  2. What kind of tournament was this? The guy goes all in for over 5k into a 1k pot on a flush draw? How did he make it that far? You just got unlucky there man. You want that situation every time. Keep playing solid poker and you'll be back at the final table soon.

  3. It was only a 45 player $5 dollar buy in thankfully. I've only been playing a couple of months and dont have a huge bankroll. I've been doing pretty well at the single table sit n go's so thought I would have a go at a multi table.

    It was pretty frustrating. That guy went on to come 3rd.

  4. Vestan, I like your play there. I do the same thing in that situation, and eyes light up when I see the push. Got unlucky.

    Question though, what do you do there if BarbarianX checks on the turn? 1425 in the pot at that point.
  5. had he checked, i would have bet a substantial amount having seen the flush draw there to try to take the pot down. Had he reraised all in to be honest I would still have called it.
