IS this the right play? final table 180 person MTT.

Postby Yenool » Sun Aug 06, 2006 2:18 am

Now, I lost this hand obviously, but I want to know, given the situation and my chip stack, is this the correct play?
This is the best hand I have seen in a long time, we are 6 handed and the blinds are 1000/2000 with a 100 ante.

The guys to act before me have a huge stack and are bound to have a go at my blinds next hand, also I feel if I don't move this hand I have no fold equity left?

Anyway, is this play long term +EV?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t2000 (6 handed) from (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

saw flop|saw showdown

SB (t76970)
BB (t38764)
Hero (t14695)
MP (t25657)
CO (t36040)
Button (t77874)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with KImage, QImage.
Hero raises to t14595, 4 folds, BB calls t12595.

Flop: (t27690) 8Image, 9Image, 8Image (2 players)

Turn: (t27690) AImage (2 players)

River: (t27690) QImage (2 players)

Final Pot: t27690

Results in white below:
BB has Ad As (full house, aces full of eights).
Hero has Kc Qd (two pair, queens and eights).
Outcome: BB wins t27690.

If you are gonna play that hand, in that position, then you played it right.
You had the most fold equity.
Once the blinds pass you, you willl not be THAT much of a threat to the medium stacks.

Well played.

Could you post the payout structure? Thanks

(I'd fold it UTG, but I may be wrong)

you could make this play with a lot more hands... esp for an open raise from better position.

also, don't be so sure that people are going to go after your blinds because you are short-stacked. popular theory is that you should pick on the medium stacks not the short stacks -- the short stacks will likely call with a wide range, so you actually need to have a decent hand to raise their blinds.
