10350 EUR Main event

112k

I had been fairly quiet, and, just through circumstance, actually raised four hands in a row (others were Two Diamonds Two Clubs, , and ,and made an overall small loss in inconsequential pots)

The overall feel of the table is that the depth of stacks means that chips can be used to speculate with. This has led to some aggression, but actually more to call downs.

Raise UTG1 to 1k at BB400. UTG3 calls

two hearts.  I bet a small 800, he calls quickly.

(the quick call I think takes away from the chance of flush draws, and i think monsters)

two hearts . We get there. I decide to bet a big 3.5k into 4,400

Thinking at this point is that he is split fairly well between big hands (primarily 76 and 89),and hero call downs. Hero call downs are reasonably inelastic to bet size (as in, just as likely to call big bets than small). And, of course, the big hands will have to call down. So, two big bets now seem to fit.

Slow call

two hearts . Lovely blank.

I decide to bet 10k into 11,900, and we get a tank call

Delicious value. Nicely done.

118k

Spicy one.

There's a raise to 1,500 UTG. Player two to his left, in Gucci gear, who couldn't look more Italian if he tried,  3bets to 3, 300. Guy on his left cold calls.

We have on the button. This is a not untypical pot at our table, but there is alot going on here:

1) The 3x UTG raise is actually untypically big for his sizing. However, we are in a new blind level

2) The Gucci guy 3bet is definitely small.

3) The cold call, from the way he has played so far, will be reasonably strong, but will be capped.

Overall, it can't wrong to make it 10,000.

Just the Italian calls. Big pot. He does that quick "rasp" check of his cards, which maybe indicates suited or pocket pair.

Two Clubs. He checks.

The thing is, he can definitely have AK, and we can get him off it. It also should (may or may not be, but should) be difficult to call even a flop bet with, say, pocket nines

I bet 11k into 26,100, and we get the fold.

Two hands later, raise from the Hijack. Steady button calls, Italian calls big blind.



I bet 1,600 into 4k; the button player raises to 4,200.

It's interestingly small. Some thoughts to maybe try to get him off A9 begin now. However, I call.

. Check. He checks. Good news. He's going to have a 9 alot.



I think I may have to go for the demi-bluff, to get him off a 9. Sizing would be something 17k into 11k. My thoughts :

1) I look strong. He will probably (and correctly) think that I would play aces the same way, and would play the (albeit unlikely) quads the same way.

2) The small flop raise and turn check behind fit very nicely with him having a 9.

3) If I'm hopelessly wrong (which I have been known to be) and he decides I can have AK or AQ, then inadvertently i have created a merge, and may undeservedly get lucky and get value from 77 or 88. All in all, with him probably capped, it can't be  too far wrong to bet my 9.

4) However, there is some small worry about pocket tens, and of course a smaller one about 66 for the rivered better house

I decide to go for it, and bet the 1.5x pot bet of 17k.

We get a fold, and the tank suggests that maybe a 9 did go into the muck

Sigh

Raise cutoff. Big blind calls, big blind is the only really passive player, only one who has done zero out of line



He checks, I bet 1,100 into 3.2k. Call



He checks, i bet 3.8k into 5.4k. Call



This is close. He's been passive, but not overtly tight. It does bother me a small bit that he hasn't rechecked his cards at any point (more likely suited). He should, however, have alot of 2 pair combos, and can well call with them

I bet 8.2k into 13k

Its a mistake

He says "raise," and then says "20 thousand."

Even before the declaration of "raise," and the small sizing, I would be utterly amazed if this is a Bluff. Fold

Maybe river was wrong. Should potentially go with small sizing, even though that should be transparent, aiming for the crying two pair call, and losing less against a flush.

110k

Interesting thing about these long, well structured events (i.e this and Vegas main event) is that a lot of people I think bring an overly extreme attitude to day 1, which veers far too much either towards "I must make absolutely sure I survive," or "I must make sure I win as many chips as I can."

Table is the opposite of steady, it like something big is unavoidable, in whatever direction that may be.

After an eventful start, the table has calmed down a fair bit, and so have my interesting hands. Haven't made anything, 92,00,but all good. Still feel that one big pot may define the day, and that it may well be against the Italian
