Did I take the right desicion????
 

I was at a live tournament last night, 16 players left, 11 places paid....

My stack was 5100 chips on the BB(600), a large stack in the middle raises to 3000, folds to me and I had AK off, I was about 8th in chips, I figured he had a big pair, but my thinking was that I needed to double again to have a chance in the tourny, I re-raise him all in, and instacalls, shows JJ and I didn't pair…..

That was a race I was willing to take in order to win the tournament, but when I turned my hand my friend who was tailing me, tells me what a horrible decision I made.....

Anyway, I just want to hear some thoughts for the next time. Online I would do that EVERY time, but, I can start the next tourny in 2 minutes, last night I had to go home............

Let me guess, your freind is the bubbleboy?

Re: Did I take the right desicion????
 

I made the desicion, and was ok with the outcome , But my friend told me I was wrong.... If my friend doesn't argue with me, I would not be still thinking about it...

but thx, Kyle

You were 8th in chips with 9BB? Sounds like a good tourney!

Re: Did I take the right desicion????
 

Ill assume your friend is a douchebag bubble staller. He is wrong and an idiot. Please punch him in the face for me.

sad.......

Re: Did I take the right desicion????
 

if you put him on QQ or less your decision is a good one. what was your friend's reasoning?

Re: Did I take the right desicion????
 

WTF? It's 9BB with AK!

Re: Did I take the right desicion????
 

He said that AK is not better than 2-3, if you don't pair....

If I folded that, I would've probably cashed, but I was there to win it.

Yeah, he's probably right. AK and 2-3 have about equal showdown value if unimproved.

Ask him if 23 is better than AQ. Then tell him he is an idiot, and punch him in the face with a BBV ring on so he has to walk around all day with that [censored] on his forehead.

Ask your friend how many hands 3-2 has dominated.
