Reckon I made a bad call on the bubble?
« on: June 09, 2008, 01:04:26 AM »
live casino poker tournand out of 20 runners top 3 get paid

down to final 4 and im small stack (20k) and on the big blind (2k big 1k small) and have approx 6/7 rounds of betting left in me

person on the button makes it 4k to play, small blind folds and i look at AJ diamonds

being so short stacked i shoved all in feeling she was getting a bit on tilt as she had 30k left but at one point had approx 100+k of the chips out of 160k but lost 3 big hands to double everyone else at the table up over a ten minute period, including me as i only had 7k at one point but doubled up when my 77 beat her AQ (especially when i hit a 7 on the flop) then my AK to her KQ


so i turn over my AJ to her queens and i dont improve and im out on the bubble

reckon i made the right choice and i donr regret my losing - just gutted that i went out 1 spot from the money


would you have done the same

Ace-Jack playing four handed is a big hand especially considering that you are short stacked. You went with your read - but what was it that made you think she might be "tilted"?

Did you miss out on the opportunity to pick up on the fact that she had a big hand?

Overall, I believe most people would be all-in here unless they had a darn good reason to fold. You lost this time - don"t let that discourage you from making the same call next time.

i agree shoving is the right option as ur way way ahead of the range she is likely to be opening from on the button, just be interested to know if her raises up until this hand had been bigger
