9.5k which is a nice amount of course, but bit gutted having been chip leader for 2days straight more or less.

Well done, Alex. Another deep run. Must get a Birmingham flag?

Hi Alex, well done on the result, shame it wasn't higher but 9k easies the pain abit.
I was watching the live stream at the start of the day and one particular hand impressed me. The one where you held J9 and hit 2 pairs on the river. Was it an easy fold or did you just not want to tangle with another big stack?

Thanks Andrew.
It was reasonably easy fold since although I had two pair (J9 on 9872J) I could beat anything she was value betting and I didn't think she was bluffing ever in that situation. A year or two ago I might've frustratingly flicked in the call, because the hand was very annoying the way I knew id been rivered and how up-against it I knew she was on the turn when I had the flush draw as well. I was really pleased with the way I played the hand, raising the turn like the commentators said I should do would've been a really horrible play.

Think a good way to learn on these streams is do the exact opposite of what the commentators say.
