  7. In these spots, unless i have TPTK or better, I find it best to just check/fold the flop. If nobody wants to bet the flop, possibly take a shot at the turn depening on the situation.

    why did you raise?
  9. I raised because he had been very agressive at the table, making c bets on everyhand, and i figured he either had a low pair that he would lay down or two overcards to my pair. From then i feel i was priced in and it would have been an error to fold to his all in, because it would have left me with only 80k. But if i won the hand i would have had a real shot of winning the tourney.

  10. looool is this thread even real?
  11. Yes this thread is real D!ck, i just want to say thanks to everyone for sharing your vast knowledge of the game. This is a spot that confuses me and i often go busto on hands like these, but they work for everyone else. If this thread was posted by someone like gboro or durrr then there wouldnt be all these negative responses. Now give advice or F@ck off

  12. ppl have been giving u advice

    #1 - ppl told u to fold

    #2 - ppl told u not to min raise (just bc u check raised doesnt mean it wasnt a min raise, idk what ur point was b4)

    #3 - this isnt a C-bet, villian didnt raise pf and u shouldnt assume hes betting out into 3 players with just overcards esp in a hand where the blinds could have ATC

    #4 - u raised with a purpose (or so u claim) u said u think he would fold out the hands u have beat like low pps and over cards, so why do u continue when he shoves,

    #5 - no ur not priced in

    #6 - realize b4 u raise if ur gona be "priced in" and make sure ur initial decision takes into account ur playing for ur whole stack and not just 48k, and if u do decide ur priced in and u feel compelled to play ur hand i would just shove flop

    #7 - its a problem for u and u go bust all the time bc its a bad play

    #8 - it doesnt work for everyone else

    #9 - gboro wouldnt post a hand like this bc he already knows what everyone is trying to tell u
     
  13. Thank you for the help i appreachiate it.

    Lots of great points there, and im gonna work on my game, obviosly i know jack about poker but i want to improve.

  14. This belongs in hand advice as there is no depth to the hand in question.

    certain hands that have in depth analysis in tough spots/ that are learning opportunities, have valid arguments to be posted in PD.

    mod, please move.

    with that being said, please be a gimmick.
