Re: Always going bust to set over set?

Thanks for your replies. I think what threw me in the hand in original post was that the guy who had flopped the set of 5`s only called the min raise from the guy who was flushing.

Re: Online vs Live

I have played quite a few live MTT`s but only once full ring. The sb was the same as the bb (which I have never heard of) £1/£1, so $2/$2 in your money.

Re: Titan Withdrawal question

I have wondered about this myself. I thought about playing HU with a friend and dumping all my chips on him. Then he can do an inter account transfer to put it back into your account.

Re: Should I have folded QQ pf here?

Ok, by reading these replies I get the feeling I am being viewed as playing too tight, which maybe true.

Don't fold.

You could even call your set value, even though QQ is way to strong here.

I disagree with the other posters. His most likely hand is a pocket pair below the kings - probably a mid pair like 77. If he had the King or a FH, why would he go all in after you...
