Few hands from the International Poker Open, Ireland. Deep in tourname

[Dazza1984]

Tournament is a live 125+25 freezeout. 1073 stareted yesterday making it the largest poker tournament ever played in Europe.


Anyways 97 came back today. The bubble broke yesterday so everyone in the money. 93 left when this hand occured.

Blinds are 5k 10k. This is the 2nd orbit of the day and villain is an unknown in the BB. I stole his BB the previous orbit.

I have 345k. Folded to me and I make it 35k with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

Villain thinks for ages and pushes for 100k. I??

Hand 2. 36 player remain from the 1073 that started. Blinds are 8k 15k. Villain is in the small blind. The previous hand I made a standard raise with 10 10 and took down the sb and villains BB. He remarked after that hand that I wouldn't ger away with doing that again. Villain is also a bit peed with me as he doubled me up earlier when I induced a bluff from him on the turn.

My stack is 390k. Villain covers. I raise to 48k in MP1 with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Folded to villain who thinks for a while and says 150k. I??

Also bear in mind that I regard myself as one of the best players left and don't really want to get involved in coinflips.

Thoughts appreciated.
