unreal!

[DeanReeves66]

was just in NY times 20 ppl left i was 2nd in chip lead with 11k and the chip leader was at my table with 12k...
got dealt AA so i raise 1k got re raised by the chip leader another 600 so i re raised to 5k then she went all in with 12k i call obviously she turns over KQ!!!! (KQ is not an all in hand) off suit as well, she hits top pair on flop turn was a blank then yes rivered again a king comes on the river..

bad play i think!
whats ur opinion?

[LfcFan]

Hmmm bad beat i would agree with and her play was a bit donkeyish, but not even pocket rockets is a safe all-in bet. Personally i wouldnt have re-raised that high.She had a chance at 2pair,trips,straight,FH with probably better odds than u hittin top pair,trips 4of a kind.
Her all-in was stupid though considering her position as chip leader

Yes, but when I write a thread on this I'm up there next to, Jesus Christ, yes your right! Amen brother.

i was there ul dean

[Earp10]

one thing ive found out at family poker nights is when statistically u have it someone will think they have it not knowin what u got and still win in real cards . even though a program or script or a book says u got it statistically u never know. thats when i have to watch where my father in law hid the ace under table lol

[sexynomore]

Thanks for all your congrats guys. I guess that was my last game! Bye all

P.S. LFC, I think you do understand the game well. It's not all about odds, I am a numbers person by trade. I know when and how cards come up. I know that there are 52 cards, 4 suits, 13 cards per suit. I can divide in my head with the best of them.

Sorry if you got beat. What was your raise all about in the first place?

[jimmysymtex]

Not sure if it was such a bad play as you might think...It was quite possible that Dean had a pair of 10s or Js...Maybe sexy was hoping for a fold after her all in...Either way she had a chance to take out the second chip leader and given it would give her a massive advantage if it came off,thought it worth the gamble.Its nice to see she had the courage to make that play...

[DeanReeves66]

look all im trying to say is its pretty obvious that she was beat when i re raised comminting half my stack, i wouldnt make this play with hands like JK/KQ/TT/JJ there not strong enough hands to do this in early/mid possision..so what kind of hand did she put me on to make the call?? i have no idea...
im not trying to say ur a bad player 2sexy4u coz i know ur not dont take it the wrong way after all its only free(as ppl say) but i play the same in free chips as i do in cash, would u of went all in with kq off suit if it was on a high buy-in cash tournament risking ur tournamnet life with a hand like that?

[jimmysymtex]

Come on Deano,Give the girl some credit for making that play.She would have known she was probably behind,but your raise of only 1k from your stack of 11k would not have indicated AA to most.She would have been thinking a K or Q on the flop would have put her in a pretty strong position..If you had 10s or Js would you have called her all in.....I didnt see it,but it looks to me like it was the play of the tourny...Its never wise to slow play AA Deano...

[JimCash0014]

Sexy no reason to quit. I had A,K and all in I went and the guy called 6,8 and beat me. Then I came over to your table just in time for you to finish me off.
Your play is strong compared to my bad beat. And you have the gold. A medal sometimes takes chances like that to win. One of mine was won on an all in for a flush on the river and got. I was lucky but I have a gold medal too.
I don't mind losing to face cards. It's numbers I hate. If you read my posts or threads you'll see that.

So keep playing and gathering the minerals(medals), it's all for fun and friends anyway.

From a strategy viewpoint it becomes clear why one playing AA must initially raise to reduce the number of competitors before the flop. Well, i think that you are doing nothing wrong, you should just keep up with the same strategy, AA is the best hand to start, but if you let too much ppl hit the flop, someone will hit a better hand then a pair, raising in the pre-flop against many opponents is to take them away.


I have no hard feelings, I was playing as agressive as you were. Hitting that third ace is difficult to get. You were in a better position pairing up one of your lower cards. Would I play this agressive on a money table, probably not. I have seen you play all-in on a lesser cards as well.

i didnt slow play it m8 the blinds were 150/300 and the average stack was 3k ..i never slow play big hands will end up getiing rivered or summin lol

[LfcFan]

Sorry if you thought i was getting at ya and putting you down "sexy".That was not my intention.
I just feel you were both playing it in a way i would probably not.
Now im thinking that im giving away to much of my game and i play it to tightly in a torny.Got wiped out earlier with a soft move on the flop.
I guess there are no hard fast rules to how play should be.Each to there own ay?
Dean,maybe you are feeling the after shock of a bad beat?

No hard feelings, just watch out for me next time on the tables. If you want some lessons, just PM me sometime - lol, just kidding.

Thanks for the reply!

[Tb1rd]

Personally I wouldn't have called YOU with it, however I've called with lesser hands on people that I either don't know or know will go in on pocket 10's etc.. In saying that I wouldn't have risked my chips lead on it, MAYBE if it was suited, but unsuited deffinately not. But If I was up against AA I must KQ suited would be my hand of choice... well any live suited connectors.. but that's just bad luck on your part mate.

[LfcFan]

To sexy for her 1st gold medal,nobody can take that away from ya.
Now i dont wanna hear any more talk about leaving,ok?

PS sexy,ty for the kind bit about me having a good understanding of the game,im learning lol but think my achivements are way above my skill level

Ok....here we go again.....new rule.....if someone raises pre-flop....we must assume that they have a better hand and therefore.......we all must fold....no matter what.....we are NOT allowed to go all in.......c'mon folks............there is NO PROPER WAY TO PLAY POKER!!!!!!
