Any reads on UTG+1? Against range of QQ+;AKo+, u have 38% equity, which is almost exact to your pot odds. If this range is reasonable then the call is EV neutral. So fortunately for u, it's hard to make a mistake here.

Yes I did think he had a pair but I did not think it to be Aces or Kings, I figured there was just enough in the pot to make it worthwhile to try and draw out on him.

Standard call.

Easy call.

It was good there were 123 people and I made it into the money, but only 14th, not far enough to get the good money. The levels go up every 15 minutes so unless you have a big stack you are in trouble pretty fast. You have to play a little hyper aggressive. It was a lot of fun however.

no, the small blind was 800, the big blind was only 400 so his raise to 1500 was well above the required minimum
