bacardirum Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Not played in a tourny for a while so entered $3 one last night on stars, was sitting quite comfortable after more than 3 hours of play, avg chip stack was 80k, had about 120k. Got dealt 66, blinds were $4000 at this point, and I raised b4 flop $8000, all folded apart from one player who called - flop came 5 6 7, my thinking is he cant have a straight, cause here we are deep in tourny and I raised too, so I bet again $8000 hoping for some action with my trips or a fold, he called. turn card was k, 5 6 7 k, good card for me or so I thought, and in fact it was, he went all in, he had $140k or so, I couldnt think what he could be on, nor did I think he had a straight. So I called, he had 4 7, was very happy to see this, but not when the 8 came next :wall Why I hate poker :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bignedkelly Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Re: Just unlucky I guess lol . wtf was he doing with 47 omg . if hes got 47 in the big blind and there is already 14k in the pot (possible 18k if there is a running ante and its a full table) then he is getting great odds to make the call imo 4k to win 14k - its a call for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you dont hit hard its an easy fold and you have lost 4k of your 120k stack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
