blinds were at 50/100, i had red AA on the bb. 1st player after utg (about 8000 chips) raises to 500, i (about 7000 chips) reraise to 1500, he instacalls. flop is Js 8s 7h. I bet 2000, he instacalls again. the turn comes a 6s, I check, he bets 2000. I have about 3500 left, and i decided to fold.

do you think that was the right play?

No. What hand do you put him on? AKs? It seems like there are quite a few other hands preflop that he could play that way. Did he appear good? Tight? Do you give off a vibe of confidence, or does he percieve you as an Oklahoma hick who doesn't know what he's doing? I could see him on almost any AK, with either one being a spade, or KK, or QQ, or AJ, or JJ. Hard to say...

Anyway, for you and anyone else, can you give impressions of the tournament? I've got a Saturday start date. Any suggestions, tips, general comments?

My mouth is watering at the thought of a 5/10 PLO game running at Winstar, but unfortunately, I just cannot justify the bankroll risk of playing in it.
