betting the flop actually has slightly more value than 3 betting.
for instance if you had 88 the flop comes AJK i suppose there is some chance you might fold for his last 150. you are never folding preflop to a 3 bet.
all in all i thinks its ok, it like a stop and go.
mihn is not going to survive long with 300 so might as well try to double up or go home.

This hand cant even compare to the other. Plus what you lost 450. big deal.

DVO, wtf?

Donk,

SB all in for ~9000,

( Bad, absent a read that BB is a total donk, only a better hand calls here)

BB thinks for a while and calls with KQ.


[/ QUOTE ]

BB calls with KQ and it's still a bad push with AA??????????????????? seems to me that SB played it fine and you're the donk for overanalyzing the hand.

Not near the level of any of these hands, but...

50/100

I raise UTG+1 to 250 with 22. MP and BB call.

Flop: K52r

BB bets 450. I raise to 1200. MP cold-calls. BB calls.

Turn: 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] putting 2 spades on the board.

BB moves in for like 4,000 and I call with my 22.

BB is drawing dead.

I heard about a hand last year right at the beginning of day one where someone opened to 200 at the 25/50 level, and then pushes for 98000 on an ace high flop. then after the villain folds they show AK

From Phil Gordon's podcast--Sound too passive to anyone else?
http://www.byoaudio.com/play/WPs76h7s
The cliff notes:
Hero is BB with AT.
Very loose EP limps, Button limps, Hero checks
flop comes AA4, 2 diamonds. Hero checks, EP checks, Button checks.
Turn comes Q (not d), Hero checks, EP checks, Button bets 150 (pot is 175). Hero calls, EP raises to 450, Button folds, Hero calls. River is a small diamond, Hero checks, EP bets 1000, hero calls.

I'd have expected more from a top pro, but I guess Phil Gordon has always struck me as fairly weak/tight.

Tight guy raises 3x utg at 50/100 I call in the BB with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Flop is K-Q-10 two spades. I check, he bets 500, I ask him to count down his stack which is about 1500 more and I shove (I had about 4k to start the hand). He thinks and thinks, I thought he was folding at first, then thought he might call, finally after a few minutes he shows the table and mucks KK!! Most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. Even if I showed him AJ he still should have called.

His quote after the table expressed their shock, "I just didn't want to bust."

Nice.

Here is one from my short stint in event #4, 1500 limit...

I am sitting on about 3800 in chips, levels are 150/300, I am UTG, have AKo and raise, folded around to Minh Nguyen in the hijack who 3 bets for his last 450 in chips, folded around and i call... He turns over 3c5c... of course he flops a 5 and turns a 5...

I just don't understand why he would do this, he had like 5 more free hands left, and he didn't lose a big one recently either, he had been low for a while.

[/ QUOTE ]

Reread the title of the post. Badly played hands. Just cause you've got it in your head that TAG means weak-tight and that waiting for the nuts with 7bb is the way to go doesn't mean everyone else does. If he is certain he has two live cards then he might as well, no reason to wait for KT only to be dominated.

[/ QUOTE ]
If the ante is 50 and you raised to 900, he was getting 1.7-1. This is not one of the worse plays, but I don't like it. Early position raiser has a pp frequently, so he is significantly behind pot odds. Calling wuth 53s is good when real short stacked.

Open push any two.

Still silly to post this a a worst play.

Here's a doozy fromn the first hour at my table on day 1B:

Early position limper comes in for 50. Middle position player raises to 200. Folds back to limper, who calls.

Flop Js Jh 9c

limper checks. MP bets 200. Limper raises to 800. MP raises to 3k. Limper shoves. MP thinks for about 2 minutes and calls, showing AJ.

Limper shows 6d7d, for the 7-high runner straight draw.

[/ QUOTE ]
I don't see what was wrong with limper's play.

Didn't catch the pre-flop play, as I walked by this Main Event table when the flop was out:

Board: 2-3-6

Dodo Brain bets 1K (blinds 100/200)
Other Guy calls

Turn: 7

Dodo Brain bets 4K
Other Guy pushes
Dodo Brain thinks for maybe 20 seconds and calls for most of his stack

Dodo Brain: A-Q
Other Guy: J-J

Jacks hold up.

This was a hand at my friends table of the main event, day 1a. Blinds 25/50, folded to idiot, he makes it $1500 to go. Yes, thats 30 bbs. He somehow gets a caller. Flop 555, what does the retardo guy do? He pushes and gets called by the other guy! retardo shows AA , other guy shows JJ, gg.

[/ QUOTE ]


He may have over bet and played it more aggressively then he should have, but, according to Harrington, that flop was perfect for a AA.
