KQo On the Bubble

[LetsWinBaby]

hi first time poster here, just looking for some advice on general bubble play and how i maybe couldve played this hand differently, fold preflop? bet the flop? I always read that you should loosen up on the bubble, but i would prefer to be tight and make the money first, anyway i think even if i played it bad it was still a :pukebeat. ** Game ID 867723943 starting - 2007-11-10 21:59:24 ** $2,750 GTD $20 NLHE Freezeout[1522684]:Table 17 [Multi Table Hold 'em] (600.00|1200.00 No Limit - MTT) Real Money - 63jimboy sitting in seat 1 with $5035.92 [Dealer] - Lets_WinBaby sitting in seat 2 with $14285.13 - paulwmather sitting in seat 3 with $23334.24 - Jadedfox sitting in seat 4 with $29346.25 - SCANNA sitting in seat 5 with $7805.17 - WHU145 sitting in seat 6 with $10613.08 - mousie sitting in seat 7 with $8770.80 - palletheplay sitting in seat 8 with $7071.60 [sitting out] - ellise sitting in seat 9 with $9999.47 - kas-36 sitting in seat 10 with $9227.66 Lets_WinBaby posted the small blind - $300.00 paulwmather posted the big blind - $600.00 ** Dealing card to Lets_WinBaby: King of Clubs, Queen of Diamonds Jadedfox folded SCANNA folded WHU145 folded mousie folded palletheplay folded ellise folded kas-36 raised - $2400.00 63jimboy folded Lets_WinBaby called - $2400.00 paulwmather called - $2400.00 ** Dealing the flop: 8 of Hearts, 9 of Clubs, Queen of Spades Lets_WinBaby checked paulwmather checked kas-36 checked ** Dealing the turn: 6 of Spades Lets_WinBaby bet - $3600.00 paulwmather went all-in - $21534.24 kas-36 folded Lets_WinBaby went all-in - $8585.13 paulwmather shows: 7 of Clubs, 7 of Spades ** Dealing the river: 5 of Spades paulwmather wins $31570.26 from the main pot End of game 867723943

Re: KQo On the Bubble I would have folded preflop. If I had called I would have bet big on the flop. The other guy played the hand to take it down after you bet half the pot on the turn Knowing he was either ahead or had possbly 10 outs and a 66% chance of you folding (incidently am in the 66% that would fold to the reaise) So you did everything I wouldnt which is what makes poker fun!
