Sunday Million- Raymer's bustout hand

[0evg0]

And proof that the Sunday Million is nothing but a large organized lottery that probably hands out scholarships with the rake money.

i was the player who went allin and i think raymer made a bad call. i certainly would not go allin with a pair lower than tens, i would have just called preflop, and i very well might go allin with jj or QQ.

Sounds like you admit you wouldnt push with KK or AA so maybe next time reraise a smaller amount?

[kleath]

Perhaps you should have typed "I have AK and am isolating" in the chat before you shoved. I def agree with Raymers assessment, based on the stacks I can't imagine your range having Raymer beat, I think you're looking with a biased eye in regards to your range to make it seem like you outplayed follisman or something.

obviously my most likely hand is ak however my range is not any pp. it is qq and jj and possibly 99.

So given your incredibly tight range of 99-QQ and AK, he's 47.4 to 52.6 and needs 1.11:1 to call.

He's getting 1.09:1.

Now keep in mind this is for that range, which I think you should definitely take QQ out of at least partially - if you take out 2 of the combinations of QQ now suddenly Raymer is 50/50 vs. your range, and still your range is incredibly tight.

What are you doing with AQ here? Are you really flatting PPs <9s?

IMO, Raymers situation is much tougher in the million where people are way less likely to PUT THEIR TOURNAMENT LIFE ON THE LINE!!! light.

In some random stars 109/150 or 100r or what not his logic is excellent, in this tournament it becomes way more borderline unless villain is known thinking player.
