  1. Last hand before first break, lost with KK to AK just before this...

    Thought I played this hand well, and yes I know its a bad beat....

    Just wondering how the masters of P5's would have played it differently and won the pot?

    <span>imo its this right here. just shove.</span>
  4. At this poing I'm just trying to get him to commit, don't think he has hearts or one of the other 7's. I guess a shove might win a small pot, which is always better than losing a big pot..

  5. so your question is.....you got all your chips into the pot with the best hand and a big favorite on most rivers, and your questiong whether you should have folded since you got unlucky?........................REALLY?
  6. Pre-flop, you pick a pretty weak hand to defend HU from the bb.

    That being said: You flop and turn the world and get it all-in with him drawing to 3-outs.

    Post flop play redeemed your loose pre-flop call.
