Default Re: Stars PLO8 Tournament $5000 Guaranteed

[ QUOTE ]
I was the overwhelming chip leader in this tourney with 7 tables to go...Got chopped down into the middle of the pack when I tried to isolate a short stack with QQ98 against a middish stack on the final 2 table bubble (he couldn't laydown AK27, unsooted after limping in the CO)...

Mananged to chip back up to 5th outta 13 and then this hand came up...Villian is a good tourney player, who had raised the previous 2 hands...

Any hand with a low potential is even money with the greatest high only hand when it comes to pushing.

For example KKQJ is 43:57 dog vs 2578, so your isoraise was just spewing.

And berating someone for not laying down A27K is just absurd its the second best fliping hand right sfter AA2x, seriously would you lay down KK in holdem preflop.

On bubble the situation is really tough and close, if you think you can steal some pots later maybe fold.
But if villian is loose just make a stand, you cant wait forever and winning the hand and geting the command of the table would be tremeandous on bubble.
