  1. damn could have a taken a week off from the SNG/tourney grind with a win or second here. this is prob bad hand. This guy 4x a decent size range from CO, has a bit of donk in him. howeva, he probably folds most of the stuff i beat here.

    im a turbo SNGer so don't like flops. bah. should have probably flatted played a flop.

    A7 is like 50 50 with his range from cutoff. nontheless he probably folds alot before the flop with stuff i beat.

    i dont know i suppose it is not the worst hand eva played nontheless stings a bit.

  2. i don't like any of that hand.
    if you think you're ahead before the flop shove. that's either shove/fold pre.

    other than that, i don't like the flop bet either

    i think this was played terrible.
  3. take a week off anyway to review your play imo

    its effectively a shove preflop if you know your jamming the flop...
    so its basically a preflop shove.

    its a 1400 person tourney so prize jumps are big so the raiser is going to only call when your crushed considering there were two short stacks.

    obv if you can outplay the guy on the flop might be a spot to play a flop instead.

    i pwn pretty hard. but i mostly play 180 man turbos. would have probably won TLB title for week with a win in this.

    hence everytime i get deep in tourneys now (cause i stopped playing for a long time i revert to turbo SNG play at some point)

    they should have that on p5s imo

    how would you have played this different?

    im not comfortable playing flops with the guy cause he is kind of spewy post flop. i.e. i cant bluff him post flop.

    so meh i dont know. i figure i have a similar range hand as him and can get him to fold. i don't know i could have just let him steal a few cause the shortstacks were going to hand me chips. bah.

  8. this is basically a SHOVE/FOLD preflop
    you can't flatcall that imo
  9. What i want to know is why you dildos change all the names on the hand histories and leave your profiles blank.
  10. Aren't we like 40ish bb's deep? Way to deep to just shove. 3 bet smaller, like 50k max, probably more like 44k. Flop...I dunno...but shoving definately isn't the right answer. Either bet/fold or bet/call and this is definately player dependant.

    i told you above. i flat called with the intention of shoving any flop.

    its the same thing as a shove. you probably pick up more fold equity.

    since im an SNG donk and im gonna end up getting 2 : 1 to call pre im calling pre anyway.

    running the numbers its probably like neutral chip EV because he's probably folding pre a really high percentage.

    we're like 38 bbs deep his 4x is standard which starts the problems.

    i suppose a small reraise behind and small flop bet would be fairly effective in figuring out where we are in this hand i dont think he would try a bluff after this.

    obv. i leave myself in 3rd just ahead of the other two stacks this way. i can probably still manage a second or third.

    obv also this is a better play in a 180 person turbo sit and go where you just need to mass chips as fast as possible.

  13. this again, makes no sence??
    why would you do that??
    so if the jk9 you're shoving the flop

    you dont understand. if you have seen any kind of poker you have seen this play. stop and go its pretty standard these days.

    so say my opponent had AK AQ AJ on this flop i get him to fold where as pre he does not fold.

    there is really no downside to flatting pre than jamming. its the same thing as going all in pre. with more fold equity in cases where you have marginal hands.

  15. Fwiw, I might just fold pre. 3 betting kinda sucks cuz we can't really call a shove. Flatting kinda sucks because it's a7o out've position. Shoving sucks because we're WAY to deep to just shove. Ya I think I like fold. Sooted I flat.

    Here are the names since he left the hand number. But OP blocked all his stats from Sharkscope (although 16K sng played @ 29% ROI, well done!) and OPR.

    i think fold is fine cause he is an opponent where im not going to know where i stand in the hand and i can probably catch him at a later spot.

    alot of times with a readable opponent flatting and playing the flop seems fine.

    bah overall though when i run the numbers i dont think my play was horrible cause as long as my assumption on his range is correct he is folding a real big percentage of the time.

    obviously, i need a bit of work on flop skills and reg tourney skillz.

    understood. but these days a stop and go is the same thing as a preflop shove imo.

    obviously stop and go can still work on some occasions against bad opponents.

    there is no difference between shoving A7 pre and stop and going it it is effectively the same thing. i dont know why you cant see that.

    if he knew i was going to jam any flop than its the same exact thing as jamming pre.

    obv you can say jamming A7 pre is bad fair enough.

    and i understand why you cant see both those options are the wrong play here

    EDIT: oops didnt read the last line
  24. Dreams crushed? At least you played bad.....my AA vs QQ all in preflop was beaten by a 5% on the river...for outright chiplead and 3k.

    Busted 6th for a measly 600
  25. Meh.. you had a big stack and went against the other big stack :/... the one person who could take you out here. You know he isn't calling/raising with a worse hand. I'd fold pre though myself. For the simple reason its a bad hand to see a flop with, and bad hand to call a reraise with at this stage.
  26. Jesus... Fold pre. Why tangle with the other big stack with such a shitacular hand and when he called your 3 bet pre you obv should have known your 7 was not good on flop.
  27. sorry if this was already answered, but what tourney as this?

    It's tilting me to keep seeing stop n go when it's a go n go, which shows much more strength than a stop n go. In any event, I fold pre. Two stacks at 10-12 bbs and you and the other guy are 35 bbs + not sure why you inflate a pot OOP with a7o.
  29. POCKET fucking CRONKS
     
  30. This thread is tilting the fuck out of me, jesus how did you even FT this?
