The AK hand vs the other big stack, if the river had been a better card I would have agreed with your friend to value bet it, but the Q makes a likely 2 pair card in a lot of ways, QJ, AQ,Q9, plus it completes a gut shot str8. I think its pretty clear that he does not have AJ, there is no way he checks the turn and river with AJ, but there arent to many hands you now have beat. Other than A10 or a small PP or JJ.

I was very nervous on this one. The big stack was a little crazy. I was lucky he didnt flop two pair in the blind here.

I was talking to one of my pro friends about this hand during play. He said to maximize EV I should have just called the all-in and let someone else come in. I disagree. In a tournment...maximzing EV (IMO) isn't as important as survival. If I let someone come in that flop and they beat me...I would never stop kicking myself. Thoughts?

I folded this AQ pretty easily. I didn't want to get in a race on the final table unless I had a significant chip advantage. The player was also very tight. My friend said he would have gone with it...but I think letting it go was correct.

This was obviously a monster hand. I did not like going after the big stack like this...but AK couldn't be let down. The big stack was making a lot of raises preflop...but I still couldn't will myself to reraise preflop. I did not want to risk all my money preflop.
My friend told me to value bet this river. I told him he was insane. AJ, AQ, any set were all beating me.
I ended up losing the tourney with AQ to 99. Only my second race of the day.
And the only time I was covered. i stole a ton of blinds this tourney and I was very proud of taht.Statistics: Posted by kennyg — Thu Jun 30, 2005 2:30 pm
