Good luck to Julian Thew, may the luck of the Irish....

[Ant040689]

I was 9/30 in this before I gifted Julian all my chips. 300k I had he had 250k pre with blinds at 2500/5000 500 ante, I open raise QQ from CO, folds around to him in the bb and he flats 33. Board 389 two diamonds he checks I cbet 15k, he rr to 42k I repop to 250k putting him in. I thought the fold or call was terrible and without thinking too much about the third option had my chips in without realising all options were terrible so you often HAVE to fold.

So gross to learn an important lesson this way. Played very well the whole tourney with exception to this and respect to Julian for putting me in this spot. One other factor making it worse for me and so great for him is with exception to the few players per table that weren't afraid to 3bet you were easily getting open bets through pre and little resistance really without it being quite obvious.

All the best to Julian, get it won sir!
