Well that was a tough tourney!! Had Praz on my starting table, and taking him off a pot with triple barrell bluff early on was the highlight of my day. After that, it was all downhill. Raised into the short-stacked Dave Scothern with 89s, and found myself having to spew call his shove and losing. Ended up donking the rest to Paul Jackson when I shoved over his raise, and he couldn"t find a fold with AA.
I"ve seen a still of the TV tab on FB with AJ sat with AA and you"re on the button with 55. Is that the exit hand? If so he"s fairly early pos to be raising light?? What were the stacks?
Where"s the still pic? - wouldn"t mind a copy.
yeah it was the exit hand. During the deal a K was exposed and burnt, prior to Paul opening in early position. I was in late position with 55 and only 8.5xBB. I had been completely card dead since the early levels, and a pocket pair was an absolute premium for me - had to go with it and hope he had overs including a K, perhaps AK. Also, the stacks to my left were massive, so it was unlikely I was going to get any LP steals through the blinds with my small stack.
